Ha! “Surprised”? Well, offering OOB for a reasonable price could be a differentiator for the savvy colo providers, but bean counters say: “Huh? If customer X wants OOB, they can pay ~$300/mo for a cross-connect”. ~$300/mo might seem an exaggeration, but not for some of us. Even ~$150/mo is ridiculous.

$300/month would be a bargain at One Summer

For what it’s worth, I really like Markley. Everybody that works there is fantastically helpful and they don’t cut corners on their infrastructure. Only gripe is X-Connect pricing
