If the high cost-per-megabit price pint of a T1 connection is more of an expense than losing internet connectivity occasionally, then you go with the cheaper, faster alternative. These are calculated business risks that must be analyzed and accepted. Some places might even survive for a day or two, or might be able to putter alone with a backup pay-as-you-go wireless connection. Quite a few businesses use the internet as a convenience, but it's not going to kill them if they lose internet service for an hour or so overnight when they're closed. Who in their right mind would subscribe to a service for their business with no SLA?! People with common sense, whose internet connectivity isn't required to be 24/7/365 to survive.
#COMCAST BUSINESS GUARANTEED INTERNET UPTIME PLUS#
Or you can get a really fast connection for far less money, plus bells and whistles, that isn't explicitly guaranteed but will usually work out just fine. You can either pay through the nose to get a slow connection that is guaranteed to be there. The old adage holds true: you get what you pay for. One things for sure though: even at 50% uptime, you'll be able to push more data through a Comcast business class pipe than an AT&T T1. They might get it or something close to it, or something not so close but still acceptable. The sacrifice to this huge speed boost is, there's no guarantee a business will get 99.999% uptime with it. And even their slowest plan is still 8 times faster and costs a tenth the price of an AT&T T1 line.

Whereas with Comcast, their most expensive plan costs about half as much an yet is 67 times faster. Why is this?It might have something to do with the fact that with an AT&T T1, you're paying at minimum $653.80 per month (if you commit to a three year contract) for 1.5Mbps speed: Whereas a T1 from at&t would offer an SLA.

I am doing my research on their business class service, and am seeing that they do not offer an SLA.
