Are carriers addressing their systems? We hear “yes”. Tangoe expects carriers to increase their proficiency and become more adept at offering data pooling as soon as the second half of this year. Once there, we expect to see data pool structures that drive real cost savings.

Conclusion: In the short term, a well-negotiated, custom, unlimited data rate plan is the optimal way to go in terms of both cost and ease of management. At this time, only organizations with very high usage volume have the leverage and opportunity to embark on this new frontier of data pooled pricing. Looking forward, however, we expect more options for cost effective data pooling to be made available by at least some carriers to all.
