Asentinel-Sponsored Survey Makes the Case for Telecom Lifecycle Management in Face of Recession

MEMPHIS, Tennessee (July 25, 2008) – The results of Aberdeen Group's latest survey, Slashing Telecom Expenses in a Looming Recession, show that the majority of best-in-class companies have the technology to support telecom contract negotiations and enforcement, have a centralized telecom inventory, and have C-level, interdepartmental involvement in their telecom cost reduction plans in place especially during uncertain economic times.

Asentinel, as a presenting sponsor of the survey, is not surprised that the country's industry leaders have placed such value on Telecom Lifecycle Management.

"In the face of a recession, the 3 to 6 percent of corporate revenues that the total cost of ownership for enterprise telecom represents becomes even more important," said David C. Perdue, Asentinel CEO. "Every telecom dollar can make the difference in your company's bottom line, employment and quality of life on the job. Telecom Lifecycle Management insures enterprises get a complete, long-range picture of their telecom spending, and precise control over every aspect of telecom costs."

Nearly 200 companies participated in the survey. To access a complimentary report, visit www.asentinel.com and click on the survey link on the homepage.
