Many business leaders have long- and short-term continuity plans that have kept their organizations running as the world has turned upside down. However, they still face a host of extraordinary challenges every day.

The pandemic has prompted these leaders to be more proactive with their business continuity plans. They’re reevaluating and updating them regularly so their businesses are as prepared as possible to deal with the next unexpected situation.

Our clients are no exception. Here are some of the items on our clients’ business continuity checklists and how we are partnering with them to ensure they’re covered.

 

Connect reliably

As businesses deploy more remote working solutions and use more cloud-based collaboration tools they are becoming increasingly dependent on reliable network connectivity. We’re providing our clients with highly reliable fiber connectivity solutions backed by powerful service-level agreements (SLAs) that are built to support their needs now and whenever the next unexpected challenge arises.

 

Scale as needed

Our clients are finding that to ensure business continuity in unpredictable times, they need technology solutions that scale to support the increased bandwidth required by a distributed work environment. We’re enabling our clients to meet this need with Dedicated Fiber InternetEthernet and other scalable connectivity solutions.

 

Secure connections

With more employees connecting remotely comes more security risks. Many of our clients are revisiting their business continuity plans to ensure they have what’s needed to mitigate these risks. We’re helping them with our security solutions, which provide secure, remote access to data and site-to-site VPN connections, and safeguard networks with reliable firewalls that identify and block threats.

 

Collaborate virtually

To keep employees as productive as they would be in a traditional office setting, our clients are using collaboration tools. We’re supporting this effort with our cloud-based Unified Communications (UC) service, which is delivered via our private, secure, fiber network. UC includes 24/7/365 support and access to local technicians.
