eicomm was formed in 1999 as a shared hosting company running on a single server that was co-located in a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Data Center. The company was immediately built on a foundation of customers make the business.
From day 1 we have done our best to treat every customer, no matter how big or small, with the same high level of service and support. Our goal has always been to offer the most reasonable price with a high level of service and support.
In December of 2002 we made one of the most important decisions in the history of the company with moving to Ashburn, Virginia, which is about 30 miles west of Washington, DC. With the rapidly changing economy we felt it was best to move into a facility that would surpass the needs and expectations of our company. Equinix provided us with secured, private cage space to move our equipment into, and we were given direct access to over 100 tier1 and 2 ISPs to purchase bandwidth from directly. We share facilities with some of the most prestigious names in the tech industry today.

We have also chosen nLayer to be our primary bandwidth provider. We are directly connected to multiple gigabit, and 10 gigabit Internet backbones via 2, fully redundant, 1000Mbps fiber optic links. Another advantage of choosing Equinix and nLayer is that we are 2 hops, and less than 1ms away from over 30 other providers that nLayer is directly peered with in this facility which decreases the time it takes for a packet to reach it's destination, and increases the reliability of the connection. The relationships we have with these companies will allow us to grow much larger than we are today without fear of outgrowing their capabilities. This will also allow us to continue serving our customers with a high level of service and support, at a reasonable price.
