In case you were wondering what to ask, feel free to look at some of the questions we get asked on a daily basis:

1. How secure is your physical site?

Physical security is one of the most important things to take into consideration when selecting a data center to collocate with. Every data center should have some of the following security measures: 24/7 security personnel on-site, monitored entry to the facilities and cameras all over the center. Colocation America goes the extra step and offers luxuries such as code-based and electronic card controlled entry, high resolution closed circuit TV surveillance cameras and state of the art secure locking cabinets and cages.

2. Where will equipment be housed & will I have access to it?

Colocation America houses your servers in our secure facilities, complete with 24/7 on-site security and locked cabinets monitored by cameras. Our clients are given either a keycard or personalized code, depending on the facility, to have 24/7 access to their servers.

3. Are support staff members available 24/7?

Yes! Here at Colocation America, we believe that no matter what time or day it is, you should always have access to your rightful information.

We cover various aspects to alleviate your stress in network, hardware, software and application management.
