We are all familiar with the NBN roll out. We are all familiar with “peak time” issues. As a business you need fast and reliable internet for many reasons and not just in non-peak hours;
- Saving time – Staff costs are often the largest expense item. By ensuring that your staff aren’t waiting for pages to load and programs to execute due to slow internet speeds, your business will be significantly more productive
- Enabling all digital technologies – Fast internet enables video collaboration, cloud based applications and VoIP (Voice over internet protocol), which most business people would say are essential tools to remain competitive in today’s economy
What to do?
Some large businesses will be able to justify the cost of a dedicated private fibre connection, giving them loads of speed and capacity. The majority of small and medium sized businesses, however, won’t. By connecting to the standard NBN residential network they will be sharing their connection with many other businesses and residential customers. This is not an NBN issue, rather it is created by the internet service provider you choose. The more customers they allow to share the capacity, the more money they make. This unfortunately means that the internet speeds on their plans is a theoretical speed as it is subject to peaks in local demand. If you are a business located in a tourist destination, you will suffer from these peaks in demand in the school holidays for example.
This is the principle reason that to date, OCB has chosen not to be an NBN reseller. We are now, however, pleased to announce that OCB has been able to build a product with the NBN, that offers a business grade connection and that we are very happy to promote and recommend to our business clients. With no contention on the product, you are not sharing your speed with anyone but your own team. If we say its 100 Mbps, it is, regardless of whether its 3 am or 4 pm. It isn’t shared locally amongst other users so it doesn’t slow down; school holidays or not!
This exclusive OCB NBN Prime product will deliver the speeds that you need, all day every day. No slow downs, no average speeds; you get what you pay for.
