[kwimberl]

What data centers do you recommend for the Tampa Bay, FL area?

[allera]

There's a Qwest one there now, and a Peak-10 one opening up in mid-2002 (www.peak-10.com), or so their site says.

differant data centers are better for differant things. Some centers have great customer support, other have great prices. In the area of prices some have great wholesale prices, and others have great retail prices. If you would clarify a bit I'm sure somebody would be able to refer a good data center. Any reason why you need it in the tampa area?

[kwimberl]

Because I just moved to Clearwater, FL (tampa bay area) and we are considering placing our new servers in a data center here rather than the ones we are currently using. Basically, I want to know who my options are and what people think of them. I'll do my own negotiating (obviously).

Welcome to my part of the woods kwimberl (I live just south of you in Mad. Beach)

Over the years I checked with a few companies in this area... of course as listed above, you will find Wizardshosting is just past Tampa near Lakeland according to their site... Not too far away, and in a good land location..

Other companies in company in Tampa Bay:

candidhosting.com - Tampa
IJ.net - has a good connection to sprint, they may offer you something.

There are others in Tampa (especially downtown) you may have to do some searching on the collocation listings.
Time Warner has an NOC in Brandon as well.

Good luck and drop me a PM if you like.
