Why Use Sound Internet?
Redundant Links to
the Internet
In technical jargon it's called 'Multi-Homing'. This gives us extra
protection against outages. Should one of our links to the Internet
suffer an unexpected failure we have backup facilities in place to
automatically take over. What it means to you is more reliable access
to the Internet. Most Internet providers try to cut corners by using
only a single link... putting all their eggs in one basket.
Ample Capacity
What good is that high speed connection if your service is only going to be
choked at your Internet Provider? Our average bandwidth utilization is
below 10% which means that you can experience the full benefit of the
latest high speed technology.
Everyday
Support
Should you ever run into problems you can be assured top-notch support.
Our telephone lines are answered 7 days a week. No need to wade through
endless mazes in some voice-mail system, wouldn't you rather be greeted
promptly by a human voice?
Generator and Un-Interruptible
Power Supplies (UPS)
If the power goes out, your Internet service doesn't need to. High
availability is one of the many things that sets us apart.
