When it comes to business internet, your connection isn’t just a utility—it’s the backbone of your productivity, customer experience, and ability to grow. At Ezee Fiber, we know that not every business has the same needs, which is why we offer both Dedicated Fiber and Shared Fiber Business Internet to help you stay connected on your terms.

Here’s how the two compare—and how to decide what’s best for your business.

What’s the Difference?

  • Dedicated Fiber (Dedicated Internet Access or DIA) provides a private, uncontended internet connection with consistent performance and symmetrical upload/download speeds. It’s designed for enterprise-level businesses.
  • Shared Fiber Business Internet delivers high-speed internet over a shared network, making it a more cost-effective option for small and midsize businesses (SMBs). It’s perfect for everyday operations like email, cloud access, and team communication.

Both are fast, secure, and business-ready—just optimized for different priorities.

Performance and Reliability

Ezee Fiber’s Dedicated Internet Access offers:

  • Symmetrical speeds up to 400 Gbps for fast uploads and downloads.
  • Low latency that supports real-time collaboration tools like Zoom and Teams.
  • SLA-backed 99.9% uptime for mission-critical applications and peace of mind.

Ezee Fiber’s Shared Fiber Business Internet is built with reliability in mind, too:

  • High-speed download options for day-to-day business tasks, up to 8 Gbps.
  • Consistent service quality for general internet use, cloud apps, and file sharing.
  • Great fit for retail locations, professional offices, and local teams.

While Dedicated Fiber offers advantages for performance-intensive environments, Shared Fiber Business Internet meets the needs of many small and medium-sized businesses.

Security and Peace of Mind

Both services are protected by Ezee Fiber’s robust infrastructure:

  • Dedicated Fiber gives you a private, direct connection—ideal for organizations with higher compliance or control requirements.
  • Shared Fiber Business Internet still supports secure operations with VPNs, firewalls, and encrypted services, ensuring a safe online experience for day-to-day business activity.

Cost Considerations

  • Dedicated Fiber is a premium enterprise-grade service ideal for businesses with heavy data needs that run large-scale operations – backed by an SLAof 99.9% uptime.
  • Shared Fiber Business Internet is a smart, budget-friendly option for companies looking to get high-speed internet without overextending their resources.

We work with you to find the right fit—no unnecessary upsells, just the connection your business actually needs.

Scalability and Growth

  • With Dedicated Fiber, upgrading your bandwidth is seamless—no switchovers, no headaches.
  • Our Shared Fiber Business Internet plans offer flexible speed tiers so you can scale as your business grows.

Whether you’re preparing for rapid expansion or steady, long-term growth, Ezee Fiber has an option to support your journey.
