When it comes to making its mark in New York State’s capitol, tw telecom (News - Alert) – one of the three largest business Ethernet providers – is doing a pretty good job so far.

Recently, tw telecom’s Albany-area customers shed light on how tw telecom’s local team and investment model are promoting business growth and access to cloud-based applications for these companies and organizations.

According to the business Ethernet provider, now is an “amazing” time for businesses as the Internet and other converged communications have revolutionized how companies communicate. In Malta, N.Y. and Albany, N.Y., tw telecom is touting itself for harnessing the capabilities of today’s newest technologies and enabling its customers to communicate in a “fast, reliable and cost effective environment that’s right for them,” officials said in a recent video.

And Bar Wiegman of Global Spec certainly concurs.

“When I’m asked about the reliability of tw telecom’s networks, two words come to mind – no worries,” Wiegman said. Global Spec, an Internet-based business keeps its customers happy by providing stable networks and this is in large part due to its partnership with tw telecom. As put by Wiegman, Global Spec has relied on the business Ethernet provider for over 10 years because it has “always exceeded our expectations.”

According to tw telecom officials, the company’s mantra is to listen and understand a client’s business objectives, collaborate with the client’s most trusted resources and deliver a solution that improves the client’s bottom line. From the multi-location businesses that need to connect across town to the national companies that need to connect across the country, tw telecom offers a variety of business Ethernet solutions such as virtualization, cloud computing, disaster recovery and cloud storage.

In fact, tw telecom’s newest colocation facility in Malta makes good on the company’s value proposition as it provides customers with a “safe, reliable, and highly secure data center environment that’s both affordable and designed to use environmentally friendly, state of the art cooling systems,” according to company officials.

One organization that has certainly taken advantage of tw telecom’s colocation facility is New York State United Teachers, an organization with various locations across New York State.

“tw telecom provides us with a network infrastructure so that those locations have access to their email and also to the Internet,” Madeline Connolly of New York State United Teachers said in the video. “Our local account rep provides us with services and pricing that are both reasonable and meet our needs every day.”

The Malta location boasts privately-owned fiber optic networks that are perfect for any industry that stipulates a need for highly secure and scalable bandwidth to support any amount of voice, data and video traffic, tw telecom officials said. The business Ethernet provider can also customize cost effective solutions for any industry.

“To us, service is more than simply reacting to a customer survey,” a tw telecom official said in the video. “It’s listening and collaborating with customers to understand their business challenges and then working together to deliver innovative solutions that help them succeed. It’s the tw telecom customer experience we strive for ever day. Our people care about your business; it’s our passion and our culture.”
