Global Capacity (News - Alert) is bringing a lot to the table this week at ITEXPO Las Vegas 2013. The network connectivity provider enables users to see into what it calls “the window into the marketplace” by delivering global network access services (i.e. Ethernet, TDM) via a unique, cloud-based application that enables custom network pricing and building. 

Fresh from speaking during a recent panel session, Mary Stanhope (News - Alert), VP of Product & Marketing, took some time to talk about Global Capacity’s top differentiators.

The company primarily fits two user needs: the need to extend network reach and the need to fill connectivity gaps. For the former, the problem revolves around the issue of being in one place but needing to extend connectivity to another. For the latter, the problem resides in the fact that no network is ubiquitous; you may be connected, but perhaps not everywhere you need to be. This is where Global Capacity comes into play.

“We build, own and manage our network,” Stanhope explains. “[Our offering] is built from pieces across a broad range of access providers who feel they have the most competitive price, access and connectivity.” Ultimately, this allows Global Capacity to offer its customers the most ubiquitous service on the market. Even more, the company’s exclusive pricing application enables those interested in accelerating network connectivity to begin their process in less than 60 seconds – all automated within the cloud.  And, best of all, users can click-to-order their custom-tailored solution.

Perhaps one of the greatest differentiators is that Global Capacity is not a reseller. The company owns its network, has invested the CAPEX, and has bought the capacity that connects its customers. “This is based on what we’ve seen in customer demand,” Stanhope notes. The company does about 500,000 quotes per month from its customers, tracking where they are located, what technologies they’re looking to buy and more.

There are many things Global Capacity guarantees for its users, including:

Increased time to market: At the end of the day, businesses need to achieve a faster and fuller sale cycle. With a 60 second quote, users can more quickly turn around answers to their customers, shortening a previously laborious process from days to as little as one hour.

Increased autonomy: Businesses desire a direct hand in the network they are investing in and building upon. Instead of outsourcing network capacity to a big-name brand, users want a deeper look into what they’re getting. Global Capacity offers users a marketplace of networks to build the marketplace they want, meaning they receive a unique level of autonomy, visibility and network transparency.

At the end of the day, the company’s core value is found in effectively navigating users from pricing to provisioning to the management phase in a fraction of the time made available with alternative options. Learn more about Global Capacity by clicking here.
