Yeah cogent is great, accept for that time they dropped a /15 for no reason and took 24 hours to get it back up. Aside from that it's been a great experience.

Very responsive (I called on a Sunday and had someone with good enough clue + router access pick up instantly.) NOC is competent, and my sales guys (I've had two so far) are not pushy at all. I don't have any real complaints. I'd rate them higher than most of my other upstreams as far as NOC competency goes. On 2/6/2015 午前 03:00, Christopher Rogers wrote:

Cogent is not. Their sales guys love to scrape whois records too, and won't leave you the hell alone.
I've used both extensively, and now typically just avoid cogent.

My organization is currently shopping for some additional Transit Capacity to augment our existing interconnects. We've got around 8 distinct AS's that we're receiving transit routes from, followed by a handful of Public IX's and Private PNI's to AS's that warrant them. That said, the networks that are on our radar are Cogent and NTT. I've done some due diligence poking around on their Looking Glass, but I'd love to hear any user experiences from the community, both from a Layer 3 Perspective, as well as an Operational Perspective (Working with the businesses themselves). Feel free to contact me off-list and thanks in advance for your time.
