Business Mobile World

 Wednesday, October 14, 2009

A recent survey concluded that the 10 million people in the UK without internet access are missing out on approximately £550 each year in cheaper products and services. The internet is not only a fantastic way to keep in touch, but also the gateway to the best prices and savings.

Many business users don't pay attention to their broadband connection. They take the cheapest deal offered, often using consumer grade broadband. For those that do do some research they may choose a connection with a headline-grabbing download speed. But are you actually getting the speed as promised?

A quick broadband speed test will confirm the maximum download and upload speeds you are actually getting. It could be considerably less than you think. One of the reasons is the contention ratio.

The broadband connection you use is shared by other users. With retail broadband the contention ratio could be 60:1 - in other words up to 60 other people could be using the connection at the same time as you, meaning your speed is greatly reduced. We can offer your business a contention ration of 10:1 (or even 1:1 on your own private line if required).

With download speeds up to 24mbps our business grade broadband is fast, meaning that the days of slow downloads and waiting for pages to load are at an end. Think of all the time that is wasted in your business with slow connections. Faster broadband will save you time and money.

It doesn't have to be expensive. Taken in a package with telephone lines and call cost reductions your business should be saving money each month whilst benefitting from a better broadband experience. Contact us for a free quote.
