PRICING STRUCTURE

Pricing_

Our cloud connect pricing is identical across all cloud service providers. We charge based on the speed of the connection(s) and the distance from your location to each cloud onramp.

In addition to BSO’s fees, Alibaba’s own costs should be considered.

Circuit 

A monthly fee based on the speed of the connection. Alibaba have divided supported speeds into four set price brackets.

Outbound data cost

A set price per GB for all data leaving your Alibaba region over Express Connect. A benefit to Express Connect is that these fees are greatly reduced when compared to the egress costs associated with an internet connection to Alibaba. 

RECOGNISED PARTNER

BSO is an official Alibaba technology partner_

Through years of working alongside Alibaba, we have achieved and maintained our Advanced Technology Partner status. This is a testament to our commitment towards supporting customers with their Alibaba Express Connect needs.
