Points of view
Where the industry is heading, and what it takes to deliver connectivity you can see and prove. Perspectives from the XVOLV team, published alongside our LinkedIn thought pieces.
Preparedness, not prediction
Why the lessons retailers are learning about pricing pressure are just as relevant to the connectivity industry.
Measuring Badly Is Worse Than Not Measuring
Most verdicts on a network are feelings. The ones that come from a bad measurement are worse, because they feel like facts.
Green Dashboards, Broken Promises
The managed-services model was built on uptime. Uptime is no longer the thing being bought.
What Tony Stark Understood
The language we are settling on for AI is quietly redefining the people who use it. "Human in the loop" gets it backwards.
Beyond the Circuit
Where the next margin in wholesale connectivity is going.
This budget season, fund the proof
At budget time, connectivity gets treated as a line to trim. The line actually worth funding is the one that tells you whether the money is working.
Buying capability isn't the same as buying an outcome.
The industry sells circuits, boxes and tools. What you needed was a site that works.
Connectivity is an operating problem, not a procurement line.
Treat the network as a line item and every outage becomes somebody else's problem.
Single accountability isn't a clause, it's whether someone can reach the site.
A contract can name who is responsible. It cannot put an engineer on the ground.
The map is not the network.
Your monitoring shows you a model. The people using the network live somewhere else.
