Awesome new tool for checking if your building is lit with fiber or not
-
I know how annoying it is for you guys to have to work with sales guys to find out who is on net. Carrier and Internet should be just like other products and services where you can do 70% of the research up front on your own. We have built one of the largest databases of On Net providers in the US with an easy to use Google Map API to research who is lit in your building. Buildinglit.com
Also has a really nice contract and quote management system built into it if you want to get pricing all in one location as well.
-
more like give us your info so we can give you spam sales calls.
-
@Jason Naw it's not for spamming. But good feedback that you were concerned for that.

Then remove the requirement for an email address.

And even company name.
-
@Jason Ok this is in Beta so that may happen. I'll report the feedback to the powers that be.
-
Where is the terms of service on how you may use, collect and store this information that is required to use the site?
-
Eh you are right.. it's not on the font page anymore. Used to be in the footer. I'll get that readded too.
-
You will end up with crap like this in your database. Random hotel address..
On the more constructive side:
I have no idea what toggles I have clicked. some are on and some are off in this pictures, but i forgot which and there are no visible indicators. -
There is no data for Omaha, NE
-
@Dashrender Hi Dash there is data in Nebraska.. but unfortunately not many of these carriers there. We are working on getting all fiber maps from all carriers however some of chosen not to participate still. That is Century Link territory there and we don't have their data yet.
-
@Dashrender Also try zooming out to 10 miles. That will show you all available carriers if there are any. If there are any around you can reach out to them. But yes Nebraska/Omaha is more sparse than most.
-
@JaredBusch Jared that is a very good idea and will definitely be implemented. Thank you.
-
LOL if I change the radius to 10 Miles I see three markers in Omaha.
I'm on Cox.. so that's who I care about, for now.
-
Really appreciate all this feedback guys.
-
@Dashrender Yikes ok we are trying to get more of that data. Definitely this covers more of the major cities / metropolitan areas better at this time. Not saying Omaha isn't a great city though. It should be covered better..
-
If you guys feel like bug testing more feel free to register for an account don't care if you use fake data.. there's a cool quote and contract management system. Just click on a marker and click get quote to get started.

Maybe you should check with someone technical about some of the concerns expressed here before just re-spewing trite sales chops. Your company, so far, has brown list written all over it.

...also, your "contact" drop down menu (top right of page) gives a 404. The other contact link only has a blank form, no address or company info at all. Suspicious at best.
