“BT Delivers Strong Global Service But Faces Challenges in Speed and Innovation”

5.0
Oct 14, 2025
BT has been our supplier for the MPLS infrastructure for a long time, and during our SD-WAN migration they have supported us quite well. BT as a company is reliable, trusted, and offers strong SLAs on their services. We are still in the middle of our SD-WAN migration project and we can trust BT to keep providing help and assistance. Above all, we value the account team that's been servicing us from Madrid with a more local approach. They have been able to restore the relationship in a time when this was thought to be impossible.

“BT's Service Level Lags Behind Compared to Past Years”

3.0
Jun 26, 2024
I don't think BT is any better or worse than other vendors in the space. But in general, I do find their service level and delivery falling behind and getting worse than 5 years ago.

Relatively consistent account team. They do well in their core business areas A single point of contact for most of our services.

Like

BT product & service comes with customizable options in service

Dislike

Agility in providing quotes and presenting offers. Delays in deliveries when relying on last-mile suppliers. There is a bit of a delay in the innovation fields such as AI and automation tools.

Dislike

They are slow to deliver. A lot of times they over promise and under deliver. Because we have been with them for so long, I feel they are complacent.

Dislike

BT should start proactively monitor the services provided by them

    Global Network Coverage Offers High Reliability and Minimal Downtime for Customers

    5.0
    Sep 22, 2025
    The global network of BT has coverage in everywhere that our customers are located. This makes it very easy to build solutions for them and it is backed up by very high SLA. We hardly experienced any downtime I believe it is due to the fact that BT has a great resilliency in their global network.
