What’s internet downtime really costing you?

by | May 16, 2017

More and more companies are moving to the cloud. With business applications being online and more accessible, how are you ensuring that your business is always online to avoid costly downtime?

Thinking about your business, what online applications are you using?

  • Accounting – Xero, Quickbooks, MYOB and Microsoft Dynamics
  • Email & Collaboration – Microsoft Office 365, Google Apps for Work, Skype for Business, Google Hangouts
  • File, Sync & Share –  Dropbox, OneDrive for Business, Autotask Workplace & Sharepoint
  • Online Meetings – GoToMeeting, Webex, Zoom and Skype for Business
  • ERP – Pronto, Microsoft Dynamics, Netsuite, SAP Business One, Sage and MYOB EXO

How are you protecting your business connectivity from downtime? Many businesses I speak to have not thought about their connectivity to their core business systems. The cost of not having good connectivity for both a primary and backup could cost your business tens of thousands of dollars.

What’s the real cost of downtime? 

  • 10 Staff for 4 Hours at $30/Hour = $1,200
  • 20 Staff for 6 Hours at $40/Hour = $4,800
  • 30 Staff for 8 Hours at $50/Hour = $12,000

Summit Internet delivers AWESOME phone system to Sunshine Coast Sports & Exercise

by | May 11, 2017

When Sunshine Coast Sports & Exercise recently moved in to a new office, they did so without a phone system able to support their business.

Summit Internet through partner Lucidity IT enabled Dr Will Craddock and his team with the FlexPBX Hosted Phone System getting them active within days, not weeks. New phone numbers were issued within 24 hours and handsets shipped to site within 7 days.

“This system is truly awesome!  It’s the most flexible phone system I’ve ever seen. The team at Summit Internet were able to assist us with our call flow setup as well as enabling our business with softphones using Counterpath Bria on our iPhones. I would recommend this to any new or existing business looking for a new phone system.”
Dr Will Craddock, Director – Sunshine Coast Sports & Exercise
