HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE: "When we were looking for colocation facilities, we were actually leaning towards avoiding the hotbed of competition in London. From the outset I found Adam to be both knowledgeable about his product & easy to talk to. He answered all my questions without having to research the answers, and without leaving me with the feeling that he must field the same questions on a daily basis. After over a month of negotiations, I was left with no doubt that Telecity was the only facility that could realistically house our servers, and this was due in a large part to Adam's superiority in his role over his competitors. I thoroughly trust his advice and would have no hesitation in recommending his service in the future."
COSTAR COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE: "I worked with Adam when sourcing a data centre partner to manage what had been an on-premises data centre up until that point. He proved to be very knowledgeable in the area of data centre services and gave me and my management team all of the assurance we needed that this was the right partnership for us. Adam is very personable, very professional, clear and articulate. I never felt pressured to buy from him - rather, we discussed at length exactly what our requirements were and how Adam's company could complement and enhance our business operations. We benefitted from migrating our on-premises facilities under Adam's guidance. I would recommend Adam without question."
THE NATIONAL LOTTERY: "If you have ever met Adam you will know what a professional gentleman he is. I have had contact with him on a number of occasions and he has always presented and behaved in a manner which is a credit to him & his employers. It is easy to discuss business matters with him openly and maturely. He has a wealth of knowledge and is keen to ensure that everyone working with him is comfortable with the topic under discussion. His personable manner, and sensible and uncomplicated approach to conducting business, has given rise to me making this public recommendation as an indication to others of his professional etiquette and integrity."
CBRE: "Adam was a big help when I first entered the data center space. He gave me a lot of his time and has made a real effort ever since. His work with clients was always diligent and enthusiastic when requests came his way. He's always been knowledgable, attentive, and genuine in business engagements. His human qualities come so naturally - he cares about what he does and the people around him."
AMAZON WEB SERVICES: "I have had the pleasure of working closely with Adam and it has been an absolute highlight. As a Customer Success Manager, he consistently goes above and beyond to make sure customers feel heard, supported, and valued. Adam has an exceptional ability to turn complex challenges into clear, manageable solutions—and he does it all with positivity and professionalism. What sets Adam apart is his proactive approach—he doesn’t just resolve issues; he prevents them. His communication is always clear, timely, and solution-oriented, which has significantly strengthened our customer relationship. Adam’s commitment to delivering an outstanding experience is evident in everything he does. I’m grateful to have worked with him and couldn’t recommend him more highly."
"I can't recommend Adam enough! He is one of the best commercial guys I have ever worked with in the data centre industry and has closed & managed a host of major contracts. He also happens to be one of the nicest guys in the industry too!"
