Depending on where you live, you may have been bombarded by new advertising from Everything Everywhere, trumpeting the release of their new 4G mobile phone network. If you haven’t yet heard anything from EE, it is probably because you live or work outside one of the 16 cities in which 4G has now gone live. However, just because 4G may not be available in your area yet, it will still be of interest to you as more services come on line over the next 12 months.

Why? 4G is the latest generation of mobile phone network and is set to revolutionise mobile internet access in the same way that its predecessor 3G did. Offering download speeds of up to 100Mbits per second, 4G networks have the bandwidth required to make mobile working more of a genuine proposition. Such speeds will mean no more video buffering problems and much more consistent access to Cloud services.

Although remote access to Cloud services is possible over existing 3G mobile networks, the experience is often frustrating, particularly in areas where the signal coverage is poor. 4G networks offer enhanced coverage and greater data speeds even where signal is slightly weaker.

If your business is seriously considering Cloud services for your mobile workforce, 4G could provide the connectivity you require to get the very best from your investment.
