Globe Telecom Inc. registered dramatic growth in its fixed line data business during the first quarter of the year, hauling in P1.2 billion in broadband revenues, up 84 percent year on year, while its fixed line data revenues reached P831 million, up 16 percent versus the same period in 2009.

Robust demand from the local outsourcing industry helped sustain the growth momentum in the telco’s corporate data business. Globe Business, the company’s corporate arm, remained strong in the market with the continued expansion of the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and services sector.

Furthermore, its wireline data business continued to increase, fueled by the expansion of Globe Business’ network of high-speed data nodes, transmission links and international bandwidth capacity that serve the requirements of enterprise customers.

“We hope to maintain the gains we have achieved in the enterprise market by focusing on the needs of our customers and continuously investing in our network. Enterprise customers value premium service and require more capacity and quality network services,” says Gil B. Genio, Head of Globe Business.

“We continue to serve the growing demand of the BPOs especially for corporate data services as we bring more bandwidth and faster connections to enterprise customers,” explained Jesus C. Romero, Head of Enterprise Segments at Globe Business.

“We’ve introduced innovative solutions such as Carrier Ethernet services that conform to MEF 9 (Metro Ethernet Forum) specifications for service providers, improved international capability through our submarine cable systems, Hosted Contact Center Solution and Enhanced Managed Voice Solutions that would address their need for cost efficiency and reliable connectivity in the business,” he went on.

“All these we make available to enterprise customers through our more responsive and customer focused account engagement framework.”

Globe Business provides network infrastructure and managed solutions as well as other telecommunications services to enterprises big and small.

Among the latest innovations that Globe Business introduced in the market is Business +, which offers various postpaid subscriptions with unlimited call and text features that can be customized to one’s business needs. Business + gives enterprise customers the flexibility to subscribe only to what they want and pay only for what they need.
