Just wondering if anyone can tell me their
opinion on Savvis bandwidth/company preferably
from a web host perspective.  Considering a

They might be a good provider for reaching Comcast (when they're not
advertising inconsistently), but so are Level3 and Global Crossing.

I hear they've got some pretty serious peering problems in the US.


I got an offlist to my response asking about their peering issues. I
said I couldn't comment because I haven't personally experienced any
problems. If anything, I rerouted traffic through SAVVIS heavily during
the Sprint/Cogent peering thing since one of my upstreams is Sprint.
