Avoid the High Costs of Downtime with Cradlepoint Routers

Posted on Jun 30th 2015

A tree falls in high winds. A snowstorm sweeps into town. A backhoe digs a little too far to the left. Lightning strikes a telephone pole. Floodwaters inundate city streets. All of these acts of nature (or of humans) threaten business continuity. When a business loses its internet connections, it loses revenue — and a whole lot more.

Gartner, an IT research company, estimates that every hour of internet downtime can cost an enterprise organization $30,000. In addition to an immediate hit on revenue from Point-of-Sale system failure, other costs can include:

Non-PCI compliance, which can leave businesses open to security risks and fraud.
Inoperable inventory management systems, which can bring operations to a halt.
Inability to sync cloud-based applications for communications, security and data storage.
The need for IT truck rolls, and dependence on cable company repair schedules.
Damage to brand reputation and loyalty, which can lead to further loss of revenue.

Cradlepoint routers are enterprise-grade internet routers that allow businesses to connect using traditional wired lines while also incorporating failover protection by automatically and seamlessly switching to 4G networks when your wired line cuts out. In addition to valuable failover protection, Cradlepoint routers also offer robust enterprise features that can help better manage your business networks. Your ideal failover and routing solution depends on your unique needs and challenges.
