Comcast rolls out phone service for small business
Comcast Corp., the state's largest cable provider, said it would offer voice services to businesses, adding new competition to the business telecommunications landscape.
Comcast disclosed in January that it had become the fourth-largest residential phone provider in the nation, with its digital voice offering for residential customers. Now, the company is targeting small- and medium-sized businesses. The company will offer a "Triple Play" for businesses, similar to the bundle of phone, high-speed Internet, and television that they offer to residential customers.
"Comcast already delivers reliable voice service to thousands of business owners where they live," Ed Gallagher, vice president and general manager of business services for Comcast's NorthCentral Division in a statement. "These business owners now have the option of choosing Comcast for all of their communication needs where they work."
