Benefits for Enterprises
- A broadband connection for enterprises means an average of 12 percent improved efficiency compared with narrowband.
- Video-conferencing and electronic transmission of documents saves time and money – workers will travel less, and the worry of tracking document deliveries will disappear.
- Broadband can also increase your company’s efficiency by providing instant access to information and resources, and improve flexibility in working times and structures.
- Employees who have their business applications with them can better serve clients, immediately – anywhere, at any time.
- Enterprises can make the most of specialists by locating them centrally and using video consultation. This means more people benefit from their expertise and less travel is required.
- Broadband allows healthcare institutions to provide telemedicine. Such services are becoming more important as the world’s population grows older.
Broadband-enabled enterprise services come in many shapes and sizes – from document delivery to video-conferencing and telemedicine. We know how important efficiency is to a successful enterprise and have committed ourselves to providing broadband at its best.
As one example, the Swedish construction company Skanska has 3500 projects going on at any given time. Using an HSPA-powered mobile-broadband service, project managers can more easily reach supplier systems, procurement and business systems as well as architectural drawings. HSPA coverage is available in 90 percent of Sweden.
Other broadband-enabled enterprise services are also on the rise. Mobile e-mail is available, for example, on 2 billion mobile phones around the world. Video conferencing benefits not only corporations, but also healthcare institutions. Telemedicine applications can be used for diagnosis, consulting and transmission of medical images in real time.
Australian operator Telstra’s enterprise customers are experiencing productivity gains thanks to its mobile-broadband services. The services that are making an impact include remote access to corporate networks, access to the internet while travelling and video telephony for technical troubleshooting.
