I came across Nettica after searching for a company who provides Geographic load balancing. I will say that I’m pretty happy with their service. Everything seems to be working the way I want it. I will say however, their support isn’t the best. If you need help on a weekend, forget about it. Also, be prepared to sign at least a 1 year agreement.
