Goodbye internet dropouts

Keep your business online and productive with reliable, flexible internet options and a provider you can actually speak to. 

Constant internet dropouts, hours of frustration on hold and no hope of a resolution meant Business on Purpose needed an internet provider they could rely on.

Ian Edwards delivers business and executive coaching to people across Australia through his business Business on Purpose. Daily video-calls, shared online files and remote working mean reliable internet is crucial not only to his business, but to Inspire Ability a speech and occupational therapy centre that shares the premises.

The internet dropped out, all the time. We reported the problem to our provider ten times, but they just didn’t do anything about it.

‘Most of those times, we’d wait between 45 minutes and an hour and a half before they answered the call. It was driving us insane.’

Not only did we have poor internet, the process of getting help was terrible

Two businesses and 12 staff members share the Warners Bay premises, with everyone running off the one internet connection. All online appointments with clients had to stop and admin staff resorted to using data on their personal phones because the internet would suddenly come to a grinding halt. It was unsustainable and frustrating for everyone.

Desperation meant we considered installing a satellite dish

I’d go into work and I’d never know if I’d be able to do what I needed to do because the internet was so unreliable. The disruption and wasted time had a tremendous impact on productivity.

When Ian discovered Gravity IT was an NBN service provider, he grabbed the opportunity to deal directly with them, knowing that the Gravity team would follow up the issue until it was resolved.

Gravity had an NBN specialist on-site in 3 days

After diagnosing the problem, three faults were fixed: one in the house and two in the street.

They didn’t stop until the service was reliable, because Gravity was chasing them up to make sure everything was working as it should. The guy from NBN was really good, he even left me his private number and asked me to call him if there were issues the next day.’

Three months later, business is running smoothly for both Inspire Ability and Business on Purpose. And Ian couldn’t be happier.

We’ve had zero dropouts

There’s been no hassles at all since the repair work was done. It’s like chalk and cheese.  I never go to work now wondering if the internet is working, it’s just a given that it will be.
