According to a recent poll conducted by Comcast, of the 6,237 small and medium sized businesses polled, 78% reported that their business was affected if there internet were to go down while one third of that group says their business shuts down completely. Businesses of any size rely on always-on, reliable Internet connections to run their business, communicate with their customers and keep their employees working.
Regardless of what any carrier boasts as far as uptime, what happens on those occasions when the internet fails? What if there was a way to prevent these types of outages? By upgrading your firewall so it is capable of adding a second internet service provider, you can prevent lost business productivity. When the primary internet fails, the system will automatically failover to the redundant provider. In addition to redundancy in the case of outages, additionally, we can plan for load balancing by direct specific traffic across the 2nd internet provide like VoIP, cloud, video, etc. to improve the functionality and speed for day to day usage.
The Teltek team can source and coordinate the new internet provider, run any necessary cabling required and provide, install, program and support the new firewall and manage on going ISP service requests.
