Converged Business Network Savings Calculator

The Level 3 Converged Business Network Savings Calculator is an interactive tool that enables businesses to see how network convergence could impact their telecommunications needs.

Network convergence allows business to meet multiple communications needs with a single network connection. For example voice and Internet services can be combined eliminating the need for separate services, bills, and connections. By combining services businesses could obtain savings as much as 50% over the cost of having separate services. And this savings does not include the benefits gained by having fewer bills to pay or vendors to manage. Find out more about convergence at www.level3.com/convergence
