Flexential — hybrid IT and DR across the US markets the hyperscalers overlook.

Flexential's FlexAnywhere platform connects roughly 40 US data centers with colocation, hybrid cloud, disaster recovery, and interconnection in one fabric. Its strength is the secondary and edge US markets — the places enterprises need presence but global operators don't prioritize. For mid-market and up running hybrid IT with real DR requirements, Flexential is built for exactly that shape.

What Flexential actually does.

Flexential runs around 40 US data centers tied together by FlexAnywhere — its platform for connecting colocation, hybrid cloud, DR, and interconnection. Where it earns its place is geography: deep presence in secondary and edge markets where enterprises need low-latency local footprint. The result is a single operator for hybrid IT and disaster recovery without forcing everything into a handful of tier-1 metros.

Capabilities · A short list

Colocation Space across ~40 US sites with strong coverage in secondary and edge markets.
Hybrid cloud Managed and connected cloud that operates alongside colocation under the FlexAnywhere platform.
Disaster recovery DR and continuity services for organizations with real recovery-time obligations.
Interconnection Connectivity between sites, clouds, and partners across the FlexAnywhere fabric.
Edge / secondary market reach Presence in markets larger operators skip — useful for latency and local-data requirements.

Who this fits.

Best Fit

Mid-market and up running hybrid IT and DR

Organizations that need colocation, hybrid cloud, and disaster recovery as one platform, especially across secondary and edge US markets.

Strong Fit

Enterprises needing presence in non-tier-1 markets

If latency or local-data needs put you in markets the global operators don't prioritize, Flexential's footprint is the value.

Mixed Fit

Regulated buyers wanting a tighter compliance-first colo

If your lead requirement is HIPAA/PCI/SOC 2 with managed DR sized for mid-market, TierPoint may be a closer match. Worth comparing.

Less Likely

Buyers needing the densest direct cloud on-ramps

If maximum interconnection and native cloud on-ramp density is the priority, CoreSite is the sharper tool.
