t1stop.com, powered by ShopforT1's GeoQuote technology, regards your privacy
as the first step in building a long term relationship of trust and loyalty.
Our GeoQuote(tm) technology enables you to query the databases of over
a dozen nationwide and regional T1 service providers in real-time. In order to
perform this calculation for you, we require a nominal amount of personal
data.
What happens to my information once I submit it to GeoQuote?
Just seconds after you submit your information, GeoQuote goes to work.
A page of qualifying T1 service providers (without the names of the providers)
will appear, with links to obtain detailed information about the plans
you are viewing. After your price quote is obtained, GeoQuote stores
the data you entered in our ulta-secure database. No third party can
access our database so you can rest assured that you will not receive
annoying phone calls or emails from multiple providers after entering your
information here!
At the end of the process, your information is securely assigned to
a member of our in-house consulting staff. That consultant will attempt
to contact you via your preferred contact method in order to discuss
your situation and find the right product at the right price. Helping you
get a great rate on a T1 line is our first priority and you can rest assured
that our team of trained and experienced consultants will give you the
unbiased research you deserve.
A T-1 line actually consists of 24 individual channels, each of these channels supports 64 Kbits per second. Each 64Kbit per second channel can be configured to carry data or voice transmissions.
A T1 connection is sometimes referred to as a "dedicated service" as the service is delivered to and from the customer premise from the CO (Central Office) without combining it with other traffic.
A T1 connection is established by providing a loop or wire from the user premises to the CO where the service provider has equipment. Part of the cost of a T1 is the loop charge or the monthly rental fee for the wire that is rented from the local phone company.
T-1 lines are a popular leased line option for businesses connecting to the Internet and for Internet Service Providers (ISP's) connecting to the Internet backbone.
The Internet backbone itself consists of faster T-3 line connections.
Shopping for T1 lines is not easy. You perform a search in your favorite search engine and you see millions of pages, all of which claim to save you money.
They create simple HTML forms that look like they have been programmed by a seventh grade student which captures your information, and either sends it to every vendor in the universe or some in-house former used-car salesman who will sell you whatever will pay him the biggest bonus.
A T1 Line and DSL connection both offer bandwidth at high speed but there are factors that greatly differentiate them from one another. These factors are price and reliability.
Depending on your location and T1 provider availability, a fractional T1 will normally be priced between $250.00 and $750.00. A T1 is more expensive than a DSL connection but is much more reliable.
DSL is a quick and cost effective method of acquiring high speed bandwidth however it is not intended to support commercial applications or large numbers of users like a T1 connection.
With software like GeoQuote, getting a t1 price has never been easier. Finally you'll be able to use your time for real analysis rather than hunting down information. With the information in front of you you'll have the information you need to study out the right plan for you. Now you won't have to feel like you have to have a 45 minute with the local phone company just to find out how much your service will cost. As GeoQuote is an information service that's exactly what you get....Information without the sales pitch.
GeoQuote is currently used by ShopForT1.com and several other licensees. Typically an agent will contact you after you have received your instant quote. Don't panic! These agents are not there to pressure you. Use them and their expertise to further investigate the services and carriers you see on your quote. We recommend the use of agents in any search for service and we also recommend using a broker to sign up for your service. Many people believe they can "beat the system" by contacting a broker to get pricing and other information as quickly as possible and will then go straight to the carrier believing they can get better service. This "end-run" process is actually a good way to cut yourself out of some of the biggest advantages of having a broker. Brokers don't mark up the price of services. They offer the same price you would get if you did go direct to the company.
The advantage of ordering through a broker is that you will get a second channel of customer service. If the company is not performing to expectation you will always be able to go back to your agent/broker who puts a significant volume through the carrier. An agent/broker is much more likely to get the companies attention and have your problem solved. In our opinion, GeoQuote real time pricing and an agent/broker is the only way to go!
