Kcom Retail.net

Reliable and guaranteed. Four specially created solutions to help your business perform.

If you need a way to connect branches together around the country in a cost-effective way, without sacrificing speed and reliability in the process, you need to consider your network's performance now and in the future.

How can Kcom help?

Kcom’s Retail.net solutions are ideal for retail businesses with multiple sites within the UK. Connectivity between your headquarters and branches can be costly and time-consuming to manage. You can get tied up dealing with technical issues rather than having the time and freedom to concentrate on your business objectives:

  • Delivering real time reporting of key data to HQ from branches - ensuring information is accesible in all branches across the country at the same time 
  • Ensuring compliance - so you know your critical communications are performing as they should 
  • Smooth transferring of data - keeping data feeding smoothly between all systems from stock to HR
  • Maintaining customer experience - guaranteed networks to deliver peace of mind
  • Efficient inter branch communications - keeping information moving and costs under control

Kcom has taken steps to make things much easier for you. We have put together a range of four solutions that will provide efficient, scalable and reliable branch connectivity. Working with you to understand your business objectives we can recommend which solution would best meet your specific requirements.

The Solutions

Retail Lite

Utilising a 100Mb Ethernet bearer from your headquarters address into our Kcom Broadband platform, branches are then subsequently connected using DSL, providing up to 24Mbps speeds.

This solution can also be delivered with 2 DSL circuits into each branch providing failover for resilience. This forms Retail Lite +.

Both Retail Lite solutions are completely private networks

Retail Premium

Utilising a 100Mb Ethernet bearer from your headquarters address into our UK wide MPLS core network, branches are then subsequently connected using MPLS enabled DSL connectivity with up to 24Mbps speeds.

For the ultimate in resilience a completely separate Private DSL network can be used as a backup network to the MPLS network. This forms Retail Premium +.  

All Retail.net solutions are delivered as a fully managed service including:

  • Consultancy
  • Installation
  • 24/7 proactive monitoring
  • Performance reporting
  • Service desk support
