These services and more are all possible with fiber – the key differentiator in a high-speed world ad a necessary building block for 5G. What Our Customers Are Saying "Fiber has been a godsend. Before AT&T fiber, the office and retail center I own lacked reliable and fast internet connectivity. It was impacting my ability to attract new tenants and keep quality existing tenants," said Shane Glass, property owner and manager, Three Flags Center. "AT&T was able to get fiber into all 6 of our buildings. In the 8 months since, we have been 100% leased. More importantly, my tenants are very satisfied with both the reliability and blazing speeds AT&T fiber provides." "Blooming Potential works with children with Autism and other developmental and behavioral concerns. Due to the nature of our applied behavior analysis and speech therapy services, each therapist documents their sessions using an app on a tablet," said Tiffany Rigal, owner, Blooming Potential. "With so much of our record-keeping being digital, we need fast and dependable technology. And that's what we get with AT&T Dedicated Internet on AT&T fiber. We can worry less about our technology and remain focused on helping each child succeed." AT&T Partner Solutions We make it easy for business customers to sign up for fiber on their terms.
