Why this matters
Communications downtime usually involves more than the phone system. Internet providers, switches, routers, cabling, endpoints, power, carriers, and support ownership can all affect availability.
Business technology answer
How can a business reduce communications downtime?
A business can reduce communications downtime by documenting voice and network dependencies, modernizing aging systems, planning internet failover, improving cabling and Wi-Fi reliability, and defining one support escalation path.
Short answer
What to consider for your business.
