Why businesses are switching from consumer broadband
Consumer broadband is built for households, not businesses. It has no SLA, no guaranteed fix times, no static IP address, and is shared across thousands of users in your area. A single day of downtime can cost a small business an average of £8,000 in lost productivity and missed sales — yet most SMEs are still running on residential-grade connections.
Why Centric Comms
Centric Comms delivers business broadband over BT and TalkTalk wholesale networks, with a static IP address included on every product, guaranteed fix times and UK-based support. Every product is PSTN-free — no copper phone line required.
