Why Use Horizon POC Instead of Regular Cellular Phones

In today’s fast-paced, mission-critical environments, reliable and immediate communication can mean the difference between smooth coordination and chaos. While smartphones have become a staple for personal and business use, they aren’t always the best tool for team-based communication.
At Nielson Communications, we provide advanced communication tools that help teams work smarter, respond faster, and stay connected in the moments that matter most.
Here’s why more organizations are choosing Horizon PoC over traditional cellular phones:
Instant Communication at the Push of a Button
With Horizon PoC, users can instantly connect with one or multiple team members by pressing a single button. There’s no dialing, ringing, or app-loading delays, just real-time, voice-first communication.
Seamless Group Communication & Lower Latency
Horizon PoC enables real-time group calls with significantly lower latency than traditional voice calls, allowing multiple users to hear and respond instantly, reducing misunderstandings, improving response times, and making it the ideal solution for teams where clear, immediate communication is non-negotiable. Whether it’s a construction crew, event staff, or a security team, everyone stays on the same page.
No Need for Traditional Radio Infrastructure
