Data links at this year's Glastonbury Festival were music to the
ears of organisers, thanks to a Midlands company who supply high
quality data and ADSL lines among other telecoms services.
Solwise Telephony of Hinckley supplies a unique range of high
quality broadband services across the UK, and these were used by
festival organisers and the BBC to link the festival with the
outside world. The company will be providing these services at rock
and pop festivals all over the country this summer.
Solwise Telephony is one of the few companies in the UK able to
provide high quality broadband at short notice and for short
periods across the UK. With speeds up to 20Mb via a standard
telephone line, and the facility to activate this for just a few
days, the organisers of many major events now use Solwise's
services
Solwise Telephony has also spent the last six years developing a
unique telephone system that uses these high quality data lines
instead of standard BT lines. Call quality can be guaranteed,
and the system brings both cash savings and improved productivity
to businesses.
The company will also be providing broadband services and phone
lines at the Reading Festival next month, the T in the Park
festival in Scotland and the Latitude Festival in Suffolk later
this month, the V Festivals at Weston Park, Staffordshire and
Hylands Park, Chelmsford in August, and the Big Chill event at
Eastnor Castle in Herefordshire, also in August.
Solwise managing director Martin Stephenson said the company's
range of products enabled it to provide a value-for-money package
covering everything from the installation of telephone lines
through to quality data links and the new Sipswitch IP telephone
system. The company already supplies some 600 clients including the
BBC, banks, and recruitment agencies. Other recent events the
company has been involved in include last month's Chelsea Flower
Show.
"We provide a unique range of services to businesses across the
UK, and because we are happy to provide very short contract terms,
our customers are not tied in for long periods." he said.
He added, "We provide good support and advice, and because we
are both an Internet Service Provider and have direct access to BT
Wholesale services, we can often put together packages that
precisely fulfil our customer's needs. Add to that our policy
of having just 30 days notice, we know we have to maintain good
standards or our customers could leave!"
Solwise also supplies access to services such as telephone
numbers from any part of the UK, voicemail, call conferencing and
call recording.
