Link's Business Continuity Program
What is it?
Put simply it is:
​
Our plan to ensure that you are always able to connect with anyone calling you and with anyone you are calling. No matter what.
Why is it important?
Whether your business or enterprise uses a legacy type of non-VoIP phone system or you have fully embraced the latest in VoIP business communications technology, there are always going to be glitches that can negatively effect your connection with the outside world.
​
Common glitches and our Business Continuity Solutions:
​
Area wide or building power or Internet failures where all of your on-site phones and your data network are shut down.
First, all your menu’s, voice mail, etc will still work no matter what's going on.
Second, every user has our available Wave app and can continue to place and answer all calls just as if their desk phones were still working.
Third, if users choose not to use our Wave app, we can have rules in place to automatically route calls elsewhere.
​
In a distributed phone system where your headquarters may host your primary server and that building is down. This affects and shuts down all remote locations and users.
First, since your system is not hosted at one location, this scenario does not affect any remote locations or users.
Second, since all the safeguards shown in our first example are also in place, even the headquarters building will still have communication options.
In a Cloud based system where the “Cloud” is actually hosted in one or possibly two locations, you can experience a failure of the hosting service. This will basically have the effect of shutting down your phones even though everything appears OK in your building.
Our Cloud servers are distributed worldwide with uptime of greater than 99.998%
​
Whenever ANY telephone call is placed, the call passes through many networks and that individual call is handled by various carriers and Internet providers. Equipment under the street can fail, wires and cables can be cut or damaged, transmission networks can be overextended. These conditions can all effect your calls.
We stand ready to react quickly to any conditions and provide you with all the assistance you need to stay connected.
