paradox
The services become more complex while customer interest in simplicity grows. Maybe not such a paradox. MSOs just need to offer more sophisticated solutions than what they do at SMB level, but avoid the confusion (in billing, rates, compliance, etc.) that may prevail in status quo products from competitors. And show enterprises how to save money.

Re: paradox
@MIke in what way does it seek to tap into the healthcare sector? Would that be for insurance companies, physicians, or something else?
Re: paradox
Hospitals and satellite offices, the transferring of large files such as X-rays. Maybe even video consultations to a home-based patient.

Re: paradox
@Mike I see, so they would have to be sure their systems are Hipaa compliant.

Re: paradox
@Mike, that would be a great industry for them. X-rays and increasingly telehealth is becoming a service providers are moving into as well as insurers are paying for. But the healthcare industry will definitely want deep expertise, as they want proven systems that help them deliver care more efficiently.
If they do develop their niche, they can ultimately play a role in the use of home health devices and IoT - would be a great market.

Re: paradox
@Ariella, absolutely correct! I also believe that healthcare will want deep security capabilities as well - a weakness they are trying to address.

Re: paradox
Nothing brand new here. One of Charter's early marquis biz/services customers in Wisconsin was Marshfield Clinics - a couple of hospitals, several dozen other locations. Providing a complex network strong enough to handle imaging, data records, etc., they won that account from incumbents years ago. Assuming it's still live.

Money, Money, Money
I wonder what the cost would be to enterprises and how it would affect (if at all) the cost to the average consumer.
Also I wonder if it would lead to faster overall improvements on the network.
