Business Continuity
In business, communication is critical. It facilitates everything we do. How long could your business last without it?
Coms Direct’s business continuity solutions are designed to guarantee your company doesn’t go M.I.A. Our range of business broadband, 3G and WiMAX services combine to provide resilience against the internal and external threats to your connectivity and communications infrastructure.
Circuit Backup
In conjunction with your main broadband line, Coms Direct supplies a contingency backup line that protects against unexpected connectivity blackouts.
We use different network service provider connections to ensure that problems on one line will not detrimentally effect the connectivity to a customer site. When a primary line outage occurs, the router seamlessly fails over to the backup line and work continues unaffected. These backup lines can be setup based on any of the following technologies:
- Secondary BT broadband backup line
- Secondary non-BT broadband backup line
- WiMAX backup line
- 3G data backup line
The type of backup line implemented depends on the criticality of the business connection being used and the flexibility needed.
Automatic Failover
With an Coms Direct business continuity solution you can setup your network for automatic failover should your primary internet line go down. This requires no manual intervention as the routing system simply realises when a connection is lost and switches to the backup line seamlessly.
For some circuit technologies there might be a need to switch over a few cables but still, it’s easy!
In many instances the line changeover is seamless to the end user. They won’t even know there has been an outage.
Active Monitoring
Coms Direct remotely monitors all routers to ensure any potential switchover problems are highlighted and fixed before they happen. We even back our services with a next business day replacement service for any faulty equipment.
With Coms Direct looking out for your business, you can be sure that whatever happens, we’ll back you up.
