Why LA Businesses Choose Tierzero
Your upload speed matters
Video calls, cloud backups, VoIP — all require strong upload. Spectrum's 35 Mbps upload cap can bottleneck modern business operations.
Dedicated vs shared
Spectrum's HFC network shares bandwidth across neighboring businesses. During peak hours, your speeds suffer. Tierzero's dedicated circuits guarantee your bandwidth.
One bill vs multiple vendors
Spectrum internet requires separate vendors for VoIP and IT management. Tierzero bundles all three on one bill.
Local presence
Tierzero's team is based in LA. When you call, you reach someone who knows your neighborhood, not a national routing queue.
