Meter provides internet infrastructure for businesses. Founded in 2015 to build enterprise-grade networks that are faster, more accessible, and more secure - our full-stack approach combines hardware, software, and operations so that any company can seamlessly run on a reliable and modern network. 

GoBolt is one of the fastest-growing third-party logistics (3PL) providers offering “pick and pack” and last-mile delivery services for more than 30,000 orders per week out of their 13 locations across North America, totaling more than 1.2 million square feet of warehouse space.

Since switching to Meter, Heindrik says they’ve had, “zero unscheduled downtime. Working with our previous IT company, we had regular outages. Every hour we’re down costs us and our merchants in lost sales, upset customers, and brand reputation. The time-to-fix was multiplied by how many people had to have their hands in the pie.” Compared to that experience, working with Meter was simply a matter of reporting their total square footage and location addresses and Meter took it from there.

In the end, for Heindrik and GoBolt, it came down to the simplicity of working with Meter. Says Heindrik, “Meter is stupid simple. They embody what you’ve always expected from the incumbents but they never quite delivered.”

Black Pine Circle School was able to eliminate the need for multiple vendors and reduce the workload on their staff, letting them focus on higher-leverage projects
