Staying Connected Through the Storm

How Verge Keeps Your Business Online During Hurricane Season

As we move deeper into hurricane season, a weather disturbance brewing in the Gulf is a timely reminder: your communication systems need to be as resilient as your business.

Whether it's a hurricane threatening Texas and Louisiana or a tornado sweeping through Oklahoma or Kansas, natural disasters can severely disrupt power, internet, and phone systems—leaving your team and customers in the dark. At Verge Network Solutions, we’ve built our platform to keep your business connected, no matter the storm.

What Happens When Communications Go Down?

Severe weather events like hurricanes bring a range of challenges:

• Power outages and ISP failures can knock out VoIP systems, cloud apps, and customer portals
• Staff may be unable to report to work, leaving your business scrambling to reroute calls or provide updates
• Customers are left without answers when phone lines and email systems go down
• Internal confusion grows, especially when leadership can’t communicate real-time updates or reassign responsibilities

In short, when communication breaks down, operations follow.

Geo‑Redundant Continuity Built In

Unlike providers that operate from a single data center or regional office, Verge Network Solutions maintains dual office locations:

📍 Houston, TX
📍 Oklahoma City, OK

These two hubs work in tandem to provide georedundant service failover. That means if one region is impacted by a weather event, we're automatically prepared to support your services from our other location—keeping your phones ringing, your platforms accessible, and your customers connected.

Proactive Communication Is Key

In times of uncertainty, your employees and customers need fast, accurate updates. Verge’s communications tools include:

• Mass notification and alert messaging across SMS, email, and voice
• Customizable routing rules to adjust how calls are handled in an emergency
• Real-time call monitoring so your team can adapt to outages
• Cloud-based voice solutions that let your team work from anywhere with an internet connection

Even if your physical office is closed, we help ensure your digital doors stay open.

Preparing Now Means Staying Online Later
