How does the Automatic Backup Connection work? Your company’s Internet service is provided by a wired connection, with unlimited access, depending on the speed selected in your plan. This Internet connection is continually monitored, and interruptions are detected in real time.

Should an issue arise, the LTE network is ready to take over at any time. If a backup is required, the connection automatically switches to the wireless network. No action is required on your part. You can go about your business as usual! Even your static IPs switch over to the Automatic Backup Connection, ensuring the continuity of all your operations.

Our Automatic Backup Connection therefore acts sort of like a generator: it is automatically activated in the event that the primary Internet network goes down. This option allows you to continue your activities uninterrupted, which is sure to make your staff, customers, managers, and shareholders happy. Here are three convincing arguments for adopting this solution, regardless of the size of your business.

1- Reach your sales objectives

The Internet is now at the heart of all organizations’ operations. Real-time inventory, in-store payments, digital file management, and online orders: all businesses, in all sectors, rely on a stable connection to perform. Without this connection, stores cannot use payment terminals, healthcare professionals might temporarily lose access to their patients’ records, and restaurants may be unable to get orders or fulfill deliveries. In short, you need to be able to count on a connection that is available at all times in order to reach your sales objectives.

2- Ensure business continuity in the event of an outage

An Internet outage is frustrating for any business. It can occur at the worst of times and lead to major financial losses, slow your operations, and reduce customer satisfaction. Whether an SME or large business, the consequences of a service interruption are always more expensive than implementing a preventive solution. That’s why it is crucial to have a reliable mechanism, such as an Automatic Backup Connection, in place, to maintain the service your employees and clients expect.

3- Enjoy an affordable, turnkey solution

With a fixed, competitive monthly rate, the Automatic Backup Connection can easily be integrated into your Internet plan. Your connection is therefore continually protected, with no unexpected extra fees or rate tiers. Plus, our experts install and configure the Business-grade equipment, including the Cobra 5G Xtream gateway or even an Aruba 9004 router, for an uninterrupted connection.

A must-have option for stress-free business every day

The key takeaways? Generally speaking, no Internet = no business. It’s as simple as that. The Videotron Business automatic backup takes over the primary connection on the LTE network as soon as an outage occurs. You stay connected, your sales continue, and your teams can work without interruption. And with a no-surprise monthly rate, this peace of mind is more accessible than ever before.
