🚨 Big Changes Are Coming: Is Your Business Ready for the 2025 Switch? 🚨 By December 2025, the UK is retiring traditional PSTN phone lines, ISDN & ADSL broadband. If your business still depends on these services, the time to act is now. Here’s why this shift matters: 📞 Phones: Landlines will stop working. VoIP is the future, but it requires a stable internet connection. 🌐 Internet: With ADSL being phased out, businesses in areas without fibre coverage could face serious connectivity issues. ⚠️ Systems: Essential tools like alarms, payment terminals, and monitoring systems may need upgrading to stay operational. For SMEs, this transition could mean upfront costs and potential disruption if delayed. But there’s a silver lining: Adopting modern technologies like fibre broadband and VoIP can unlock faster speeds, greater reliability, and even long-term savings. 🔧 What can you do? Start planning now to avoid surprises and ensure your business stays competitive in a rapidly evolving digital world. #BusinessGrowth #DigitalTransformation #VoIP #FibreBroadband #SMEs

How embracing outsourcing can solve recruitment challenges and boost #MSPGrowth Reflecting on last week’s #UptimeLIVE, Michael Freeman of Southern IT Networks Ltd shared how their partnership with Uptime has transformed their business. Faced with recruitment challenges, Michael turned to Uptime for dedicated technicians, fully integrating them as part of his team. 🛠️ The key takeaway? Outsourcing doesn’t mean losing control—it’s about building a seamless extension of your in-house team. For MSPs struggling to find talent, taking that first step into outsourcing could be the game-changer your business needs. 💡 “Nothing happens inside the comfort zone,” as Michael wisely said. #UptimeLIVE2024 #MSPCommunity #Outsourcing #BusinessGrowth #SouthernIT #TechTalent #TubbTalk #ManagedServices

FINALLY! The boxxe acquisition of Total Computers has officially completed. I got all sentimental about my 7 years as a Total employee and dug into the video archives I now work for one of the UK's top Value Added IT resellers & Managed Service Providers. For those who don't understand IT talk, this basically means that I have become the Bill Gates of Bury. Watch the full video from 2019 on the link in the comments 👇 #IT #computing #harrisonk

It's incredibly important that businesses are prepared for the PSTN/ISDN shutdown. The shutdown of the old PSTN/ISDN network can affect more areas of a business than we're often aware of. Its not just phones but often essential areas of the business associated with security and safety such as lifts, fire alarms, communication systems etc. If a connection runs via copper, it needs changing now.
