Case Study: Cogent Communications expands into new markets with OTAVA colocation

Cogent Communications expects ROI within 12 months with Otava

Cogent Communications, a large global internet service provider, faced the challenge of expanding its services into new markets, which required finding a reliable data center and colocation partner. Key factors in their decision included geographic location, cross-connect policies, pricing, and a secure, carrier-neutral facility. They turned to their established partner, Otava, for its hosted colocation services to meet this need.

Otava provided colocation services in its Ann Arbor data center, which was quickly implemented within days. This solution enabled Cogent to achieve a fast time-to-revenue, with an expected return on investment within the first 12 months. The partnership allows Cogent to focus on innovation and growth while relying on Otava's support, and they plan to continue using Otava for future expansions.
