Geo gave us the flexibility we needed to provision our UK fibre network within fixed time constraints. This included taking the legacy dark fibre that was already provisioned into our data centre and integrating that into Geo’s UK network. We received excellent levels of support throughout the process from design to handover. Working with Geo to provide dedicated fibre has given us the peace of mind that our network is robust enough to meet our clients' 24x7 demands. What’s more we now have the capacity to scale up to 40Gbps and beyond without disruption to existing services, giving us the ability to grow with ease over time. David Barker, Technical Director, 4D Data Centres
“Geo is the industry leader in fibre infrastructure, so were the obvious choice for our next-generation network. When completed, it will pioneer 40/100Gb networking, giving unmatched performance and ultra-low latency connectivity from over 40 data centres with a sub-2 millisecond “any to any” dual data centre topology for customers’ critical applications, especially for the media and financial sectors.” Craig Denton, Director, Next Connex
Talk Talk Technology
“We have chosen Geo’s solution because it gives us the tools to grow our network and therefore our business. Our network has been designed with only our requirements in mind, so it’s instantly a better fit to our needs.” Neil McArthur, Managing Director, Talk Talk Technology

We are delighted that we can now provide our customers with a dedicated network that satisfies their ever more complex requirements.” Stuart Ebdon, Head of Infrastructure Services Development, Fujitsu Services
“Expanding beyond our home of fifteen years in the Docklands was a huge project for LINX. This was by far the largest expansion we’ve ever undertaken, and adding three new sites to the exchange in the far reaches of London – all within four months – was always going to be an enormous challenge. Thankfully, Geo was more than equal to this challenge, offering both the network and the collaborative mindset required to get the job done.” John Souter, CEO, LINX
HP
“The Wynyard Data Centre incorporates the very best of data centre design, from the environmental features critical to its efficient operation through to the IT infrastructure. A key consideration in designing communication infrastructure for the facility was modelling all possible points of network failure to the highest levels of diversity and security. Geo demonstrated their capabilities in this respect and were selected for their ability to meet these demanding requirements“ Gary Bailey, HP-Enterprise Services Network Programme Manager, HP
“Geo offered us a really compelling solution. They provide us with a dedicated pair of fibres, over which we currently run a 10 GB/second connection, however we could easily raise that to 50 GB/second should the business require it. We’re essentially future proofed and can massively increase our capacity with relatively little disruption thanks to Geo’s fibre“ Tim Hyman, IT Director, Taylor Wessing
“We needed a secure, fast and reliable network to link our new Milton Keynes office at The Pinnacle with our Fleet Place office in London. The nature of our business means that data security is of the utmost importance to us as well as high data speeds. Overall a dedicated network provided a sounder financial investment and the necessary network attributes today and for the future“ David Everitt, IT Technical Architect & Quality Manager, DentonWildeSapte
Eden Brown “The link between the sites is instant. It’s as if the other site is on the same site, and since its installation, there’s been no downtime at all. Now we can give other HBHC companies back-office support. They can piggy-back our server because there’s an almost infinite amount of bandwidth“ Cham Bain Smith, IT Manager, Eden Brown
Stream Communications
“As a leading provider of advanced machine-to-machine (M2M) streaming services, Stream Communications relies on a dependable network infrastructure. Geo Networks provides us the fibre backbone to assure us of a secure, reliable foundation, leaving us to focus our efforts on continuing to develop and deliver cutting edge mobile solutions to some of the world’s biggest names“ Alan Tait, Technical Manager, Stream Communications
Gyron
“Geo, unlike a lot of other fibre providers, were extremely helpful in working with us to identify suitable fibre-rich sites. They were therefore a natural choice when it came to tendering for the fibre connectivity itself. As a business our success is inextricably linked to the quality and affordability of our connectivity. Geo was able to deliver on both counts. The dedicated fibre link allows Gyron to run its own network, applying Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology over it to get nearly unlimited bandwidth from a single connection“ Robin Balen, Managing Director of Gyron
Secura Hosting
“Our business relies on our customers having access to our network 24/7. Completion was just under a month from project “kick-off” to finish – which is unheard of with fibre installs. This actually included a third party delay that was outside of Geo’s hands. However, they still managed to far exceed our expectations with both their installation speed and with the constant visibility and feedback we received. Geo was the only provider that could promise us absolute diversity. Furthermore, Geo gives us the ability to improve or increase our services on demand and therefore further our reach to other on-net locations simply and cost effectively. This means we can build better services for our clients as and when we need to in order to flex to changing demand“ Mark Castle, Director, Secura Hosting
Open Hosting
“We wanted a data network solution that’s robust and future proof because our customers are online 24/7. Our business is totally dependent on the highest standards of network availability and capacity. Geo gives us absolute peace of mind by providing us with a highly resilient and reliable network that we can scale as and when our needs require it. Geo also gives us complete flexibility“ Chris Byrd, Technical Director, Open Hosting
“This was a significant deal for Epsilon as we provide global connectivity solutions between all the major regional telecommunications hubs to facilitate voice and data communications for carrier customers. Reliability, resilience, customer service and speed of delivery are therefore critical. We do not simply measure return on investment in Pounds Sterling but more importantly in customer satisfaction and ideally zero churn. It was important for us to work with a fibre network provider like Geo because it could provide us with the right national network reach and performance to ensure that we remain a leader in our market“ Andreas Hipp, CEO of Epsilon
Viatel
“It’s important that Viatel offers a highly secure, robust and reliable network to all its customers. We’re seeing increasing demand for capacity from enterprises across vertical markets, so it’s critical that we provide business resilience by having a diverse data and voice route in place. Geo has built a strong reputation for itself in this market. Its sewer-based London network gives us peace of mind that it is runs along a physically separate route to any of the other networks in the City“ *Lucy Woods, CEO, Viatel
Siminn

Geo, who was highly recommended to us, has helped us fulfil our capacity planning needs for the near future in a very cost-effective and efficient manner“ Thor Jes Thorisson, Chief Technical Officer, Siminn

We were greatly impressed not only by the cost effective nature of Geo’s fibre solution, but also by their experienced project team who successfully delivered the solution in a timely manner“ Andy Morris, Service Director, Gamma Telecom
iomart
“Because we can deliver complete managed hosting solutions – from domain name to data centre – we aren’t reliant on third party data centre operators and are able to offer our clients a 100% business uptime guarantee. It was therefore imperative that our network partner could demonstrate a similar approach in terms of performance guarantees, accountability, quality and value to those that we offer our own client base. Geo convinced us of its ability to deliver on all counts“ Sarah Haran, Managing Director, iomart
Interxion UK
“Due to our location in the City, as well as our recent expansion, we are seeing increased interest in colocation space from financial, gaming and technology businesses who want highly secure ultra-fast fibre connections. Geo is extremely well equipped to meet their mission-critical requirements“ Greg McCulloch, Managing Director, Interxion UK
