Hear From Our Clients

Here's what some of the forward-thinking businesses we host have to say about our services.

  • Layer8 have been an exceptional partner for our move off-premises into colocation. It couldn't have been smoother!

    Emily Carter

  • Had our servers hosted down at Layer8 for 6 months now and we're yet to have any downtime. What a breath of fresh air after our old setup!

    James Richardson

  • Talk about stress-free, I had an email from the Layer8 team to tell me they'd seen something and fixed it before I'd even noticed! Unbelievable service.

    Sophie Williams

  • If these guys had been around we'd have made the move off-site much sooner. Nothing else of this calibre around here.

    Daniel Foster

  • It's so handy to have a dedicated portal to monitor my servers remotely. One of those things I didn't even know I needed until I had it.

    Charlotte Harris

  • Very classy establishment and the staff are on it. Sleeping much better knowing my kit's in good hands.
