Your office on the move…mobile data solutions from O2

Who says you can't work on the train, in the park or at your local coffee shop?

Mobile working now gives you more options about the way you choose to run your franchise by greatly increasing your flexibility. When you're running your franchise it's vital that you can make the most of your time. This means that you might need to contact customers, your office or even your accountant while you're on the move. This is where mobile email and broadband can provide the solution.

As you'll be working longer hours, you'll need to make the best use of the times where you're kept waiting or commuting. This is where mobile email and broadband will enable you to stay connected. You will not need to switch on the answer machine!

Being able to work during otherwise wasted moments saves valuable hours to use growing your franchise business or spending precious extra time at home

Data coverage

Coverage is one of the most important areas to consider when you work remotely.

We have extensive coverage at home and abroad for different network services (GPRS/3G/WLAN) so that you can access your company systems when you work away from the office.

Combined with GPRS and WLAN, it provides choice and flexibility depending on the nature of your task, the speed of access required and your location. Our rapidly growing 3G service currently covers 50% of the UK population and we will continue to map the 3G network against where we have high data usage on our GPRS network.
