References appear to consist of authorless press releases or mutual back-patting from various other Internet companies. No evidence of non-trivial coverage in multiple reliable INDEPENDENT published secondary sources. Suspect page creator of also likely having an undisclosed financial COI, given the sources cited here and the account's very brief set of contributions (8 edits total over 1 year).

 * Weak delete. (changed from weak keep) The ITweb sources are all press releases. But I dunno, MyBroadband seems to be a reputable IT news site, and there are a number of sources from there, many from 'staff writers' but some from named staff, they also seem to have won a number of industry awards . The frost and sullivan award source seems independent, but it is a primary source, not a secondary source. EDIT: I am convinced. &Alpha; Guy into Books &trade;  points out that MyBroadband is semi-affiliated with the subject, so there isn't anything left to demonstrate notability. —  InsertCleverPhraseHere (or here)  12:54, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Host Elsewhere perhaps this company could host its own profile? it seems to fail WP:CORPDEPTH, especially as this article is entirely sourced from MyBroadband, which is owned by the same holding structure that owns Hetzner. (therefore is a primary source). &Alpha; Guy into Books &trade;  &sect; ( Message ) -
 * (I think "host elsewhere" means "delete" in this context— I've never seen that one before and it isn't listed at WP:AFDFORMAT yet, but am open to other interpretations(?). KDS4444 (talk) 08:06, 18 September 2017 (UTC))
 * Delete Press releases and sources that fail WP:CORPDEPTH do not indicate notability.--SamHolt6 (talk) 01:27, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
