Network Costs Spiraling Out Of Control

Managing networks is a complicated and laborious task that few businesses have the resources to do well.  It requires real-time network visibility to proactively manage performance when it suffers.  As most network managers have neither the visibility nor the resources, they effectively outsource this management to their ISP. 

Through SLA compliance, ISPs report stellar service to the customers for their connectivity, which is often the case, but only part of the performance story.  Most data traverses multiple networks on its way to a final destination, but the ISP cannot and does not report performance over these other networks - it is not in their customer contract - but is often where performance degradation begins in earnest.  This conflicted message leads many network managers to assume that the connectivity is performing well, but a simple lack of bandwidth is to blame - thus they "throw bandwidth" at problems, adding unnecessary costs to an otherwise well-built network.

Internap has developed proprietary technical solutions to enable increased visibility into networks to allow cost containment and increased management capability.  Now your networks may be managed just like any other part of your business, finding ways to cut costs and building out where needed.
