WHO ARE OUR DATA SERVICES AIMED AT?
Business demand for broadband usage increases between 20%-50%
each year
Broadband services and applications continue to evolve to the growing demands of business.
Businesses looking at voice and data convergence
Whether an office has multiple ISDN2 channels with SDSL, or ISDN30 and a leased line, great cost savings can be made by consolidating internet and voice to one high performance and highly available connection, which is managed and monitored 24/7.
Businesses with limited budgets, wanting to take advantage of leased line / Ethernet services
With the introduction of EFM, more businesses get to take advantage of the high speeds and impressive SLAs that Ethernet can offer, without breaking their communications budget.
Businesses of all sizes chose to use Pennine Data Services to meet a variety of needs. Here are some typical examples of how Pennine Data Services can help these businesses:
Businesses looking to adopt cloud based services
Businesses of all sizes are already in the cloud (IP Telephony, hosted applications like SharePoint or Salesforce, even remotely backing up individual PCs). But as this trend increases, so does the need for high performance, reliable and fast connections. Our family of services provides businesses with this essential foundation.
As you use more services, it is good to know that Pennine Data Services provide a range of products that meet the business needs for growth. We will regularly review and look to improve existing products and provide options which you can easily regrade to.
Businesses looking at large-scale IP telephony deployments For large voice deployments, using multiple ISDN30 circuits is no longer the de facto solution. SIP trunking offers significant cost savings, flexibility and resilience over and above ISDN30, but it needs the right underlying connectivity.
Pennine Converged Ethernet, when combined with SIP trunking or Hosted IP Telephony gives an unrivalled end-to-end service that big business can rely on.
