We’ve hit double digits! We’re back with our tenth episode of Channel Corner with James Drake.
This month, we’re discussing one of the biggest topics in the connectivity market:
“How do you see alt-nets shaping the UK’s connectivity landscape?”
At Eclipse Wholesale, we’ve built partnerships with a wide range of UK alt-net providers, giving our partners access to nationwide coverage and a greater choice than ever before.
James shares his thoughts on the topic.
It’s already changing
The impact of alt-nets isn’t something that’s coming, it’s happening now. Over the last few years, we’ve seen a significant increase in alt-net providers investing in their own fibre infrastructure, creating genuine competition alongside the Openreach network. This has transformed the market, providing businesses with more connectivity options and giving channel partners greater flexibility when recommending services.
Value over volume
As the market matures, many alt-nets are moving away from simply expanding their footprint as quickly as possible. Instead, the focus is shifting towards delivering value through network quality, customer experience and sustainable growth. Businesses now have access to providers that differentiate themselves through service and commercials rather than just coverage.
Evolving products and services
As more networks enter the market, we’re seeing providers enhance their product portfolios, improve installation times and develop more commercial model. This evolution benefits both partners and their customers by creating better connectivity solutions that meet a wider range of business needs.
More competition
With more networks available, partners can select the most suitable solution based on location, performance and price rather than just relying on a single infrastructure provider. This allows businesses to receive the best possible connectivity at the best possible price.
At Eclipse Wholesale, we continue to expand out alt-net offering to ensure our partners have access to the widest range of connectivity options across the UK.
