Technology seems to continually advance in contemporary business. While this is great, business practices need to keep up with that virtual acceleration. Getting accurate data about your business’s efficiency is key, and a telecom audit help with that.
Here are five reasons why continuous telecom audits are more beneficial than simply conducting annual ones.
Maintaining Visibility: Small and medium-sized businesses need to gain as much visibility as possible. Periodic audits provide periodic visibility. When the audit is over, however, and companies shift locations or grow in size, that previous visibility no longer applies. Conducting a continuous telecom audit can fill those gaps.
Minimal Disruptions: Conventional audits that take place quarterly or annually can be a real inconvenience. They are invasive and often very time-consuming. Performing frequent or continuous audits severely minimizes this inconvenience so employees can maximize their productivity while you still get the information you need.
Maximum Flexibility: If your telecom audit is continuous, it allows for adaptation. Your business can be more flexible and audits can coincide with other projects. You can also customize and breakdown your reports more easily than traditional audits.
Getting it Right: Performing a single, periodic audit doesn’t guarantee that your results are accurate. A continuous telecom audit will give you results and information spread out over time. This is a much more accurate depiction of your company’s efficiency.
Improved security: Cyber-attacks, information theft, hacking. None of those words lead to anything good for your business. Continuous audits can catch these threats in the early stages! You can consistently see what devices are connected to your network, reducing the risk of unwelcomed threats.

Closed-circuit television is one of the most effective forms of video surveillance. It is a highly-advanced technology that allows businesses to continually monitor their facilities. Here are four reasons CCTV has proven to be the leader in video surveillance.
Stop Crime Before It Happens
Like most security systems, a lot of the job is done just by installing it. CCTV uses a group of circuited modern security cameras. The placement of those cameras alone is often enough to deter criminals before they commit a crime. Your security cameras will capture a recording if something does occur, but usually surveillance cameras are a natural deterrent.
Catch Crime If It Happens
Hopefully having a CCTV system in place is enough to deter potential criminals from trying anything, but on the off-chance something happens your video surveillance will certainly catch it on film. Having a physical recording when filing a police report gives you an exponentially better chance that the authorities can find the person(s) responsible. You have the event recorded and potentially can even ID a suspect from the recording.
100% Coverage
CCTV is as close to fool-proof surveillance that money can buy. It is virtually impenetrable and immune to human error. It records everything that happens, and you can set up as many cameras as you feel is necessary to cover the entire area. Between the constant, uninterrupted surveillance and its self-sufficiency, even your employees will be kept honest by your CCTV system.
Complete Self-Maintenance
You can leave your CCTV system running 24/7/365 without the burden of having someone physically on-site to manage it. There is no need for a guard to sit at your business through the night or to pay personnel to come in on holidays. With CCTV recording everything at your business, you can rest easy knowing that nothing will happen that you don’t know about.
Protecting your home or business is important. At WesTec, we have a staff of trained professionals ready to assist you and answer any questions you may have. Contact our experts today to inquire about setting up CCTV surveillance at your company.

Thirty-seven percent of workers telecommute regularly while more than half of business emails are now opened via smartphone.
In today’s workforce, mobile usage, employee mobility and remote workers are common. Therefore, it is important that businesses adopt mobile technology to meet the teetering needs and demands of the market. Accessibility – With the use of mobile technology within a business, the full power of a business phone system is readily available to the mobile user. Whether sitting in a physical office or working from a home office, the worker has the ability to be reached by a customer or coworker if needed. Accountability – Although mobile technology has posed issues for businesses in the past, improvements have been made. By running a business phone application on the mobile device and enforcing a business usage protocol, call records become available to the business manager for accountability purposes. Transitions – If a worker needs to leave the office at a certain time and is currently on a call with a customer, mobile technology allows a seamless transition. With mobile technology, a worker can press a button on the office phone to transfer the call to mobile without the customer even noticing.
Mobile technology has transformed the business world with its ability to interact seamlessly with customers and employees in a full-featured and professional manner.

Every business relies on communication to succeed. Because communication methods are only enhancing and changing, businesses are constantly seeking ways to cut telecommunications costs. In fact, it is estimated that telecommunications services are the third largest operating expense for most companies.
If you’re searching for ways to cut costs within your business, telecommunication audits are an easy, accurate way to discover what business practices are working and which ones are not. Telecom audits could potentially save your company thousands of dollars each year. Here a few benefits of implementing telecom audits: • Increase efficiency. Telecom auditing systems can provide advanced and customized reporting of current phone system services. Utilizing this innovative tactic, any problems with the telecom infrastructure can be brought to the surface–allowing productive time for immediate equipment fix or elimination. • Save time. The use of telecom auditing systems can provide highly itemized and detailed reports for any department. Having quick access to accurate data of system conditions and employee performances saves wasted time for determining what changes need to be made–also, company down time can be prevented if equipment needs to be upgraded.
• Find savings. Telecom audits can identify areas of wireless overspend throughout the entire company. If a company is dishing out extra expenses for mishandling of communication equipment, audits can identify billing errors or other unauthorized charges. By acquiring more data, necessary changes can be made to cut expenses.

Outsourcing IT consulting services can help increase significant efficiency in a business–ultimately translating into reduced business costs. Learn how hiring a professional IT consulting service can aid a business of any size: • Reduced spending. When IT professionals come into a business, they are not there to make sales. Instead, these experts are there to evaluate the way a business is run and provide consulting and solutions for improvements. IT consulting services are a smart alternative to hiring an in-house team and repairing costly systems malfunctions later. • Increase focus on core business. Outsourcing IT professionals for IT consulting services allows business management to focus on core competencies and business development, rather than putting attention on technology issues. IT companies offer enhanced consulting and support that go beyond what internal operations could provide–saving wasted time on operational issues. • Access to experts and latest technology. IT companies ensure their employees are trained and certified in the technologies they support, so businesses can be confident the right technology decisions are being made–ultimately reducing all-around risk. Receiving thorough IT consulting services offers access to the latest technology and support from a team that are true experts in the area.
