If your Internet connection selection was based on price, it may be costing you money.
A typical DSL or Cable connection might have be 3Mbps or more for downloads, but only 500kbps -768kbps for uploads. If you have remote users such as sales or technical staff or perhaps a remote bookkeeper, these users are spending additional time waiting for data to be uploaded from your office. The problem is compounded if someone at the office is sending a large or a computer is backing up files to an off site data backup provider. This additional time spent waiting for data could easily translate into hours of wasted time every month.
Having an Internet connection with symmertrical speeds ensures there is enough bandwidth for both local office workers as well as remote users.
