From the founder

Yes. Data center providers pay us a referral fee when a placement is made, using the same commission budget they would allocate to an in-house salesperson. Your price is not marked up compared to going direct. In many cases, buyers secure better pricing because we have established provider relationships and visibility into current market quotes.

We begin with your actual requirements, including location, power (kW), rack count, cooling type, compliance needs, and preferred contract term. We then match those requirements against our network, verifying both available power and available rack space. Our experience allows us to identify providers that are a realistic fit for your deployment rather than wasting your time with facilities that cannot accommodate your needs.

QuoteColo has been operating since 2004. Founder Bob Spiegel’s background at BBN Planet, XO Communications, and Akamai is publicly verifiable. Our Google reviews reflect real customer placements and a strong reputation built over two decades. If you’d prefer to speak with someone before submitting your requirements, simply call us at (888) 400-5732.

Confidential searches are common. Many AI teams and enterprise buyers prefer not to disclose their company name, website, or funding details during the initial provider outreach. We know which providers will evaluate technical requirements first without requiring your identity. If confidentiality is important, simply mention it when submitting your requirements.

No. Email is our primary communication channel, and Bob typically responds within a few hours. If you’d prefer a phone call, simply request one and we’ll schedule it. Your contact information is never distributed to multiple provider sales teams at the same time.

You certainly can, especially if you already know the facilities that fit your deployment. However, most providers do not publish accurate pricing, many have minimum deployment requirements that aren’t disclosed until late in the sales process, and many regional facilities with the best pricing and available capacity don’t appear prominently in search results. What can take weeks of outreach on your own can often be narrowed to qualified options within hours through our network.

Yes. GPU and AI deployments now make up the majority of our work. Many Tier 1 operators require 100 kW minimum commits and 36-month contract terms, making them impractical for smaller deployments. We connect buyers with regional and mid-tier facilities that support 1–5 racks, 10–60 kW deployments, modern cooling technologies—including containment, rear-door heat exchangers (RDHx), and direct-to-chip liquid cooling—and straightforward pricing without lengthy qualification processes.
