Mobile working
For many companies, mobile working is the most obvious way to boost productivity, cut costs and keep their members of staff in close communication. A truly vital tool for modern business, mobile communications can help you get the very best out of your workforce.
Mobile calls
Mobile telephones have been keeping us connected for years, but they do present challenges for business. Having two different lines, with two different numbers, tariffs, contact lists and voice mail inboxes means that there is the potential for confusion and for vital calls to be missed.
Fleet management
There are many advantages to having all your mobile telephones with one provider. This means you can have all your billing in one place, get a better deal on pricing and also manage your fleet more effectively.
Mobile twinning
When someone calls a user’s number, both their mobile and desk phones ring. If the call is missed, a voicemail is left on the desk phone and an email sent to the mobile. Attached to the email is a WAV file of the message.
Fixed-mobile convergence
Fixed-mobile convergence uses just one handset – and just one number. Users have access to the company network, and can use the full functionality of their desk phone wherever they are. Voice messages are stored in just one easily accessible mailbox.
Mobile data
Quick, efficient and highly cost effective, mobile email makes it possible to keep working as you keep moving. Using BlackBerry, Microsoft Windows Mobile or Nokia Intellisync, users can access their inbox as easily and effectively as they would in the office.
These devices are more than just a secure and quick way of picking up emails, though. Contacts, calendar, Internet, IM and tasks are also easy to access. You can also access CRM data and other in-house databases – making it possible to update client and other information immediately.

Mobile broadband
Workers needing access to the Internet can now simply plug in a mobile broadband modem to their laptop. With speeds of up to 7.2Mbps, these modems make working off-site as efficient and effective if being in the office. Plus they can be used on different computers, meaning you can share them between several users as necessary.
