ADSL Benefits

ADSL - The Benefits

Firstly consider, the use of ADSL for Internet access on the Internet Guys ADSL service.

There are two outstanding benefits to accessing the Internet by ADSL.

1. Speed

Just how fast Internet Guys ADSL is pretty well covered in the section Incredibly Fast.

Frequent narrow-band Internet users often jokingly refer to the World Wide Web as the "World Wide Wait" because it can sometimes take a long time to download information at normal narrowband speeds.

This means that graphics, streaming video, and multimedia websites are often simply out of reach of many Internet users.

Within minutes of first using Internet Guys ADSL, you will find a whole new world of content available to you that was previously just too much of a nuisance to even consider downloading. Be it a video news item or a streaming video of an hour long annual general meeting, product launch, training or other business meeting, Internet Guys ADSL will open a whole new world to you.


2. Savings

If you think high speed broadband Internet is too expensive, then think again!

You just have to have a look at the savings you make to see how affordable broadband Internet really is.

With Internet Guys ADSL, you don't pay for the time you spend online. Plus, there's no additional telephone line rental.

But there's more…

Because, Internet Guys ADSL is permanently connected to your existing telephone line, your home or business telephone line won't be dominated by your Internet use.

That means that you can save on having to have that second telephone line for the Internet that so many households or businesses have found necessary.

But there's more…

Internet Guys ADSL charges are not based on the number of hours that you spend on the Internet. Your on 24hrs a day.

(B) Fantastic Telecommuting

Where ADSL technology really hits the home runs for corporations is in how it makes the much-heralded benefits of telecommuting so very achievable.

Telecommuting, or Flexible Working as it is sometimes called, is becoming more and more a mainstream business arrangement every day. Research indicates that as at January 2001, over 1,000,000 workers in Canada had flexible working agreements with their employers, enabling them to work from home. In the USA, some 20 million employees now work from home.

The business benefits of such flexible working are many:-

  • greater productivity at home. (Away from the distractions of the office)
  • reduced absenteeism. (Staff able to attend to personal/urgent issues but be on call/able to work.)
  • staff retention. Telework is becoming a make-or-break issue in employee career decisions. If you have recruitment or retention problems, consider EKOS Research findings: 33% of Canadians would choose telework over a salary raise: 43% would quit for another job that allows telework.
  • retains female employees. (Companies improve their retention rate of women returning from maternity leave from 50% to 90%.)
  • attracts the best employees. (Many companies are using it as a recruitment tool)
  • highly suitable for sales work. (proposal preparation and customer telephone calls can be done from home; easier and quicker access to customers on home side of town.)
  • More time spent on client premises. (Consultants are encouraged to spend more time on client premises to build customer intimacy.)
  • Less travel time. (avoiding peak hours, less wasted time spent in car, better morale, makes job attractive.)

Technology is only part of the picture so we have provided you with a link to Innovisions Canada where you can get more information on:

  • What are the implications?
  • Which jobs are best suited to flexible working?
  • What are the costs associated with setting up a home office?
  • What are the issues facing managers with staff working from home?

However, the advent of ADSL enormously increases the viability of telecommuting because of how high speed access into your corporate network can be so easily and economically provided. One ordinary old telephone line at home will carry both a telephone conversation and very fast network access to your corporate office.

Because ADSL is "always on" as long as the user's PC is switched on, email becomes a live activity just as it is in the corporate office with all the same features that you would expect in the office.

It is as if the end user is in the office - but your company is not paying for the floorspace and has a happier, more productive employee as well!
