Internet speed is extremely important to all businesses. No one wants to do business with a company whose site is slow. While there are many alternative internet-speed services to solve this problem, the needs of the business, along with the size of the budget, will dictate the best possible solution.  While T1 is a great solution for companies with multiple locations reporting back to a main office, it may be too costly for the smaller company who needs a more traditional internet package or too limiting for a company that needs even faster speeds that only fiber optics can deliver. Being familiar with the many choices will help determine which plan is best for you.
