Telecoms for Colchester businesses
Modern VoIP phone systems, business broadband and leased lines that keep your team connected and your costs down.
Telecoms and connectivity for Colchester — competitive fibre and hosted voice
Colchester telecoms is a mostly healthy market — CO1 through CO4 have competitive FTTP and leased-line pricing across multiple carriers, and the outer postcodes thin out but rarely become a problem. We procure connectivity on merit rather than favouring a single supplier, and for clients where a trading-day outage would cost real money we design dual-carrier circuits with automatic failover.
The 2027 PSTN switch-off is driving steady voice-migration work. Garrison supply-chain and professional services firms tend to migrate onto full hosted-voice platforms with call recording and queuing; University-adjacent and Microsoft 365-centric clients usually prefer Teams Phone because the collaboration stack is already there. We handle number porting end-to-end, scheduled outside business hours so customers never notice the cut-over.

Telecoms & VoIP Colchester FAQ
Do I need to switch from my old phone line?
Yes — Openreach is switching off the old PSTN and ISDN network in December 2025. Every business needs to be on a digital (VoIP) system before then. We can handle the whole migration for you.
Will my existing phone numbers work?
Yes. We port your existing numbers across so customers and contacts don't notice any change. Number porting typically takes 7–14 working days.
What broadband speeds can I get?
It depends on your address. We check available services for your specific postcode and recommend the best option — usually full fibre (FTTP) where available, with leased lines for businesses needing guaranteed speeds.
