JMF Solutions

What JMF Solutions does

JMF Solutions, Inc. is a privately held telecommunications and managed services provider headquartered in Daphne, Alabama, founded in 2005. The company operates its own multi-state fiber-optic network spanning Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, with 386+ datacenter connections, 500+ BGP peers, 30+ carrier network-to-network interfaces, and 20+ VoIP carrier peering relationships. It serves mid-market, enterprise, and wholesale/carrier clients through a portfolio that includes JMF Fiber (business internet up to 10GB), JMF Cloud (enterprise cloud with virtual routers/servers and bandwidth from 1GB to 100GB), JMF Voice/Total Voice (Hosted PBX, SIP Trunking, Unified Communications for 10 to 10,000 seats), and JMF Total Care — a bundled managed services offering combining PaaS, IaaS, and SaaS capabilities. The technology stack includes direct connectivity to AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and IBM Cloud, plus an open-source backbone platform branded ixp.farm that leverages rural hospitals and universities as network nodes.

The company monetizes primarily through recurring monthly subscriptions: fiber internet tiers priced at $750/month (1GB), $1,200/month (2GB), and $1,750/month (10GB), with cloud and voice subscriptions scaled by bandwidth or seat count. Its go-to-market blends direct enterprise field sales for mid-market and enterprise accounts with a wholesale partner program serving carriers, ISPs, and system integrators who resell JMF's fiber, cloud, and voice services. The company also operates a retail sub-brand, WaveFly, and secured a $6.3 million ADECA grant in February 2024 for middle-mile broadband expansion covering 1,169 miles and 24 anchor institutions in Alabama. Recognition includes six consecutive years on the Inc. 5000 list (ranked #2593 in 2016) and reaching as high as #7 on the CRN Fast Growth 150.
