“It is crucial that we are able to maintain our operations at all times. We have high traffic on our network 24/7 and we need confidence that our network and connections will be robust and redundant. Orixcom were able to offer us a connection in Equinix DX1 for significantly less than any other solution that was available on the market and we are very pleased with their service.”
