Reliable and fast internet is the backbone of successful businesses throughout Reading and Leicester.
Whether you’re a small or large enterprise, connectivity through broadband drives everything from communication and collaboration to customer service and operational efficiency.
As a forward-thinking telecoms provider, we are proud to announce that full-fibre broadband with speeds of up to 900Mbps is now available in Leicester and Reading, bringing transformative benefits to local businesses.
And lightning-fast speeds are just one of the benefits, but there are many others…
1. Enhanced productivity and efficiency
Cloud storage and software have become integral to business operations. Whether it’s collaborating on Google Workspace, accessing files in Dropbox, or using Microsoft Azure, full-fibre ensures instantaneous access to cloud-based platforms.
Seamless remote working is also a key benefit of high-speed broadband as businesses can support remote and hybrid working models more effectively. Employees can log in from home, share large files, and collaborate in real-time without worrying about sluggish connections.
2. Reliability
In any business today, there is nothing more frustrating than losing broadband connection. It not only affects your online activities but in businesses using VoIP telephone systems, it can also mean losing the ability to make or receive calls.
Fibre-optic cables are far less susceptible to interference and degradation than traditional and very old copper lines, offering a massively more reliable and stable connection. This is critical for businesses where even a few minutes of downtime can lead to significant losses and frustrations.
For customer-facing operations, this reliability can improve the overall customer experience, leading to greater satisfaction and retention.
4. Improved security
In an era of increasing cyber threats, data security is a top priority for businesses of all sizes. Full-fibre broadband can enhance your security by providing a stable platform for secure data transmission and real-time monitoring.
Full-fibre enables businesses to use more advanced security tools and protocols, such as firewalls, encryption, and VPNs, without compromising on speed or performance.
A faster, more reliable connection allows IT teams to monitor network traffic in real-time, helping to identify and respond to potential security threats more quickly.
5. Full-Fibre supports digital transformation
As businesses adopt digital tools and technologies, from artificial intelligence to Internet of Things (IoT) devices, having a high-speed, robust internet connection becomes essential. Full-fibre broadband is essential in supporting this digital transformation.
Businesses in sectors such as retail, healthcare and manufacturing can benefit from full-fibre by adopting new technologies that rely on fast, high-bandwidth internet. For example, IoT devices that track inventory, manage equipment or monitor customer behaviour need a fast and reliable connection to function optimally.
Access to fast internet also allows businesses to leverage big data analytics, using real-time data to make informed decisions and improve operational efficiency.
6. Boosting local business growth in Leicester and Reading
For businesses in Leicester and Reading, the rollout of full-fibre broadband means more than just faster internet. It’s an opportunity to grow and compete in a digital-first economy. It places businesses in Leicester and Reading in a highly competitive position.
7. Cost-effective connectivity for long-term growth
While upgrading to full-fibre broadband may seem like a significant investment, the long-term benefits far outweigh the costs. With faster speeds, increased productivity, and fewer disruptions, businesses can experience improved operational efficiency and better bottom-line performance.
Full fibre can reduce the need for expensive on-site IT infrastructure, as businesses can move more processes to the cloud. This helps cut down on hardware costs and maintenance.
As Reading and Leicester businesses grow, your internet needs will increase. Full-fibre broadband provides the scalability you need to accommodate more employees, devices, and services without additional overhead.
So, quite a lot more than lightning-fast speed!
