According to a recent report by Ofcom, 90% of all UK premises (almost 26 million) can access up to 24Mb/s fixed line broadband, however there are at least 190,000 premises that can’t get 2Mb/s and 2.2 million premises that can’t get 10Mb/s. Locations with less than 2Mb/s broadband speeds are known as slow spots.

The problem

Businesses in areas of slow speed broadband cannot benefit from hosted applications (pay-per-month software, hosted online) such as office applications, telephony, CRM and accountancy packages. They rely on on-site solutions, which need to be serviced and are more expensive.

The solution

4G offers fast, reliable internet connectivity where it is available. The mobile carriers are advertising 90%+ UK 4G coverage, however speeds can vary. SMEs need to review all the mobile networks to see who has the best frequency, highest speed and lowest price to meet their requirements.

Suppliers want access to all packages from all carrier networks, ideally from a single supplier with one ordering platform, so they can create a solution for SMEs. They carefully select routers and 4G data SIM packages to meet exact requirements, where usage is managed and bill shock avoided to compete with the carriers directly.

Jola

We offer all the major carrier network services managed within a single portal called Mobile Manager. It is our online management portal for ordering and managing estates of mobile data SIMs. It is a white label portal which communicates in real-time with all the 4G networks and can be used by both resellers and their end users. It handles SIM activations, ceases, suspensions, reports, alerts and bolt-ons.

We are unique in our approach to bill shock. We do everything in our power to avoid it with backdated bolt-ons, alerts and auto-bolt ons. If you take our managed 4G routers they come with a no bill-shock guarantee as the usage is carefully monitored so users do not go over their allowances.
