"Increasingly, service providers consider mobile analytics as vital to achieving cost savings and productivity enhancements. Mobile analytics answers various questions, including how many people use particular operating systems, the types of devices they use, how long they spend on sites, and more."

There is no question that service providers and other brands are shifting dollars to the mobile channel, said Culver. "There needs to be a sense of urgency for service providers and others, in terms of social media, mobile Web, and mobile applications. This not only includes the need to shift dollars to mobile analytics, but it also includes the need to implement and use the mobile channel for consumer and customer acquisition and retention," she adds.
