Service providers today face a number of customer challenges:
- Cellular service coverage is still a source of consumer dissatisfaction, especially at home and in the office-two locations that account for half of all mobile phone calls.
- Wireline service providers are losing their core voice customers to wireless substitutuion. They seek alternate revenue-generating services.
