OzarksGo Fiber
April 27, 2025 Derrick W
OzarksGo Fiber
April 10, 2025 My current Internet service provider is OzarksGo, a local spin-off from the Electric utility provider Ozarks Electric. I have uses them for high speed fiber service for the last three years. The pricing is fair, definitely cheaper than Cox or AT&T. I also use them for my TV service but just pay for the local basics and do most of my TV watching via streaming services. At any given time the household will have 2-3 devices streaming or using the Internet for work, school, or leisure and the service has rarely faulted.

January 18, 2025 I have been with Ozarks for about a year now and am VERY pleased with their service. They make changing service levels easy, speeds are consistently fast, and I have experienced nearly no downtime. Set up was very easy and timely. Pricing is very fair and transparent as well.
