What do you like best about Connectbase?

Connectbase provides a visual depiction of our fiber network, as well as identifying on-net and near-net buildings.

Connectbase has the formats for loading our on-net and near-net buildings into other companies databases.

I turn up Connectbase every day to have available to view locations my team is working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Connectbase?

Does not provide a "street-view" like Google Earth does.

Would like Connectbase integrated with Salesforce for greater ease of use, and including verified on-net and near-net locations in sales opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Connectbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

Identifying near-net buildings in addition to on-net buildings. Resulting activity is positive sales opportunities that quickly turn into orders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Connectbase?

The Connectbase services facilitates GDS to automate our circuit quoting process. With Connectbase, we have a nearly single pane of glass to view all relevant vendor availability. This is to inclued the ability to see which vendors may be in an area where GDS does not yet have a relationship with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Connectbase?

We do sometimes have instances of not always getting the expected response for certain queried locations. There is not always a way to know that a potential vendor did not get offered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Connectbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

We no longer have to search to find what providers are servicing particular locations and also have the ability to have a one stop shop to get pricing for all potential vendors. Before Connectbase we had to determine the vendors servicing a location and go to them individually to obtain pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Connectbase?

You have done a great job getting a large group of my peers into your ecosystem which makes my job easier as I have many of the people I talk to all in the same place. I like it that you take care of our onnet building list as that fell on me before we became users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Connectbase?

Your system is still wonky. I have flat files sent to Windstream who is not a Connect Base user and they consistently find errors from file to file. I am almost tempted to have them taken off the list. But this last trouble ticket I noticed that a steady stream of communication went back and forth trying to fix the issue.

What do you like best about Connectbase?

Using Connectbase, I'm able to upload spreadsheets of addresses to find the on-net and near-net providers, as well as the LEC serving that area. I find this to be a very helpful tool as I source many carriers to provide wireless backhaul for my client. Connectbase makes my job easier and that's what I love about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Connectbase?

I'm still learning the program, but I do find that some of the functions are not very intuitive and I have to use a lot of trial and error in order to utilitize many of the functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Connectbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

Connectbase helps me to find carriers across the country to provide wireless backhaul quotes. Using the List function, I am able to sort through lists and find carriers in a very short time. Connectbase saves me time and phone calls/emails to find the right carrier for my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Connectbase?

The best part of Connectbase is that you can request a quote in one area as long as you have the vendors API's. Without the API's Connectbase would be challenging to work in and a last resort for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Connectbase?

Discrepancies in pricing and last mile vendor. On a couple of occasions, I have generated a quote that did not have the last mile vendor or had a different price than what the vendor provided via email. This needs to be fixed to give the user a great user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Connectbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

Better user interface. This helps the user navigate more freely and have a better overall experience navigating all the different options and tabs. I have not used Connectbase as much as I would like. But I'm trying to get better t using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
