Mangobay Cleveland

Our network operations center is in Brooklyn Heights, Ohio which is a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. If you are looking to colocate in Cleveland Ohio sometimes spelled collocation or co-location, you have found the right solution. Collocating a server at Mango Bay Internet is the best way to take advantage of high bandwidth access to your website(s) as well as the flexibility to maintain total control over your server. An alternative to the T1 or T3 connection to the Internet which is very costly, collocated equipment on our network allows you to avoid these monthly overhead costs while reaping the benefits of our network which is in place. It is a cost-effective way to connect directly to our Internet Backbone. Why would you want the costs associated with a T1 line @ $600+ per month or a T3 line @ $4500 a month when you can ship or drop off your equipment here at Mango Bay Internet?

We have many customers who are located throughout the United States that rely on their equipment to be up and running, 24x7x365 and connected to our backbone. We offer a climate controlled room at our offices which is a 1 story building that you can easily get access to. Other companies will offer collocation in a building in downtown Cleveland. Let us save you the time and hassle. Avoid traffic, parking, elevators and complicated access hours and unmanned telco rooms. Our facility is manned during normal business hours and is where we work!

We are proud to be one of the only service providers that had 0% downtime during the blackout of 2003. We gained customers as a result of our competitors not being prepared.
