Time Warner Telecom Delivers Multi-State IP VPN, Data and Voice Solutions to Lewis and Roca LLP

Posted on: Thursday, 9 August 2007, 15:02 CDT

PHOENIX, Aug. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Time Warner Telecom Inc. , a leading provider of managed voice and data networking solutions for businesses, today announced the successful installation of a 7-site IP VPN, a 100 Mbps Ethernet connection and voice services to Lewis and Roca LLP of Phoenix. Lewis and Roca is a full service corporate law firm based in Phoenix serving local, regional and national clients from locations in Arizona, New Mexico and Nevada.

"We have more than five hundred employees in six locations where it is vital that they communicate with each other as well as have secure access to our data center," said Gary Peet, chief information officer of Lewis and Roca. "We were disappointed with our previous provider and after assessing alternative communications providers, selected Time Warner Telecom because we knew they could deliver what they promised, provide us good customer service and help us reduce our total communications expense. For the same dollars we were spending for T1s, we now have much more bandwidth and the capability to move more data."

Lewis and Roca also decided to fortify their infrastructure by deploying a remote business continuity and disaster recovery (BC/DR) capability at a secure data center. Time Warner Telecom provided a 100 Mbps Ethernet connection to support this initiative. Now, in the event any single location experiences network downtime, all remaining locations will maintain unfettered access to the network or the data center. Additionally, the company also contracted with Time Warner Telecom to provide local and long distance voice services to five of its company locations.

"During the installation process, we realized that the team from Time Warner Telecom really did care if we were successful," added Peet. "We worked through issues that arose during the installation and today we have a network that easily meets the needs of our firm. What's even more valuable to us is that we now have the ability deploy technologies and do things that we had not been able to do before. For example, if we need to increase bandwidth in a single location based on a specific need we can easily do that."

"Businesses needing to reach multiple locations, both locally and across the country, realize significant performance improvement and cost savings with our IP VPN solutions," said Ron Martin, vice president and general manager for Time Warner Telecom in Phoenix. "Lewis and Roca needed to extend their network across three states, and with our solutions and network reach, we were able to help them realize their goals and improve their network. We are one of the few providers that can deliver specialized communications solutions that genuinely help businesses streamline their communications networks and reduce overall all costs to the business."
