Employees depend on the company network for almost everything.
Cloud applications, VoIP phones, Microsoft Teams, printers, servers and Wi-Fi all rely on stable connectivity.
Moving files between computers or servers should not take unnecessarily long.
Older switches and network cabling may limit performance.
Employees should not have to move around the office searching for wireless signal.
Professional Wi-Fi should provide appropriate coverage and capacity.
Not every internet problem is caused by the internet provider.
Firewalls, routers, switches or internal configuration may be contributing to instability.
Network equipment can continue operating for many years, but old devices may
- Stop receiving security updates
- Support slower speeds
- Become unreliable
- Lack modern functionality
Overview
A network originally designed for ten employees may struggle after the organisation grows to fifty users, IP phones, printers, access points and other connected devices.
Modern businesses often require
- Guest Wi-Fi
- VLANs
- VPN access
- Firewall filtering
- Remote offices
- Cloud connectivity
Older network designs may not support these requirements effectively.
