Our Core Purpose

We make our clients heroes by designing, building, and operating technology foundations that power growth and innovation.

What we bring to the table

Deep regional roots and full-stack capabilities to handle complexity at enterprise scale.

Enterprise scale with real flexibility.

Most organizations outgrow their technology partners before they outgrow their technology. CBTS is built to scale with you — with the breadth of capability and depth of resources to handle complexity at any size, without the rigidity that usually comes with it.

Deep expertise, reliably delivered.

Most AI programs don’t fail because of the technology. They fail because the foundation wasn’t ready. CBTS Forge AI is our end-to-end approach to finding your breakpoints — and building through them.

Partnership that goes the distance.

Technology needs change. Business priorities shift. The partners who serve you best are the ones still at the table when they do. CBTS is built for the long term —invested in your outcomes, not just your contracts.

Our History

Creating strong foundations for 30+ years

CBTS was founded in 1994 as a technology arm of Cincinnati Bell. Our early focus on communications infrastructure gave us more than a decade’s head start in managing complex, enterprise-scale networks. Over the years, we expanded our capabilities, deepened our technical bench, and grew our reach. The acquisition of OnX extended our footprint into Canada. Investments in software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) and network as a service (NaaS) put us at the front edge of infrastructure modernization.

Today, a growing practice in AI, cloud, and application development reflects where we’ve been headed all along — helping organizations build technology foundations that are ready for whatever comes next.
