We are on 2 gigs of Cogent in our west coast facility. All the haters came out when they found they couldnt compete with it.
Best line of defense was to bash and spread fear of downtimes and bankruptcy...both of wich can happen to any provider.
It has been rock solid for 13 months now.WE also have 5 other providers as well.
Bad news is...the fear mongoring worked to an extent. A day does not go by that I wont get an email like this:
"Hi I hear you have Cogent, and that if I put my sites on it I will go broke because of all the downtimes and they might go out of business, my cousins brothers buddy told me this" .
Well month after month we have proiven this is false.
Good news is....We have premium BGP4 routed bandwith close to the same prices now so if you just cant stand the "C" word , you have a choice with us.
Todd if your serious about wanting a 100 mb pipe, let me know.
