Why is Your Pricing So Low?
We are aware that our pricing is very low in comparison to other service providers. So much so that people often think we've mis-quoted. We've had corporate clients convinced that we must have missed a zero from the end of the price we've provided.
There are a number of simple reasons for these low prices:
Other Revenue
Most companies providing these services provide
just these services.
The company that runs Streaming Media Services UK is
Atlas Computer Systems. Atlas' main line of business is in software/web development and enterprise hosting
This means that, unlike our competitors, we're not solely
dependent on income from our streaming media services to pay staff salaries, office rental costs, server costs, etc.
We do make a profit from our streaming media services (otherwise we wouldn't do it!) - we just don't have to bump up the prices by as much as our competitors do.
Automation
As we are a web development company, we have been able to develop a number of our own automated systems to do a lot of the work for us.
We don't need to manually check everything every day. Our servers are monitored by computer programs that immediately alert one of our engineers by text message if any human intervention is needed.
Absorbed Costs
Our other business activities
require mission critical, highly reliable and closely monitored servers and networks as well as large amounts of bandwidth. This means that the main costs that our competitors would pass on to you are already paid for by our other activities.
But...
Don't let these low prices fool you into thinking that you'll only be able to deal with us by email or an annoying "Press one for support, two for sales" premium rate telephone system.
Our telephone number is free for you to call and is answered by real people in office hours. For outside of office hours you will be given a direct mobile number for our on-duty support technician.
