ABI RESEARCH NOW OFFERS SUBSCRIBERS ONLINE ACCESS TO ITS PROPRIETARY DATABASES

ABI Research is pleased to announce that subscribers to its Wireless Quarterly Services now have instant online entry to its working databases, enjoying real-time access to the numerical and qualitative information underlying the Services' detailed reports and analyses.

When analysts first began examining technology markets, business leaders worked in a different world from the one we inhabit today. In those days, with their more leisurely pace of change, market studies were updated annually and delivered only in printed form.

Today that's just not good enough. New products are introduced daily, market cycles are drastically shorter, business alliances form and reform with dizzying speed. Tactical and even strategic decisions can't wait for information delivery to catch up.

Improved database technologies and the Internet now allow us to do better. ABI Research's goal is to give our clients the information they need as quickly and directly as possible.

Our experts constantly update the vast databases of information they collect in their research: the latest about worldwide vendors, contract and product announcements, ASPs, subscriber forecasts, deployments, and more.

Through an intuitive Web-based GUI, Wireless Service subscribers can do their own data mining, selecting a mix of technologies, timeframes, regions, vendors and dollar values, filtering, sorting and formatting the information as required. Then, with just one click on a button, they can export a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet file, ready to be put to work.

"It's a great opportunity for subscribers who really want to 'get their hands dirty' with the market data our researchers collect," said ABI Research's President, Tim Archdeacon. "We see this as the wave of the future in research delivery, and we're proud to be leading the way."
