Better Business Mobile Solutions

In 2025, your business mobile setup is no longer just about finding the cheapest option. It’s about: Getting reliable coverage where your team actually works. Ensuring you’re on the right tariff and network mix without overpaying for “unlimited everything.” Structuring payments in a way that’s friendly to your cash flow and taxes. Keeping every device secure and managed with proper Mobile Device Management (MDM). Having a support partner who genuinely cares when something goes wrong. That’s where Volcron Technologies comes in. We’re a specialized UK business telecom provider, not a large call center. Our focus is straightforward: help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) get better value, better coverage, and smarter payment options for their mobile fleet, along with support that doesn’t vanish after you sign the contract. 1. Are You Really on the Best Business Mobile Deal? Most businesses fall into one of three traps: Overpaying for unused data and minutes. Facing extra charges because their plan doesn’t match real-world usage. Being locked into a single network when different teams require different coverage. At Volcron Technologies, we begin by examining how your business uses mobile phones: How many calls do you make? Are they UK only or international? Are your staff in offices, vehicles, warehouses, outdoors, or construction sites? Do you need hotspot access for laptops and tablets? Do teams travel abroad often? From there, we design tailored tariffs instead of a one-size-fits-all approach: SIM-only plans for teams with their own devices. Bundles of handsets and airtime for new hires or complete upgrades. Shared or pooled data for teams that use data differently each month. Add-ons for EU roaming, international calls, static IPs, MiFi, and routers. You should not have to adjust your business to fit your tariff; the tariff should adapt to your business. 2. Best Coverage: It’s About the Right Mix, Not Just One Network Asking, “Who’s the best network?” misses the point. The right question is: “Which network works best in your locations?” Coverage can vary greatly between: City centers versus business parks. Industrial estates versus rural sites. Ground floor offices versus warehouses versus vehicles on the road. One network may be ideal for your head office but ineffective at a specific site or delivery route. Volcron’s method: We partner with multiple UK networks, not just one. We analyze coverage maps, local performance, and staff feedback. We can mix networks across your SIMs—some on EE, some on Vodafone, some on O2—all under one relationship with a single support partner. This means: Your field engineers can be on the network that works best for their area. Your office staff can use a different network that is optimized for their location. You’re not stuck if one network has a local issue—you have choices. Result: Better uptime, fewer dropped calls, and staff can connect when it matters. 3. Smart, Tax-Efficient Ways to Pay Monthly Business mobiles are not just a tech choice; they’re also a financial and tax decision. There are three common ways to organize your mobile expenses: Option A: Buy Handsets Outright + SIM-Only You pay for the handset upfront. Then pay a lower monthly SIM-only rate. Pros: Often the cheapest option over the device’s useful life. You own the device outright, so it becomes an asset. Easy to understand and manage. Tax perspective (general principles, not individual advice): Handsets are usually regarded as capital assets, so you might be able to claim capital allowances over time. SIM costs are typically seen as allowable business expenses. Good if you have strong cash flow and want to reduce total costs. Option B: Finance Over 12–36 Months Spread the handset cost over fixed monthly payments. Pair this with a flexible SIM plan. Pros: Protects cash flow—no large upfront expense. Makes it easier to match device costs to their useful life. Provides predictable monthly budgeting. In many cases, finance payments are seen as allowable business expenses, aiding cash flow and tax position. Option C: Lease Handsets (Often the Most Tax-Efficient) You lease the device rather than purchasing it. At the end of the lease, you can upgrade, extend, or return the device based on the agreement. Pros: Usually fully deductible as an operating expense (check with your accountant). Keeps technology fresh and up to date—you can upgrade at the end of the lease. Protects cash and helps prevent technology from becoming outdated on your balance sheet. Leasing is often a very tax-efficient way to run a mobile fleet because: Payments are typically treated as ongoing operating costs. You avoid tying up capital in depreciating assets. Important: Tax treatment depends on your situation and the specific agreement. Volcron will present your options, but always verify with your accountant which path is best for your business. 4. Why MDM (Mobile Device Management) is No Longer Optional Distributing smartphones without MDM is like giving out company laptops without passwords, antivirus, or backup. It might work for a while, until it doesn’t. What Is MDM? MDM (Mobile Device Management) is software that allows you to: Enroll devices centrally—whether company-owned or bring your own device (BYOD). Enforce PIN/password and encryption policies. Push or remove apps and email accounts remotely. Separate work data from personal data. Lock, locate, or wipe a lost or stolen device. Why Your Business Needs MDM Data Security & Compliance Protect emails, documents, and CRM access if a phone is lost or stolen. Reduce the risk of a data breach involving customer or company information. Control & Productivity Restrict access to certain apps or content during work hours. Ensure staff always have the correct version of business apps. Ease of Management Onboard new staff quickly: push email, apps, and settings in minutes. Offboard departing employees securely: remove access without needing the device physically. Support & Troubleshooting Check device status remotely. Push fixes or updates without sending someone on-site. At Volcron Technologies, we can bundle MDM with your business mobile plan, so you won’t have to search for, buy, and configure it on your own. We’ll help: Choose the right MDM platform for your size and requirements. Set up policies, profiles, and security settings. Create simple processes for onboarding and offboarding employees. 5. Why Work with a Smaller Specialist Like Volcron, Not a Giant Call Center? Big networks and comparison sites may sell you mobiles. Volcron Technologies will design and support a solution. Here’s what that means practically: 1. We Prioritize Your Interests, Not Just One Network’s Because we’re not tied to a single network: We recommend what’s right for your usage and locations. We mix and match networks, tariffs, and device types. We regularly review your usage and suggest changes if you’re spending too much or too little. 2.

Assistance when you need to add new staff, suspend a SIM, or upgrade a device. Advice in straightforward language, not telecom jargon. We see ourselves as your long-term connectivity partner, not merely a sales channel. 3. Flexible, Practical Contracts We understand SMEs: Seasonal teams? We’ll explore flexible contracts and scaling options. Rapid growth? We’ll create a setup that can expand quickly without causing chaos. Concerned about cash flow? We’ll look at leasing and finance options that protect your cash flow and support growth. 4. Integrated Solutions Since we also handle tablets, rugged devices, routers, and IoT SIMs, we can: Combine your entire mobile, field, and connectivity needs under one roof.
