Pacific Coast Business Times Names ISWest Big Kahuna Internet Service Provider
Posted on: Monday, 11 September 2006, 12:00 CDT
Pacific Coast Business Times has ranked Internet Specialties West (ISWest) as Conejo Valley's largest Internet Service Provider (ISP) for 2006.
A focus on customer service has been a driving force in the growth of ISWest, an award-winning ISP based in Agoura Hills that began as a two-person enterprise in 1996. Today, with 23 employees and $6 million in sales in 2005, ISWest provides business-class Internet services to thousands of customers in Southern California.
"ISWest is an ISP, which traditionally stands for Internet Service Provider. We feel this does not properly represent what we are to our customers. We are an ISP as in 'Internet' 'Support' 'People,' because that is what we do so well and what has become our reputation," says Drew J. Kaplan, ISWest CEO.
With triple-digit percentage increases in sales over the last five years alone, ISWest has grown into one of the largest ISPs in the Los Angeles area marketplace and one of the fastest-growing tech companies in North America. In 2003 and 2004, ISWest ranked on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500, which names the 500 fastest growing technology companies in North America. ISWest was also named four years in a row to Deloitte & Touche's prestigious Los Angeles Technology Fast 50 program, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in L.A.
The company's growth is also attributed to its acquisition of six smaller area ISPs: TSCO of Westlake Village, Channel Islands Internet in Ventura, NCPlus of Ventura, InfoSpec of Thousand Oaks, VCNet in Camarillo and Woodland Hills-based DCN Internet.
In addition to offering high speed access, such as T1 lines, bonded T1's, DS3's and other various high-speed Internet connections, ISWest offers server co-location, which allows for businesses to store their servers at ISWest's facilities, renting space, power and bandwidth at a much lower cost then keeping this equipment at their own place of business. Servicing mainly small- to mid-size businesses, ISWest's clients include many famous names across multiple industries.
