Testimonials

“We were able to sell our service and implement it, and we didn’t have to scale our internal resources. They enabled a service and enabled us to scale our business.”

- CEO of Internet Solutions Provider

“They make my job easier. I think I could pretty much sum it up with that. If I have a problem. They just take care of it.”

- Dir of IT for Financial Services Firm

“They’re not just an agent who’s writing orders and sending out RFP’s. They’re actually saying, ‘Here’s how we’re going to negotiate more favorable terms…We like this ROI better…This is a better provider…We’ll make less money, but it’s going to be a better company for you.’ They’re like an extension of my IT department that doesn’t cost me anything. The rest are just agents.“

- CFO of International Hospitality Group

“They know how to navigate that back end of the big bureaucracy. They know the prices. They know what the market is bearing. They know what to push on and what to let go of, versus me just going ‘price, price, price.’ They made the deal negotiation really seamless for us. I didn’t have to get my hands dirty at all. And there were real, substantial savings. It wasn’t a waste of time where we were saying, ‘Oh, we’re going to save $500 a month.’ We were saving thousands of dollars. For example, we were in a cage in a data center where we were paying our provider $17K a month. Now it’s down to $7K.”
