Due to some issues with my current Boulder, CO colo facility, I am planning on moving my server. I want to get the box closer to me in Denver, and was wondering if anyone knew of any good Denver or DTC based colocation facilities.

******** is solid. Pricey but very solid.

Check out Inflow (inflow.com)

inflow was one of my original data centers on my list. Unfortuantely they are a little pricy for me at this particular point of time as I don't need the kind of bandwidth they provide. Right now I'm paying about $200/mo for 200kbit/s (60GB mo) bandwidth. I would like to find something around the same price range, but am willing to spend a little more if necessary.

marksy , I think they were banned for a reason.

I'm sure it was a good reason - I'm just too lazy to search. Anyhow, just passing on my experience - they were a great company for me.

www.VenturesOnline.com - moved to Denver two or 3 months ago - a bit pricey but great.

DotComster, thanks a lot for that place! Less than what I pay now (by almost half!) and right across the street from my house. Will be PERFECT for everything. No more hour treks to Boulder

*gives thirty day notice to current coloc*

Ventures Online offers great colo services there. Great service, great pricing (as far as I'm concerned), wonderful people, etc etc etc.

We're very happy with VO :) (And VO is a bargin compared to Inflow ...)

Yeah, I'm going to be shelling out $135 a month or so for the bandwidth I currently need. Inflow it would come out to $500.

I'm very very impressed with them, and from what I hear, I should have no problems what so ever.

I've been in just about every facility in Denver and Boulder - the only one I would recommend out the lot for stability, power and lack-of-stuck-up-own-orifice is @Lightspeed - though I think they've changed their name, been about 6 mo's since I was there and anything could've happened :) Last I heard Inflow were struggling, though they finally get it that no-one wants to pay for fussball tables any more :) Anyway, Mayor Webb has a lot of interest in keeping @LS going - so they'll be around for the long haul...

Last I heard Inflow were strugglingThey are EBITA positive now (which does not mean much in my book) but should be cash flow + by year end. They just closed on 35 Million and it's in the bank! :)

Cool :) Art Ziel's a pretty driven guy, proof's in the pudding :)

I love EBIDTA positive, the first time I heard that was in a hosting company... "um.. let's lower the profitable bar a bit shall we to something more attainable" :)
