And that world could be in the middle of a city or the middle of nowhere.
Here in the North East we’re blessed with vibrant cities and stunning countryside, but no matter where we live or where we do business, there is something that we all need.
Connectivity.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s streaming a film at home or running an international conglomerate, if the connectivity is either slow, non-existent or unreliable, it’s not only frustrating, it can also ruin your potential to work successfully.
At some point you realise that you need to do something
.and when you do it’s very easy to simply go for a recognised provider who advertises on TV.
But…think again. You do have an option.
And that option is Commsworld.
Commsworld may be a name that’s new to a lot of you, but they are expanding in the North East and have already secured a 20- year contract to provide connectivity to Northumberland County Council.
They have contracts across the UK but have predominantly worked in Scotland from their HQ in Edinburgh. However that has changed in recent years, and they are already recognised as a leading privately-owned UK-wide provider of networking solutions.
And if you need some recommendations as to which businesses and organisations use using Commsworld services, how does the Scottish Government, Edinburgh and Glasgow airports and City of Edinburgh Council sound? They all require mission critical infrastructure, and they put their trust in Commsworld. Recommendations don’t come any bigger.
“Trust and security are vitally important to any person and any business or organisation, and it is something on which we base our reputation,” said Commsworld Regional Director, Steve Wood. “For example, with Northumberland County Council we provide connectivity across the council’s locations…and that includes over 100 schools, many of which are in remote areas. Participating schools are gaining access to the fastest full fibre internet connection with speeds from 1Gb to 10GB per school. This includes full reliability, enhanced security and safeguarding support with a fully filtered real-time connectivity to ensure all pupils are kept safe online. We really are bringing the 21st Century to a lot of these schools.
“We have over 260kms of our own fibre optic cabling across the county which allows us to bring fast and reliable connectivity to SMEs in towns like Alnwick and Morpeth, but also to small businesses in the outlying districts. We work closely with local broadband providers who can link into our network. For example in Northumberland we’ve worked with the Alnwick-based company, Alncom, which allowed us to reach the village communities of Longframlington, Longhorsley and Longhoughton and enable access for more than 120,000 residential and business properties to Fibre To The Premises (FTTP), many of which have never enjoyed access to gigabitcapable fibre networks before.”
Commsworld, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary, could easily be described as a boutique telecoms business which means they have the sort of flexibility and approachable attitude which the bigger firms can only dream about. But they are a national company and are currently experiencing terrific growth across the UK. This is down to the fact that they have over 3500kms of their own core, designated, fibre optic cabling. The Lancashire town of Wigan has just been added to the list of places where Commsworld is now helping businesses have access to safe and secure connectivity.
They’re also keen to get involved with local communities. Here in the North East they’re now sponsoring a couple of youth football teams…Ellington Phoenix U12 boys and the Bedlington U16 girls.
“The importance of reliable, fast connectivity has increased dramatically over the last decade,” said Commsworld Regional Account Manager Gary Ross who looks after our region. “Companies small and large used to invariably have a room with computer servers of varying sizes ticking away. But that has all changed with the advent of the Cloud. Companies now need to be able to work via the Cloud and know that their information is accessible and secure.
“We work extensively with other communications companies to ensure that customers can quickly source our nationwide ultrafast Optical Core Network. It means we can react quickly to install vital connectivity or resolve any problems…for instance, we recently connected a small village in Northumberland in under two weeks.”
Commsworld now has a digital footprint across Northumberland and can now provide you with rapid and secure connectivity. In today’s digital age, staying connected is more crucial than ever. They provide a comprehensive suite of business connectivity services designed to seamlessly enhance your IT strategy.
