Our take
Comcast Business is where you land when AT&T Fiber isn't an option, which, for plenty of SMB neighborhoods, is still the situation. The 24-month contracts are the sharpest edge; read the ETF language carefully. For uploads-heavy businesses (video production, backup, hosted services), look at the Extra tier or push harder for fiber.
