Three reasons to choose optical fiber broadband

The most important thing for mobile operators to care about is the quality of service. Over 37% of global clients says poor connection speed is their reason to change of provider. Which is why offering optical fiber broadband speeds has become a factor to keep costumers fidelity.

1.  How we do business has changed dramatically over the past decade with remote working and real time reporting now being the norm.

The importance of consistent uninterrupted connection speeds for all business users across all platforms is consequently crucial. It supports all aspects of business operation from application access, cloud-based software, downloading/uploading large files and research to video conferencing and telecom communication services.

Reduced bandwidths due to peaks in traffic are no longer acceptable and as consumer usage increases, with the popularity of e-commerce and social media, standard ADSL analogue connections are becoming inadequate for business use.

2. Enhancing customer experience is high on the agenda now, so how customers interact with your web based services is crucial to maintaining customer loyalty and satisfaction.

If employee tasks are mainly web based, then the bottom line is faster, downloading and uploading will improve efficiency and company productivity.

Thanks to remote working, multiple office sites and customer preferring online screen collaboration, the need for video conferencing over a reliable fast network is key.

3. Service options for the majority of businesses now point toFiber broadband and leased lines.

Both options carry a one off installation cost and a monthly service charge. However, a private leased line will set you back more than a fiber broadband line, but unlike standard broadband connections, where you share bandwidth with others, the bandwidth on a Leased Line is exclusively yours.

What’s more, the speed is guaranteed, so it won’t slow down, even at peak times.Add the ability to flex your bandwidth up or down, with prior notice, and the benefits of a leased line start to add up.

These services cost more than a typical broadband connection, but there are key benefits such as:

• Consistent speeds.
• Network exclusivity.
• Service level agreements.
• Priority maintenance back up

If your needs are smaller and you are just looking for a decent, reliable connection then fiber broadband will be the solution for you. It’s up to nine times faster than the original copper to wire network used for standard broadband and is an attractive option for most businesses.

If you have a small business located in the UK, you can get financial help from the government broadband initiative to upgrade to fiber broadband or a leased line. The scheme applies to certain cities in the UK so you do have to check eligibility.
