Home Workers Shun Large ISP's
Posted: 01st Sep, 2005 By: MarkJ
The latest Point Topic research finds that many tech-savvy home workers ignore larger ISPs because of their inability to meet the high standards demanded of them:
A survey of more than 2,000 UK workers suggests that 5.5 million people work from home in the UK, and 70 per cent of those use the internet as part of their job.
But the market share of smaller ISPs in this group is 50 per cent higher than the national average, indicating that these workers are not happy with the service provided by large ISPs.
"This reflects the importance these people place on their internet connection, their data and their PCs," said Tim Johnson, chief executive at Point Topic. "If it's critical to our business it seems that we're more prepared to spend than if it's the family photo album that's at risk."
