The 2022 analysis of the U.S. Wholesale voice/data market covers both metro and long-haul wholesale services. The study offers quantifiable metrics on current wholesale trends, as well as real-time insights into shifting purchasing dynamics and buying priorities. The study allows carriers to benchmark their performance against the broader U.S. Wholesale industry, and individual competitors, to better understand their operational and product strengths and weaknesses and hone their value proposition and opportunity areas.

Network Performance and Price are top of mind for wholesale customers when making a final buying decision, but customer facing operations and Ease of Doing Business serve to differentiate providers in a highly competitive market. Rising bandwidth demand continues to push wholesale buyers to spend more on high-capacity Wavelength, Ethernet, and Internet Access, while Legacy Private Line spend is declining to a negative net spend.

Among secondary wholesale products, respondents indicated higher penetration rates for Colocation, but DDoS Mitigation and Managed Security rated highest for future purchase intent.

ATLANTIC-ACM recognizes the top ILEC / Large Cable and CLEC / Midsized and Under Cable players in each major operational category, as well as for the highest combined average for quality and price ratings (value) in data and voice.
