Our story

Our story: built on open-access fiber since 2011.

From a small Utah ISP undercutting the incumbents on UTOPIA Fiber to a multi-state operator on open-access networks across the West — SumoFiber’s story is steady growth without losing the local-shop bones.

  1. Before SumoFiber

    In 2003, founder David Burr started nexSIP, an early Asterisk-based VoIP shop in Utah, installing open-source phone systems years before the rest of the market caught up.

  2. SumoFiber launches

    In 2011, SumoFiber launched in Bountiful, Utah as an internet service provider on the UTOPIA Fiber open-access network — undercutting incumbents by nearly half and proving local fiber could be done right.

  3. Hosted voice + a service signature

    In 2012, SumoFiber added a hosted PBX platform and pioneered a managed-router install pattern that became the company’s service signature — the same approach behind today’s business fiber internet and managed Wi-Fi.

  4. Platform upgrade + Idaho

    In 2018, SumoFiber migrated to a new core platform with deeper redundancy and expanded north into Idaho Falls and Ammon — its first market outside Utah.

  5. Eight states and counting

    Today SumoFiber powers thousands of homes and businesses across Utah, Idaho, Montana, Colorado, California, Illinois, Wisconsin, and South Carolina. Same family-owned operator, longer reach — check availability in your city.

David Burr

Founder & President

David started nexSIP in 2003, installing Asterisk-based phone systems back when nobody else would touch open-source VoIP. He sold that customer base in 2009, founded SumoFiber LLC in 2011 on UTOPIA Fiber, and has led the company through every expansion since.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about SumoFiber.

  • Who founded SumoFiber?

    SumoFiber was founded in 2011 by David Burr, who still serves as President. The company launched in Bountiful, Utah as one of the first internet service providers to deliver fiber internet over the UTOPIA Fiber open-access network, and remains headquartered at 505 West 2600 South, Bountiful, UT 84010.

  • What states does SumoFiber serve?

    SumoFiber serves residential and business customers in eight states: Utah, Idaho, Montana, Colorado, California, Illinois, Wisconsin, and South Carolina. Coverage is delivered through UTOPIA Fiber and other open-access fiber networks, so availability depends on which open-access network has been built in your specific neighborhood.

  • What is SumoFiber's relationship to UTOPIA Fiber?

    SumoFiber is an independent internet service provider that operates on top of the UTOPIA Fiber open-access network. UTOPIA owns and maintains the physical fiber, and SumoFiber provides the internet service, customer support, and billing. SumoFiber has been a UTOPIA service provider since 2011.

  • What makes SumoFiber a local internet provider?

    SumoFiber is headquartered in Bountiful, Utah, with leadership and customer-care decisions made in-state. The company started in Utah in 2011 and has grown by expanding into adjacent open-access fiber markets — not by being acquired by an out-of-state corporate parent.
