WHICH DATA SERVICE FOR YOUR BUSINESS?Businesses of all sizes choose to use our Data Services to meet a variety of needs. Here are some typical examples of how our Data Services can help your business:
Businesses looking to adopt cloud based services – Businesses of all sizes are already in the cloud (IP Telephony, hosted applications like SharePoint or Salesforce, even remotely backing up individual PCs). But as this trend increases, so does the need for high performance, reliable and fast connections. Our family of services provides businesses with this essential foundation.
Businesses that want to combine voice and data – Whether an office has multiple ISDN2 channels with SDSL, or ISDN30 and a leased line, great cost savings can be made by consolidating internet and voice to one high performance and highly available connection, which is managed and monitored 24/7.
Business demand for broadband usage increases between 20%-50% each year – Broadband services and applications continue to evolve to the growing demands of business. As you use more applications and services, it is good to know that we have a range of Data Services that meet your business needs for growth. We regularly review and look to improve existing products and provide options which you can easily change to.
Businesses that have a high data requirement – With the introduction of EFM, more and more businesses can take advantage of the high speeds and impressive SLAs that Ethernet can offer, without breaking their communications budget.
Businesses looking at large-scale IP telephony deployments – For large voice deployments, using multiple ISDN30 circuits is no longer the ideal solution. SIP trunking offers significant cost savings, flexibility and resilience over and above ISDN30, but it needs the right underlying connectivity. Our Converged Ethernet, when combined with SIP trunking or Hosted IP Telephony, gives an unrivalled end-to-end service that larger businesses can rely on.
