Veracity Networks today announced the finalized merger of Broadweave Networks and Veracity Communications, creating the premier, local provider of telecommunications services. This merger allows Veracity Networks to offer an expanded array of offerings to its more than 20,000 Utah customers. These customers will benefit from superior customer service and advanced technology platforms--including a powerful fiber-optic network--to deliver optimal Internet, phone and video capabilities.
"We are excited about the new capabilities we can now offer our customers--both in terms of products and customer care," said Drew Peterson, CEO of Veracity Networks. "Combining our two companies will provide customers with the highest Internet speeds and the best in customer service. Because we understand local issues and needs, Veracity Networks is far more responsive than any national provider."
Along with the completion of the regulatory and shareholder approvals, the company announced the finalization of employee, network and systems integration. "The speed of this accomplishment shows the extraordinary commitment, experience and knowledge of our employees," Peterson said. "It's exciting to see the momentum and synergies of the combined companies, demonstrated by our largest sales month ever."
As a result, customers have already benefited from the outcome of this merger.
"We have already experienced great results with Veracity Networks," said Jason Young, co-owner of Be Young Essential Oils. "The setup and install was so fast and seamless, there was no comparison to our previous provider. We look forward to building our business with continued support from Veracity Networks."
Veracity Networks is also pleased to announce significant upgrades to the company's fiber optic network in Provo. Over the next four months the network will be upgraded to add new data features, additional redundancy and advanced network integration--allowing greater flexibility, stability and scalability. The increase in throughput will also enable an increased number of high definition video channels for video customers.
