VIA NET.WORKS UK launches two-way broadband services for under £150-a-month
VIA NET.WORKS, a leading provider of business communications services to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), today extended the range and reach of its business broadband services with the launch of VIA Business SDSL. VIA's Business SDSL services are business-grade broadband services offering high-speed two-way communications from 256Kbps to 2Mbps at fixed monthly costs starting from £149 per month*. The services are currently available in major metropolitan areas throughout central and greater London, Yorkshire, Greater Manchester and central Birmingham, with further exchanges to be introduced this year.
"Our competitive, flat-rate pricing brings high-performance broadband within the budget of SMEs," said Nick Callaghan, Managing Director of VIA NET.WORKS UK. "The SME market is becoming bandwidth hungry but cost and reliability are still big worries for them. By driving down the cost of robust, high-speed connections, VIA can deliver more "big company" solutions, such as Virtual Private Networks, to smaller businesses."
VIA Business SDSL services are delivered with e-mail and webmail services included, and a choice of bandwidths: 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 1Mbps and 2Mbps. In addition, VIA's competitively priced Professional SDSL range offers extra features including managed anti-virus and security, advanced monitoring, back-up dial-up connections and web hosting space.
VIA Business SDSL services are ideal for firms that rely heavily on the Internet for communications and commerce, enabling them to send and receive large files quickly, create cost-effective links between branch offices and deliver sophisticated online services, including multimedia services, to customers, staff and partners. Most importantly for businesses, all VIA Business SDSL services have lower contention ratios than ADSL and come with service level agreements that establish network availability and response times to fault reports.
*Pricing is based on VIA Business SDSL 256Kbps service, installation and VAT not included. This information is for guidance only and may be subject to change. Quotations are available by contacting VIA at 0845 330 8000.
