<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">Equinix is an excellent facility and the major bonus is that they have 24x7 Smart Hands with Equinix staff on-site. Bulletproof may offer this in Global Switch
but they would be traveling to the Data Centre from a remote site. If you wanted Global Switch with on-site support you could look at HarbourMSP as they have staff on-site at their NOC in Global Switch 24x7x365.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">Both have a large amount of carrier access, both have very good security and both have very reliable power systems etc so I really think the only major differentiator
is the on-site LOC at Equinix who can provide on the ground support. In saying this at times, you can be made to wait a fairly lengthy period for support but usually within 60 minutes at the far end of the scale.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
