Fiber Dedicated VS Fiber Shared

Fiber Dedicated or Fiber Shared

I’ve been on a 50/50 Cox fiber dedicated connection for years and it’s been very okay. It’s never gone down and *most* of the time my backup uploads get to the DR site in a timely fashion.

I’m now looking at the 1000/1000 (aka Gigabit) connection offered by Cox at a lower price.

OnPrem:
Email w/ Outlook
Email Active Sync for 40 iPhones

So basically we download email and browse the web. No video calls. No VoIP.
Off-site DR which can be up to 50 GB a day.

Please tell me your recommendation and experiences.

Thanks!

Lower price? Newer tech? Asymmetric 1G speed?

Take it!

It sounds like your daytime needs would be really low. More bandwidth at night for less money? Sign me up!
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.
