What do you like best about Lumen Advanced Managed Services?

Billing is easy to understand. Customer service is easy to reach and very helpful. Services are very clear and reliable. Easy to create and access customer portal. Can download invoices from customer portal. Can also make changes and contact customer service from customer portal. Have access to all past invoices up to 2 years. Can have multiple service locations on one account for easy billing payments (helpful for large corporations.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumen Advanced Managed Services?

Billing dates do not always line up with the previous month. 20 days billing cycle. If you have multiple accounts, if your account information is not specified or lost by vendor, there will possibly be a number of misapplied payment, which can be a real headache to resolve. And misapplied payments can result in account possibly being suspended if not noticed and handled in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great product! make sure that, when paying, please provide all account information. If not, your company could possibly end up with misapplied payments if you have multiple account with this company.

What do you like best about Lumen Advanced Managed Services?

The security surrounding the facility entrance was spectacular and gave you the sense that you and your data would be well protected when inside the facility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumen Advanced Managed Services?

The lack of an external security fence made me very uneasy about the facility. Not to mention being right off a main road with easy access to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lumen Advanced Managed Services:

They were stellar before, now they have a bit of work to do to get back up to par. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lumen Advanced Managed Services solving and how is that benefiting you?

We migrated from a facility of similar type in chicago. It was and is still a gigantic leap from the site in chicago where we previously hosted systems. The benefit so far was providing a centralized location that many customers valued over the original location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some other services that provide a wider range of products within the hosted environment, while I personally do not use some of these services I could certainly understand end users need and desire of these products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If reliability and support are important to your hosting needs, it's most certainly a solution to consider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
