Don’t throw away money, but rather invest in your business!

If your business depends on the Internet to run. It does not take long for $50 bills to disappear from your bank account. It feels painless because nobody is taking them from you or sticking you up. Yet money keeps going down the drain.

For example, if you have three employees making $16.67/hr. and they cannot do their work, every hour they cannot, costs you $50. You can figure out your costs by dividing your average payroll by the hour. Regardless of your dependence on the Internet. This is an honest number for any business owner to calculate.  

Hourly payroll figures as they relate to operational requirements will help you make better decisions. You will understand the cost of downtime so you can budget at a level of risk you feel comfortable with. This number also helps calculate the rewards (ROI) of increased productivity. If you’re interested in digging into this a little further, ask Greg about the labor load calculator.

To combat the losses of Internet outages, we include a failover Internet device with our network bundles. This secondary emergency Internet connection, is connected to a “Swiss Army Knife” firewall called an Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro. One connection is tied to your main provider, the other is on stand-by until it’s needed.

Other benefits are high-performance routing, VPN capability, and enhanced web filtering.

VPNs allow you to access your company network from anywhere you have Internet access. If you have other locations, you can connect to your sites. They make working from home safer.

Web filtering adds security that stops threats from getting into your network. You can also select several types of content you want to block. One of the more common categories that business owners choose to filter out is social media except for those that need it. (i.e., your marketing department) Timewasters like these can cause serious financial losses and you might not even realize it.

We love the Dream Machine Pro for small businesses because it is cloud-managed and provides us with alerts when you have Internet connectivity or other networking issues. Unlike other comparable products, our network bundle updates the software often. They are also applied to devices on an automatic schedule. Firmware updates are essential for all networking devices, especially firewalls.

Many other competitive products do not have the “Always Connected” possibility. Using them can cause you to throw away a ton of money before realizing it is happening to you. Choose one of our network bundles. You can experience an Always Connected Internet.
