Green Flags in Colocation Host Selection

[ScrumMeeting]

Choosing where to stash your data isn't just about features—it's about finding a partner that fits. What are some green flags you guys look out for when choosing a CoLo host? I thought of a couple namely:

1. Quick to handle emergencies
2. Top Knotch Levels of Security
3. Good Scalability

Please feel free to add some more

• High levels of redundancy to prevent data loss

• Flexibility in terms of contract terms and customization options

You mentioned emergencies, security, and scalability — all solid green flags. I’d also add: clear and honest communication, transparent pricing (no surprise fees), and tech support that actually knows what they’re talking about. Bonus points if they make upgrades or maintenance sound effortless.
