The Corporate Sales Pitch (saving you an hour of boring sales meeting time):

Overview
Headquartered in Texas
Founded in 1983
25,000+ on-net and near-net buildings in footprint
285,000 fiber miles, 6,800 route miles
100+ on-net data centers

Services Sold
LOGIX provides a broad range of flexible business internet, phone, and data center options, from
simple to very complex configurations
Dedicated Internet – LOGIX Business Internet uses diverse Tier-1 Internet peering points and a range
of symmetrical speeds up to 10 GB to deliver fast and reliable Internet connectivity.
Private Ethernet – LOGIX Business Ethernet enables companies to utilize MEF 2.0 certified ethernet
services to obtain low-latency, highly available connectivity for business-critical site to site voice and
data applications.
Hosted Voice – LOGIX Business Voice Cloud delivers a feature-rich unified communications
experience backed by a carrier-grade network and data center redundancy enabling mobility, device
flexibility, and scalability. Voice Services – LOGIX Business Voice offers a full range of connection
types including analog, PRI, and SIP Trunking – all provided via fiber-based network delivery of
services.
Direct Cloud Connect – LOGIX Cloud Connect provides private, secure, and reliable network
connections to leading cloud service providers, including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure,
Google Cloud Platform, and others.
Data Center Colocation – Highly reliable, secure, and scalable solutions for housing business-critical
IT infrastructure with facilities in Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, and Austin. Wavelength – LOGIX
Business Wavelength is a robust, high-bandwidth solution for securely connecting data center and
enterprise locations at dedicated speeds up to 100 GB

Elevator Pitch
LOGIX is the largest fiber network provider in Texas. LOGIX provides business networking solutions
better than competitors because it can nimbly offer flexible connectivity options, a built-for-business
fiber network for reliability, and exceptional customer care and service from local employees.

 

Notes in Plain English:

Good offering overall from Logix – Fiber is very much based on who’s network is closest to the building. Logix seems to have the upper hand here.  There are rarely gimmicks with fast speeds for lower prices, it’s usually just because they’re closer or have some nearby clients you’ll help them reach by getting their network expanded.

 Logix’s weakness is coverage in other states – you shouldn’t have that problem in this area.

Notes in Plain English:

Most people wonder why Airespring is so successful when their pricing is so much higher.  Their main value is having everything under one umbrella. One bill, one customer care department.  For a single site this value is greatly diminished – but keep in mind all three services can be handled by them, and they have a fantastic reputation.  

We would not be surprised if this was a pass though, as most of the value they provide will be unrealized in your situation.

Luman may not have a familiar name, but it was recently rebranded from Centurylink, a legacy company from one of the “Baby Bells” when AT&T was deregulated in the 80’s.  Lumen is one of the 5 largest fiber carriers nationally.  

Note their internet option does not include a Router – this is ok because you’ll be adding the SD WAN router for security and failover if you choose this option. 

For a fiber option, this is priced better than the competitors because they happen to already be in your building.  It isn’t an inferior service in any way – someone else has already paid to get the cable in the building.

Notes in Plain English:

Frontier is the “original carrier” for your area – If the name is unfamiliar to you, they purchased the Verizon residential network a few years ago.  Their fiber is in your building already and they can provide both fiber and “shared” services – keep in mind, this typically means that a single cable services the building, so if redundancy is your goal it would make more sense to just choose one of their options combined with another carrier.

Their shared bandwidth options are fantastic and priced well below the market norm.

Notes in Plain English:

ACC Business is a company that built their reputation on dealing with the complexities of how the machine works – in ACC Business’ case, the machine is AT&T.  

For complex networks, they provide a ton of value.  Most companies won’t see that with a single site, however, which is why on paper they can seem overpriced.  When replacing multiple project managers and internal staff, the numbers make a lot more sense.  We don’t see it here as a perfect fit in your situation.

Notes in Plain English:

Zayo is typically the price leader in buildings where they already are.  For a global competitor, they are the price leader – but in this case you have some smaller competitors that are undercutting them.  

The truth is, their backbone is more solid than a smaller carrier, but the chance of outage for both services is so small the advantage is negligible.  The real burden would be a company-wide outage – at which Zayo would most likely recover faster – but any company presented here would have multiple fail safes to minimize the risk.

Notes in Plain English:

Spectrum coax is a great 2-network offer under a single brand.  Keep in mind, it’s not perfect – the service departments are separate, so it won’t completely eliminate finger pointing. A smaller concern is that they are the same brand – both networks rarely have an outage that affects them both, however it is not a 0% occurrence, as it has happened before. 

Further, Spectrum is a bigger brand and less likely to get acquired than the smaller companies – however even the large companies get merged from time to time.  If long term stability is worth the extra dollars then this is a good alternative.  Most companies with a small amount of locations in the same metro area will find that Spectrum can typically cover them all, a huge plus.  On the downside, their reliability is lower than more modern connection types that use fiber, so as a primary solution for a large office their Coax isn’t recommended, but it is great for small offices that can be backed up with a mobile phone, or larger offices that have multiple connections.

Notes in Plain English:

Spectrum has competitive pricing more in line with what the market norm is for 2021. As you can see from the other options, Spectrum will usually win with this offer, but it just so happens they’re against a smaller aggressive competitor in Logix.

On the bright side for Spectrum, they also offer the coax under their brand and combined it’s a great 2-network offer under a single brand.  Keep in mind, it’s not perfect – the service departments are separate, so it won’t completely eliminate finger pointing. A smaller concern is that they are the same brand – both networks rarely have an outage that affects them both, however it is not a 0% occurrence, as it has happened before. Further, Spectrum is a bigger brand and less likely to get acquired than the smaller Logix – however even the large companies get merged from time to time.  If long term stability is worth the extra dollars then this is a good alternative to Logix.  Most single site companies would take the best offer – having a single site change brands is less of a hassle than a large multi site migration switching processes mid-implementation.

Notes in Plain English:

For companies who want a carrier to do all the work, TPX is a great option.  On paper it’s more expensive, but having one company handle failover via it’s SD WAN box is a great value because it eliminates most other costs that typically would be charged from an in-house IT Consultant.

What we like most about this is the 4g backup with automatic mid-call failover for $115 more per month.  We can also explore adding additional connections from other providers – it handles up to four separate connections (and up to eight with further upgrades, unnecessary in your situation).

Notes in Plain English:

Hosted Voice services today are quite commoditized.  There is a big problem that they all share – if there is a voice quality issue, it is very hard to get the two companies (the voice company and the internet company) to agree on who’s problem it is.  This leads to nightmares when dealing with service issues.  

That being said, if you can overlook the issues, the functionality is lighty hears ahead of traditional voice services, and new features are added all the time.  

If you’re seriously considering voice services, it’s advised to schedule web-based demos of the systems to make sure they can do what you need – you’ll probably get some ideas that you didn’t realize were possible, too.

Notes in Plain English:

Regarding broadband services, AT&T services are typically more reliable than COAX services but the speeds are slower, albeit with less variation and a more solid connection.  Occasionally you will find AT&T “shared fiber” services, and they have an identical upload and download speed.  For speeds with a slower upload, they are the older DSL technology – still functional, but slower and less reliable than the fiber networks. In your quote’s case, it’s the shared fiber.  

A couple caveats for that shared connection pricing – it’s locked in for a year, but they WILL up the rates similar to a home cable service, so if you’re just switching for the price, don’t count on it staying that way forever.  The Fiber service rate is usually REDUCED over time, incidentally.  The dedicated fiber will have a speed closer to the service, and the shared service speed will fluctuate – but it is a great deal, so depending on your uses it might make sense.  If this is a backup circuit, you should be good to go.  If it’s a primary circuit, it might not be the best fit.

You may be asking, why doesn’t AT&T offer a direct quote when resellers and aggregators are able to do so?  Two things – #1, AT&T’s focus is on the largest of companies and residential.  Most companies outside of the fortune 500 fall outside of their radar.  #2, their tools might be more accurate than aggregators and have therefore chosen to no-bid this opportunity.  This could mean a potential challenge down the road if you choose to use an aggregator for Fiber services, so keep that in mind.

NEXT STEPS

First, we want to make sure this is what you were expecting and no changes were needed.  Of course you can always contact us directly and we’ll start working on it, but if you’d prefer you can choose an option below to discuss.  

Secondly, when we DO have what you need dialed in (which hopefully we’re there now, but if not, see above), then really one of four things can happen – 

#1 – You like one of the options and would like to discuss further about getting it going

#2 – You will pull the trigger at a later date due to an outside force (i.e. an upcoming move that’s waiting for a lease to be finalized, etc)

#3 – Things have changed and you no longer need anything at all (i.e. you decided to stay with your current provider or a project that caused this upcoming need was cancelled, etc)

#4 – You have some new needs and we need to tweak things

When any of those things happen, let us know and we’ll handle things accordingly. If you’d like to talk on the phone, we can do that. If you just want a quick chat, we can do that. If you want to schedule a meeting, we can do that. If you want to email, we can do that. Regardless, we just want to make things easier for you.  If we’ve missed something make sure to let us know so we can fix it ASAP.

Thank you for your trust

We look forward to working with you.
