Hurricane Preparedness Checklist

Hurricane season is here — and a little preparation now can keep your business running if a storm hits.

Your Phone System Travels With You

If you’re on our Hosted PBX (HPBX) cloud phone service, your business number stays active even if your office loses power or internet. You can:

• Make and take business calls from your cell phone or computer with the Mobile Softphone app
• Take your desk phone with you — plug it into any internet connection and it works exactly like it does at the office
• Forward calls to alternate numbers if your location is inaccessible.

If you haven’t installed and tested the  Mobile Softphone app yet, do it before severe weather arrives — not during.

Stay Online When Your Internet Goes Down

Losing your primary internet connection is the most common storm-related outage. Backup cellular internet fixes that:

Benefits include:

• Automatic failover the moment your primary connection drops
• Your HPBX phones and business-critical apps stay up
• Faster recovery after the storm passes

Before the Storm: A Quick Checklist

• Verify your HPBX call forwarding and routing settings
• Make sure key employees have the  Mobile Softphone app installed and logged in
• Ensure key employees take a desk phone and a power adapter with cords
• Test your backup cellular internet connection
• Update your emergency contacts with our support team
