Would like to see more east coast locations

Post by technut74 »

Nfo only has two locations on the east coast....Would love to see more location added, Virginia, New Jersey or even Boston. East coast could definitely use one or two more locations

All of those locations generally have <30ms to NY or Chicago.

All of those areas are very close to New York and it likely wouldn't be beneficial to open locations there, the difference would be very minimal but the cost would be quite high.

Jersey and New York = same. Virginia and Atlanta = virtually the same.

Not for nothing, but your request would fall on the almost unreasonable side. The power that NFO has back boned in New York and Atlanta is more than enough for anyone on the east coast. If anything, I would love to see the premium bandwidth that other locations have, like 50GBPS. Though that will probably not happen anytime soon.

If we were to add another east coast location, the only one that I'd really consider would be Miamia. That would solely be for the benefit of South American/Caribbean clients. I have held off on it because there just hasn't been enough demand.

Previously we had a Washington, D.C. location. We shut it down because it was costly and unpopular. Most clients went with NYC, instead, and we're just as happy there.
