About Evaltis Limited
Evaltis was established in September 2000 in London, England to assess and rate services in the telecom industry. Evaltis' Colocation and Hosting Rating Reports, (from which the above Key Facility Data was taken), provide a neutral and independent assessment of colocation and hosting sites worldwide, helping prospective customers in their choice of facility and provider.

In the Rating Report, a facility is rated in 22 categories against industry averages, and an overall rating out of 5 gives a measure of the overall quality and reliability of the services provided at a facility.

Evaltis reports are available for individual sites, or sets can be bought for all rated facilities within a region.
