Keeping your data online
The way businesses operate these days, having a solid internet connection isn’t just nice to have – it’s a must-have. Companies in Essex and the Southeast of England need seamless internet access to stay competitive, connect with customers, and keep things running smoothly. But getting consistent connectivity isn’t always easy.
Reliable internet is the backbone of modern operations and from chatting with clients and customers to storing data and using cloud apps a stable internet connection is crucial. It supports video calls, fast data transfers, and uninterrupted access to important business systems. It also makes ecommerce, digital marketing and remote work possible.
But working towards reliable internet has challenges. One big issue for companies in Essex and the Southeast is network delays from infrastructure problems, usually with companies like Openreach.
Openreach, a major UK infrastructure provider, delivers internet to businesses and homes. But when networks fail or have delays it raises concerns about how reliable they are. All too often we are hearing Openreach had an outage across the country that disrupted internet for homes and businesses. This left many companies unable to work, showing how dependent they are on connectivity.
Openreach does maintenance and upgrades on their infrastructure which can cause localised network issues for businesses in Essex and the Southeast. Some businesses have had unexpected downtime during Openreach’s work. This impacted their operations and customers. When physical problems happen like damaged cables or faulty connections it can take Openreach a while to fix it. So Businesses are trying different things to deal with network delays and interruptions:
Having a backup internet service ready to go for when the main one fails. This could be a second provider, mobile data (from a SIM backup) or some way to failover to a secondary connection.
Using different internet providers that don't rely on the same infrastructure. This gives them options if one network has an issue
Using monitoring tools to keep an eye on the network performance all the time. They can catch problems early and try to limit downtime.
Voice over IP technology is flexible, so pick a system that can easily and quickly be adopted to staff mobiles (usually via an APP). It lets businesses keep communicating even if the main network fails and could make all the difference if your local competition are also affected by a internet failure.
