Symmetry refers to whether your download speed and upload speed are close to identical. Many providers offer a decent download speed, for example 60 Mbps, but fail to mention the upload speed, which can be just as important for your business. So while 60/4 Mbps may sound good, if you don’t take into consideration the many ways in which you depend on fast upload speed, you may be doing yourself a disservice.
Tools like DropBox, Adobe Online, cloud-based phone systems and Salesforce require abundant upload speed, and they quickly overwhelm the 4 -7 Mbps rates found with many providers. That’s why the high symmetric speeds available by Digital West are important – they keep your business humming.
