TekSavvy Solutions Inc. is a Canadian residential, business, and wholesale telecommunications company based in Chatham, Ontario. In most of the country, it is a wholesale-network-access-based service provider and voice reseller, connecting its service to existing last mile networks from telecom carriers Bell Canada (including Bell Aliant) and Telus Communications, and cable carriers Rogers Communications, Cogeco Cable, Shaw and Videotron. However, in parts of rural southwestern Ontario, the service is provided over TekSavvy's own fixed wireless network (branded as "Sky Fi").
TekSavvy Solutions Inc. was founded in January 1998. The company ranked 27th in 2008, 33rd in 2009, 44th in 2010, and 33rd 2011 on the list of fastest-growing companies in Canada on Canadian Business Magazine's Profit 100 list. By 2011, it had been rated as the number one ISP in Canada by the users of DSLreports.com for five years. In 2012, it was 12th on the Branham 300 Top 20 Movers & Shakers list.
While TekSavvy operates primarily by connecting its service to network access ("last mile" infrastructure) from Bell, Rogers, Cogeco, Shaw, Telus and Vidéotron, the service differs in terms of pricing and features according to the network access platform to which it is connected. All cable and DSL services include unlimited uploads at all times and unlimited downloads from 2 to 8 AM.
Business Internet is also available at a higher cost than its residential counterpart, and Web hosting services are available in most service areas.
