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 NTT/Verio to be our primary bandwidth provider. We are
directly connected to their quadruple OC-48 backbone via 2, fully redundant,
1000Mbps fiber optic links. Another advantage of choosing Equinix and NTT/Verio is that we are 2 hops, and less than 1ms away from over 25 other
providers that NTT/Verio 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.
