Unified Bandwidth Management

What Is UBM?

Nearly all organisations have an Internet connection, unfortunately problems with the Internet are just as common. Many organisations are unaware how much their connection really costs them and have no business continuity plan if they lose their connection. Some of the most common Internet problems include:

• Limited Bandwidth - A slow Internet connection speed has a knock-on effect on various aspects of an organisation and customers. With newer applications requiring sufficient bandwidth such as VoIP, organisations need to ensure they have the bandwidth capacity for speed and audio/visual quality.
• Control - As the number of end users or office sites grows, an organisation requires additional control of their Internet connection to ensure more efficient use of available bandwidth capacity for usage and applications.
• Reliability - A single point of failure such as a single ISP connection puts organisations at risk and can result in various consequences should the connection fail. Ensuring a reliable Internet connection is vital especially with the increasing dependency on the Internet for services and operations.
• Scalability - Technology advances quickly and it is crucial for organisations need to make most of their IT investment and require a solution that grows with their needs and requirements for the best ROI.

These are just a few of the challenges that are faced by organisations on a daily basis. With the Internet used as an essential tool and central to an organisation for a number of purposes, organisations are struggling to cope with these changes and gain the most from their Internet connection
