If you have recently relocated to a new office or are just looking to upgrade your current workspace, it may benefit you to find out how to get connected. By doing so, you can ensure you are prepared ahead of your upcoming move-in date and avoid falling victim to a number of common connection pitfalls. Continue reading to find out everything you need to know.
Internet
When it comes to moving into a new office, a valid internet provider should be organised a number of weeks, or even months, in advance. This is because it can take a considerable amount of time to activate. If you are browsing several different office spaces, for example, you must find out which internet provider services the building as well as how fast the connection is likely to be. In addition, you should also find out whether or not you can get a better deal from an alternative vendor by continuing your search elsewhere before you make an informed decision.
Phone line
As well as organising internet, you must also install a phone line, as well as any required extensions, ahead of time. There are a number of options to choose from including a traditional phone line with copper wiring, a VoIP phone service, or a virtual phone service that forwards calls made to the business to a personal phone line located elsewhere. In today’s technology-driven landscape, a VoIP is the most popular choice for a growing number of industries and sectors due to its unrivalled affordability and flexibility. It is also relatively affordable and, therefore, a great option for small or up and coming businesses looking to avoid the rising cost of installing a traditional landline system.
In recent years, the workplace has experienced a number of technological advancements. But despite these changes, email continues to reign supreme when it comes to connecting with employees, customers, and clients on an internal as well as external basis. If you are looking to set up an email account or transfer your existing email account to a new office, you must ensure you do so a number of weeks in advance. To do so, individual and business email accounts should be set up with the appropriate signatures for each employee including their name, job title, business name, relevant contact details, and logo if necessary. This can allow you to continue communicating on a daily basis and prevent you from being left out of the loop.
