Businesses increasingly demand dedicated internet access (DIA) services because of the growing adoption of cloud-based applications as part of digital transformation initiatives. These cloud-based applications are latency sensitive and require uninterrupted high-bandwidth connectivity to operate efficiently. Furthermore,many businesses have adopted a hybrid working model,thus increasing the need for a range of connectivity solutions for a distributed workforce. The Frost & Sullivan award recognizes that Spectrum Enterprise is providing a comprehensive portfolio of solutions,including Fiber Internet Access (FIA),Wireless Internet Access,high-capacity broadband and ultra-high speed data services that meet these connectivity needs of today's businesses,while also providing some of the industry's strongest service level agreements (SLAs).
