How 6connect Began
6connect was formed by four people that saw the need for honest and reliable internet infrastructure services. The best way to create a business environment for this to happen was a new setup unencumbered by legacy issues.
In 2009, we started with the vision of providing a framework for delivering managed infrastructure services, and built that into the holistic datacenter framework that our customers enjoy today.
A Unique Perspective
Our team has extensive operations experience in the datacenter and managed services industries. A prescient thought for all of us was leveraging automation to provide a better customer experience and higher system reliability. What does this perspective give you? How about complete system visibility in power consumption and efficiency of your application? Our background in facility systems and system architecture allow us to collect, analyze and display this information for you in near real-time.
Insightful Tools
Our focus on customer tools means we have to leverage automation. This gives flexibility to our solutions and allows for ease of management and operation. We have put a lot of work into HIVECentral to ensure customers have access to as much data as they want. Have a suggestion or idea? Bring it on! Our team thrives on challenges and appreciates feedback…
Culture of Innovation
6connect is a unique company in many ways. Our team has technical experience in a variety of industries, so providing customized business solutions is a specialty. From web companies to enterprises to non-profits, 6connect can help provide the framework for innovation to take place. We provide iterative releases to HIVECentral and are constantly working with customers and prospects to see what new solutions we can provide.
At 6connect, we respect the role our customers play, and we strive to provide services that highlight this.
