Broadband for business customers

Broadband is increasingly critical to the success of businesses and BT Business Broadband remained the leading internet service provider for SMEs in the UK.
     In 2008, broadband revenues in the business segment grew by 22% and at 31 March 2008, 60% of new business broadband customers had contracts for a minimum of two years. Because businesses need more than basic broadband access, over 98% of our broadband sales are now made with value-added services attached.
     In the business mobility market, our strategy is to integrate traditional fixed, mobile and IP services to offer a single communications solution to our customers. We also provide a range of managed mobile services to UK and global customers who either outsource their mobile communications entirely or rely on BT to provide specific managed services.
     Our portfolio of products and services specifically for SMEs includes:

		BT Business Total Broadband, a comprehensive broadband package with download speeds of up to 8Mb;
		BT Business One Plan, the UK’s first triple-play landline, mobile and broadband calling package designed for businesses. At 31 March 2008, BT Business One Plan had 168,000 locations, and accounted for 16% of call revenues from business customers;
		BT Broadband Voice, a free additional line offer;
		BT Communications Complete, launched in January 2008, a simple, networked IP platform offering everything our business customers need to improve their communications;
		BT Corporate Fusion, a combination of hardware, software and networking technology to integrate mobile communications onto corporate networks;
		BT Fusion, a versatile tariff that includes unlimited calls to UK mobiles and UK landlines made from the office (within range of the BT Business hub) or from a BT Openzone hotspot;
		BT Office Anywhere, a hand-held device that gives users on the move the functions of an office Windows PC. Unlike other smartphones, it comes with VoIP and the option of unlimited VoIP calls to UK landlines; and
		Blackberry® Internet Service, which offers talk, email and internet access on the move using a Blackberry® handset.
