Remote Working

Benefits of our business mobile phone packages

8th June 2021

In today’s climate, now more than ever, we are a mobile world. If the last year and a half has taught us anything, it’s that we can work from anywhere, whether that’s in the office, at home, a coworking space, a coffee shop, a hotel, the library or even outdoors!

Businesses worldwide are replacing their traditional methods of communication for products and services that allow them to be more flexible. This is particularly true for businesses with a mobile workforce where employees are constantly on the go and need to communicate efficiently wherever they are.

Mobile phones are a vital piece of business equipment for many business owners and their staff however, there are many businesses that are still relying on employees’ personal mobile plans. These companies are missing out on the benefits that business mobile plans can offer.

With business mobiles, you can choose from a variety of contract lengths and mobile phone options. You can also go SIM only, with the option to source your own handsets. Above all, a business mobile plan is tailored to work for you and your employees’ needs and are brought to you in bespoke, cost effective plans. Here are a few other benefits of a business mobile plan…

Cost-saving

Cost is important to any business, and having your business mobiles all under one roof and one plan is more cost effective than having individual mobile solutions.

Plus, Challenger’s custom-tailored voice and data packages mean you get everything you need and nothing you don’t!

Flexibility

With a business mobile plan you have much better flexibility, allowing you to choose your contract length, data, minutes, texts, and device options that are tailored to meet the needs of your business.

Here at Challenger, we complete regular reviews of your usage to ensure that you are on the right tariff and network. Our dedicated account managers compare tariffs and bolt-ons for your contract to ensure you are getting the most out of your package.

Staying connected

Staying connected within a business is vital – especially right now! Having business mobiles for your employees allows them to stay connected to their colleagues, whether they are in the office, out on the road or working from home.

With more and more businesses making a permanent switch to remote working, upgrading to business mobile phones shows an obvious advantage. Employees can simply and easily keep in touch with their colleagues, customers and prospects anywhere using their mobile. You can also ensure that they are able to answer inbound calls while they are working from home with a VoIP app bolt-on.

Combined billing

You have enough on your plate running a business, you don’t need to be dealing with any more paperwork or bills than you already have! With business mobile packages you can combine your mobile contract into one simple and straightforward monthly bill.

Quality handsets and devices

Like all mobile contracts, of course you have the option to choose your own devices however there are so many handsets on the market, it can be quite overwhelming when trying to find the best options for your employees’ needs.

Here at Challenger we have the latest high-end iPhones and Samsungs, as well as smaller, lower cost phones for your business. We also offer a range of iPads and tablets with data-only SIMs and rugged phones for those who need tough, unbreakable handsets. Most importantly we have people with years of expertise who will get to know your business and recommend the relevant hardware best suited to your line of work.

Employee benefit

Having your staff use their own mobile devices for work can cause disruption to their personal life if they receive calls outside their working hours. Giving your employees their own business mobile stops their work-life balance from being compromised.

Giving your employees their own business mobile can also be seen as a perk, since it gives your employees the option to work wherever they like!

Business continuity

Keep your business consistent by keeping all your business mobile packages all under one, simple to manage account. This keeps things nice and simple!

Hotspotting

When employees are remote in an area where they are without internet access to their laptop or tablet, they can connect to the internet using their mobile phone hotspot!

Support

Here at Challenger, you will be given a dedicated account manager that will support you and your employees for all your communications needs and present all options available to you. They are business communications experts who can offer advice and regular reviews that ensure you are happy and getting the most out of your services.

We also have dedicated Customer Support and Data Support teams who are here to help you with any issues or queries, no matter how big or small.

Add-ons

VoIP connectivity

With mobility in the forefront of many businesses minds, it is important to consider how your telephone system works with your remote workers. Being able to keep in touch with customers and prospects is vital, no matter where your team are working. With business mobiles, you can seamlessly integrate your VoIP telephone system with a VoIP mobile app.

Lone worker protection

Challenger’s mobile application can be installed on your lone workers’ Android devices, offering safety features such as Routine Welfare Checks (RWC) and SOS Panic Alerts.

Plus, our smart phone app can be operated without the need for an additional or dedicated device.

Phone Care

The loss or damage of mobile phones and tablets is a problem, but it doesn’t have to be a disaster. For a small monthly fee, we can cover theft, loss, or accidental damage.
