More Service Bundles

One Communications, a CLEC in the Northeast, has announced managed service suites,

including its OneSolutions Managed IP PBX and OneSolutions Managed Router solutions. The suite is designed to provide enterprise-like capabilities for telecommunications hardware, configuration, setup and installation along with management, monitoring and maintenance services, and priced to fit into the budgets of smaller businesses. Both new services have achieved the Cisco Powered designation.

And then there's Verizon Biz.

"Verizon Business is now offering bundles of VoIP, Internet, data and customer premise equipment services for mid-market and smaller businesses. The bundles, which the company is calling "BizPaks," are aimed at single-location firms that want to deploy all basic business communications in one go. [biz news]

Everyone is doing it. By adding additional services and bundling the price, you make the comparisons tougher while packing the bundle appear more valuable.
