Guaranteed service
When you rely on your Internet connection to do business, you need more than just verbal reassurance. On certain products Blue Saffron offers industry-leading, 99.9% service level agreement ( SLA ) and 24x7 customer care, means that you can depend on BlueSaffron Broadband™ to enable your business day and night. Our Service Level options can support your business needs be they Standard Working Hours or 24/7.
Today many businesses are looking to assure their Internet connections. Blue Saffron can help in many ways; for example providing ADSL backup to your Leased Line connection or ISDN backup for your ADSL connection. The simple fact is that with so many Business Critical applications relying on the Internet, it makes sense to have more than one connection into the Internet. Costs are not prohibitive and will more than pay for themselves should they ever be called into use.
Secure networking
Today the Public Internet can be used a platform for private connectivity and technological advances in performance and security now make it a viable alternative to Dedicated Private Networks which can be very expensive and slow to deploy.
BlueSaffron can support most types of Private Networking over the Public Internet, the most popular being a basic Managed Broadband service where we can supply and manage the various internet connections within your enterprise ranging to more advance MPLS, IPSec and SSL Virtual Private Networks
The basic network building blocks are the broadband technoligies described in table 1.0 above.
