Introduction

Connectivity you can rely on when it matters most

Have a chat with us
For some businesses, internet connectivity is important.

For others, it's critical.

If your organisation relies on cloud applications, large file transfers, video conferencing, hosted communications or real-time access to business systems, a leased line provides the speed, reliability and performance needed to keep everything running smoothly.
Benefits

When connectivity is critical, your business needs more than a standard broadband connection.

Talk to us

Your internet connection is used exclusively by your business, helping deliver more consistent performance throughout the working day.

Upload and download speeds are the same, making it easier to support cloud services, video meetings, backups and collaboration tools.

Because the connection isn't shared with other organisations, you're less likely to experience the slowdowns often associated with standard broadband services.

Leased lines typically provide lower latency, helping deliver faster response times and a smoother experience for business-critical applications.

Choose a connection speed that reflects your current requirements, with the flexibility to adapt as your business grows.

Support Microsoft 365, hosted telephony, video conferencing, cloud infrastructure and other critical applications with confidence.

Leased Lines

Think of a leased line as a private road between your business and the internet.

Get a quote
Unlike standard broadband, which is shared with other users, a leased line is dedicated entirely to your organisation. That means the bandwidth you choose is yours to use, helping deliver more predictable speeds and performance.

Leased lines also provide symmetrical speeds, meaning uploads are just as fast as downloads. This is particularly valuable for businesses using cloud services, video collaboration tools, hosted communications and regular file transfers.

The result is a more stable, reliable and responsive connection that supports the way modern businesses work.
Connectivity

What this means in real life

Your team can host meetings, collaborate remotely and communicate with customers without constantly worrying about connectivity issues.

Business-critical tools and services remain available when your employees need them most.

Employees spend less time waiting for files to upload, systems to respond or applications to load.

As your business evolves, a leased line provides the foundation needed to support additional users, locations and technologies.

GREAT EXPERIENCE

We asked First Comm to devleop our shared working platform, get required licenses and set up a medium size team on email etc. for a new programme mobilising across Bradford. It's been a great experience and having their technical expert, Charlie C on hand and communicating in good time made sure everything flowed and we launched in good time. Further enquiries have been dealt with promptly. Kerry

Outstanding Customer Service!

I represent Lovatts Roofing in Bury. After a power cut caused some technical complications, I rang Firstcom and an engineer was thankfully sent out the same day. Callam was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He diagnosed our issues and increased our internet speeds by approx 6x If I had my own business I would choose Firstcom for sure. Just genuine real people with solutions.

Quick to Help.

Whenever you ring you always get someone who is willing to help you to sort your issue out, unlike some companies that just want to pass you from department to department, very happy with the service we get and would highly recommend. Technical help is great and they call you back when the say they will, which is all done in a timely manner. (Thanks Ashley for your help )

Excellence throughout

All the engineers, from the cable gentlemen who worked in very hot temperatures, to the installation engineers, they were all fantastic covering 3 floors of our building. All were clean and fast workers. They worked around our business needs so nothing/no one was affected. Our One to One contact Beth kept in touch throughout to make sure everything was going smoothly!
