What we source

Where we help

01

Colocation

Rack, cage or suite. Power, cooling, cross-connects, remote hands and location compared like for like.

02

Public and private cloud

Infrastructure, hosted private cloud and managed cloud options, matched to workloads and compliance needs.

03

Connectivity to the data center

Dedicated internet, private WAN, SD-WAN and direct cloud on-ramps tying your offices to where workloads run.

04

Backup and disaster recovery

Offsite backup, replication and recovery options with recovery targets written into the contract.

05

Managed security

Firewall, monitoring and related services sourced alongside the network instead of as a separate project.

06

Contracts and renewals

Renewal language, escalators, exit terms and SLA credits reviewed before you sign. See contract renewal defense.

How it works

A CIO-ready process

  1. Requirements. Workloads, growth, compliance, latency, recovery targets, budget window.
  2. Shortlist. Options normalized so price, power, SLAs and term compare cleanly.
  3. Contract review. Renewal language, escalators, exit terms, SLA credits.
  4. After signature. We track renewals and stay on escalations.
Fit

Who this is for

  • Companies moving out of an on-premise server room
  • Teams with colocation or hosting renewals coming up
  • Multi-site businesses connecting offices to cloud workloads
  • IT leaders who want one advisor across phones, internet, data center, cloud and security
Common questions

Before you call

Do you resell or own data centers?
No. Buckeye is an independent advisor. We compare providers and you contract directly with the one you choose.
How are you paid?
Providers pay us. How we get paid explains it, and it doesn't change your price.
Can you help with cloud and colocation outside Ohio?
Yes. We work nationwide, for one office or hundreds.
Do you replace our IT team or MSP?
No. We handle sourcing, contracts and renewals. Your IT team or MSP keeps running the environment.
