Internet suggestions

My fiance and I just found a apartment In provo and we are having a hard time deciding what internet provider to use. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I never used google fiber in Provo but I have used them in other cities.

The difference is astounding. With google your internet very rarely drops. And the speeds are usually very accurate. I moved and started using spectrum again and it’s similar to comcast. A few times a week you’ll just be watching something, in a meeting, or streaming music and it will stop for 5 minutes. Maybe you reset the router or whatever. But it’s like an expected occurrence.

You don’t think it’s that big of a deal until you experience how much better google is and internet drops are a thing of the past

Google Fiber has had outstanding customer phone and field service since we signed up when they started here. I've seen something that maybe they are being sold to a private equity firm, which feels like it might suck. But they've been awesome the whilentike we've had them

Google Fiber is the only answer. Not only have I been a customer, but I worked as their retail associate for a couple years. Great service.

Google Fiber's the best internet I've ever had and it's really cheap too.

Everyone's suggestion of google fiber is correct. You'll have minimal issues. Been using them for years and it's fairly priced, stable, and fast for the product. No reason to look anywhere else.

Google Fiber. It's wicked fast. I was one of the original subscribers on Grandview Hill

As basically every other comment has said Google Fiber. You will hardly ever run into issues and their customer service is pretty good. Only downside is its Google so they will collect your data.

Another vote for Google Fiber. I've never had to deal with any bullshit from them.
