Why us—

From global enterprises to the companies powering cloud, content and connectivity, requirements differ by design. What doesn’t change is what success looks like: stable performance, rapid change without disruption, and a partner that takes ownership from order to operation.

Arelion brings a global network grown with intent – and experienced teams who stay close, take ownership, communicate clearly, and deliver “right-first-time” outcomes.

Why customers choose Arelion – and stay with us

Global, organically grown backbone
Built and expanded over decades, not stitched together. That means cleaner architecture, consistent performance, and reach you can depend on.
Industry-leading service delivery
We take ownership from order to operation, with clear communication and experienced teams that turn up services quickly - and keep them working as designed.
An effortless customer experience
The calm confidence of a partner who’s easy to do business with: responsive support, accountable experts, and a culture built around long-term trust.

    Why customers trust us

    Trust is not a tagline. It is earned in the moments that matter - the first delivery milestone, the first issue raised, and every change that has to happen without disruption. It takes time to build, and commitment to maintain. Here are the key reasons customers trust us for their core connectivity requirements.

    • Customer satisfaction excellence, measured: Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 79 (2025).
    • Organic growth since 1993: a backbone built with intent - designed to scale, and easier to operate consistently, and known across the industry as AS1299.
    • Global scale they can use: ~80,000 km of fiber across Europe, North America and Asia, serving customers in 129 countries.
    • Delivery that earns belief: one accountable service delivery team from order to operation, supported by experts who stay close until everything works - and keeps working.
