Thomas Visscher – Commercial Director at AFIBER
“At AFIBER we enjoy a good challenge and Zayo’s team certainly laid down some tough requirements on reliability, routing and delivery speed for this project! What made this challenge even greater was the time pressure from effectively two stakeholders: Zayo’s network engineering team and the customer that had ordered Zayo services over the new fiber routes. I am convinced that AFIBER’s flexibility and local expertise helped to gain confidence in the solution we proposed. I was impressed the hands-on approach, quick decision-making and open communication by the Zayo team. They were instrumental for us to design the service and deliver this project in time.”
