Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio — serving multi-location businesses from a single Ohio location to 40-site national footprints. Carrier-neutral advice and a president in every account, since 2003.
Buckeye Telecom was built on a simple idea: Ohio businesses deserve better than the carrier-driven, one-size-fits-all approach that has dominated telecom and IT for decades. Too many owners were sold long contracts, oversized circuits, and support lines that led nowhere.
So we built something different — a carrier-neutral, locally owned firm with engineers, not salespeople, answering the phone. Twenty-three years later, we still work for our clients, not a carrier. We say no to what doesn't fit, even when it would be profitable for us, and we measure ourselves by one thing: do our clients stay? They do.
JEJonathan leads every aspect of Buckeye Telecom — operations, strategy, and client relationships — hands-on. Partner with Buckeye and you work with the president of the company, backed by a deep team of engineers, account managers, and support specialists.
You get Buckeye’s own specialists working alongside the engineering teams of the carriers and platforms we place — brought in as the project needs them, all directed by Jonathan as your single point of accountability. You get the right expert for the work, without carrying a payroll to get it.
SD-WAN, multi-site connectivity, and circuit cutovers — designed and executed.
Hosted voice, Teams Phone, and number porting — planned around your call flows.
24/7 monitoring, MFA, endpoint, and audit-ready documentation.
Multi-site rollouts coordinated to a date — not a “we’ll get to it.”
Invoice audits, renewals, and carrier negotiations that claw back spend.
Jonathan owns the relationship end to end — you never chase a vendor.
Vendor-neutral means we compare them all and place whatever genuinely fits each address — then manage it for you. A sample of who we work across:
…and 100+ more. We’re not tied to any of them — which is exactly why our recommendation is yours, not theirs.
A real person on our team picks up — no offshore queues, no phone tree.
We compare 100+ providers and recommend only what fits — never a house brand.
We don’t bury you in long contracts where a shorter term serves you better.
We tell you what you need — and just as often, what you don’t.
A team that knows your business and your sites, not a new rep every quarter.
If we’re not the best fit for something, we’ll tell you who is.
