Well my biased opinion is www.Site5.com, biased only because I have shared and co-location accounts with them and receive excellent service from them, and from NAC.

Are you looking to go direct in NAC? Providers such as Site5 and Pwebtech are in NAC, and can provide better dedicated options. You can get Jay at Pwebtech at jason@pwebtech.com

But are site5 or Pwebtech taking a profit off the servers? Wouldn't it be better to colo directly, than to go through a 3d party.

If yuo've ever looked at bandwidth prices, im sure you'd notice the fact that 25mbps is 1/2 the price per mbps that 1mbps is (if not less), by going with another facility, it may cause more work, more heartache, etc. but may actually have lower prices as they will push more volume, still make money off you, but will get the bandwidth cheaper, and increase the amount they get, making the rest of their bandwidth cheaper as well .Myles Loosley-Millman - admin@prioritycolo.com

It'd probably only be better to colo directly if you afford to buy in volume. Otherwise, you'll probably get a better deal through a 3rd party.

For example, I personally was noting issues with the route from NAC back to my office on the west coast - wasn't getting any reports from my users however I do tend to notice these things far in advance of users.
Anyway, through some simple testing I found that a PSI hop just outside NAC was causing the problem. I exchanged some notes with Todd Mitchell from Site5, we agreed there was a problem and he had a conversation with NAC - a couple hours later the PSI route disappeared from view, problem gone.
(NAC also turned up a new AT&T circuit and that happens to be the new route for traffic bound my direction)
From experience I know that having issues like this resolved with a minimum of fuss and bluster depends totally on relationships. Todd knows me; he knows NAC, it all works. There's value in relationships and this is one reason why I don't mind paying a little more for the NAC / Site5 relationship. Or even a lot more than some of the cut rate places.“Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under
