Business in Reading

Reading is the commercial centre of the Thames Valley and the technology corridor that runs through it. Green Park and the business parks along the A33 hold corporate and technology occupiers at a scale nowhere else in Berkshire matches, the station puts London under half an hour away, and the town centre carries a retail and hospitality economy serving all of it. Most of the businesses here are desk-based, Microsoft-centric and part of something larger, so the question is rarely what to install but what the group already mandates.

Sectors we work with around Reading

Reading — common questions

Our Reading office is one of several UK sites. Can you do just this one?

Yes, and it is a normal request in the Thames Valley. A single site can be supplied inside whatever standard the group has already set, with the circuit and the telephony matched to what the other offices run. Where the group later wants everything consolidated, the same account scales to it — but nobody has to boil the ocean to fix one office.

Everyone at our Reading office already lives in Teams. Do we need handsets at all?

Usually not. Teams calling turns the application people already have open into the phone system, with real numbers and proper call routing, so there is nothing new to learn and no hardware to maintain. Handsets are worth keeping for reception, for a meeting room, and for anyone who genuinely needs a phone that works when a laptop does not.

Often asked for around Reading

Based on the sectors that make up the local economy — not everything we do, just what tends to come up here.

The 2027 switch-off affects Reading too. Openreach plans to retire its traditional phone network by 31 January 2027. Check your phone lines, alarms and payment terminals, and plan the move with your provider.
