Tackling High Costs and Slow Setup Times
Amanah Tech turned to Zayo to connect their new data center, leveraging their decade-long relationship to address challenges and deliver a streamlined client experience.
Traditional data center environments can be a headache for businesses, with inefficiencies piling up at every step. From juggling separate data centers and network providers to dealing with steep connection fees and slow setup times, data center customers face challenges that add unnecessary costs and delays. On top of that, fragmented communication forces clients to bounce between multiple support teams, turning what could be a seamless process into a frustrating customer experience.
Amanah sought a reliable, streamlined connectivity solution designed to meet the needs of their small to medium-sized business clients. These businesses needed an affordable, straightforward option to remain competitive in today’s fast-paced digital environment.

Zayo supported Amanah Tech’s launch of its second data center, TOR2, at 151 Front Street. This facility features advanced, eco-friendly cooling systems, redundant power, and high-density fiber connectivity, reaffirming Amanah’s position as a leader in colocation services.
Here’s what Zayo’s solutions delivered:

It centralizes the communication with the client and gives them one point of contact, a one-stop shop where all their needs, be it bandwidth or space, are met.”
