Today, Zayo’s Long Haul network connects its deep metro footprints across the nation in markets such as Seattle, Denver, Las Vegas, Chicago, New York and Minneapolis.

ATLANTIC-ACM’s survey factors in elements such as brand, sale representatives, provisioning, network performance and customer service in the assessment by participating carriers.
