Global internet routing you can count on, even when traffic spikes
If your business depends on the internet, the quality of your upstream provider matters. A lot. High latency, congested routes and slow fixes when things go wrong will not only affect traffic graphs; they’ll affect your customers and your reputation.
Poor internet performance creates a poor user experience. GTT IP Transit gives you direct access to a global Tier 1 backbone, built to keep your traffic flowing smoothly across regions and through peak demand. We provide the stable, highquality internet foundation your business needs to operate reliably.
When internet routing becomes a risk
Many teams switch to GTT after struggling with their previous providers. The issues are often frustratingly familiar:
- Noticeable lag when connecting to certain regions or cloud platforms
- Packet loss and slowdowns during your busiest periods
- Major outages that take far too long to resolve, with little communication
- Limited visibility into network performance, making it hard to troubleshoot
With GTT, your traffic stays on a globally peered backbone with fewer hops and more predictable paths. We take ownership of performance from end to end. That means you get a better, more reliable internet experience without the usual headaches.
With IP Transit, you can:
- Lower latency across regions for better application performance
- Maintain stable performance even during major traffic surges
- Get faster responses when issues appear, with clear ownership
- Benefit from commercial flexibility that fits your real-world usage
The GTT difference
A backbone built for performance
Not all internet backbones are created equal. Some providers rely heavily on other networks,
leading to more network hops and inconsistent performance. So your traffic takes a longer,
less reliable path to its destination.
Without GTT
- Your traffic travels over congested upstream routes
- Limited peering means more hops and higher latency
- You experience inconsistent performance, especially to distant regions
With GTT
- Your traffic stays on our Tier 1 global backbone
- Our extensive peering footprint provides direct, low-latency paths
- You get stable, predictable performance backed by a strong SLA
- 80% of customers’ traffic starts and ends on our IP backbone
Results
Your traffic behaves as it should. Applications feel more responsive, customers have a better experience and your network becomes a reliable asset.
Support that takes ownership
When there’s a network problem, the last thing you want is a provider who points fingers
at other carriers. A lack of clear ownership means slower resolution times and more
frustration for your team.
Without GTT
- Incident response is slow and often involves multiple parties
- It’s difficult to get clear answers or a firm timeline for a fix
- Your team wastes time chasing down updates and managing escalations
With GTT
- You have a single, accountable partner managing your internet service
- Our expert support team takes clear ownership of any issues
- We are committed to faster fault resolution and proactive communication
Results
Problems solved faster, and your teams are freed from the burden of chasing down network issues and to focus on more important work.
