Multi Sited Businesses: HM Network and BT Business

At HM Network we often speak to organisations with multiple sites across the UK including customers in education, retail, recruitment, insurance, financial services, and construction. We appreciate that it can be frustrating dealing with different departments especially in different areas when it comes to getting quotes, checking availability, ordering, estate management or getting support which is why we pride ourselves on providing a one stop shop.  We work for our customers to make sure they get the best options available to them.

As a partner of BT for over a decade we have worked with hundreds of customers right across the UK and beyond for broadband, voice, BTnet dedicated internet, MPLS and Ethernet WAN.  With the addition of SD WAN and Intelligent sites, we offer a strong portfolio of connectivity that helps support businesses who absolutely rely on their connectivity.
