Opinions on Cologix data centers?
Hello; was curious if anyone has opinions on Cologix? Any aspect would be of interest; management, financials, colo quality (power, a/c, etc). The specific facility I'm looking at is their Lakeland FL building which began life under a company called Colo 5 that they purchased; it's only two years old. They seem to have been on a buying spree recently with other colo buildings. Thanks, David
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi David, We've been in their facility in Dallas for about a year now and have had great luck with them. Very happy with there service. DISCLAIMER: We have our own AS and do not buy bandwidth from them, so I can not attest to their connectivity, but their power and cooling have been consistently awesome.

I used/inherited them in Montreal after they bought out a series of colos. The corporate management team is good and I would work with them again. They saw themselves as partners and not just a vendor. The local DC manager/team was honest and easy to work with and they were very knowledgeable. The quality of the facility and success of your projects depends in great deal on what they bought and what stage they are at in upgrading it. In my case, the original DC had some design issues they were battling with related to the previous owner + unplanned growth that forced some poor decisions. Cologix did, however, redesign everything and make some major investments in the facility. We saw improvements come out every few months.

I recommend them for everything other than the quality of their remote hands. They could do with some improvements in this department. We have space at Cologix Dallas (within Infomart), and it's all fine. We run our own ASN too though, so no idea on the bandwidth side of things. On 12/15/2015 06:12 AM, Oliver O'Boyle wrote:
