Business broadband internet access

The majority of the modern business world relies totally on broadband email and internet access. Demanding clients need instant access to your staff or products and you need instant access to your suppliers. If you’ve experienced an interruption in your service before, you’ll know how utterly helpless and frustrated you feel until it is fixed. If you’ve been lucky enough to avoid it, you’ll probably find it all too easy to imagine the difficulties it would bring.

Connection speed is critical but most lines offer an actual data transfer speed lower than the advertised headline speed. We can advise on the best packages for download speed, upload speed (which for business connections is typically faster than a normal connection) and what level of service and provider support is appropriate and cost effective.

We can recommend and install the most appropriate high speed business internet solution for your organisation’s needs. If you’re a new business, then we can also help you set up your business email accounts to ensure the most reliable service.

Having a working email system doesn’t necessarily mean its setup correctly and will continue to work faultlessly. Common issues encountered are:

If your server or broadband are down will emails people send to you bounce giving the sender an undeliverable message?
We’ll make sure they queue up for delivery for when you’re back online

Are you at risk from blacklisting? Your email server can get blacklisted as a source of spam for a number of reasons which are preventable. If this happens it can be very disruptive and in some cases can prevent you from sending or receiving emails for days or, worst case, weeks since it can sometimes be very difficult to resolve.

6 important business internet and email concerns:

Matching business broadband internet package to your business size and level of use to ensure you can work fast and efficiently.
Installing email server software to enable your company to effectively manage all company email communication. This keeps all your email and calendar data in one place so that it can be backed up daily.
Implementing a system that allows you to share calendars and access email whilst out of the office using laptops, PDAs and other internet enabled devices.
Using the latest, self-updating anti-virus software to secure your computers against virus attacks and malware.
Business broadband means your company’s computers are permanently connected ‘round the clock’ to the internet, so fitting a suitable firewall is essential to prevent unauthorised access to your computer network from outside your business.
Implementing failsafe systems to ensure you can keep working, and keep in contact with your customers, even in the event of a connection failure.
