Overview

Our Managed Web Server packages offer turnkey, fixed cost solutions for fast and simple deployment of your web sites. We manage all the infrastructure required to power your sites and provide you with a full Linux based virtual environment to deploy your application in.

We’ll assist you with installing and configuring any software you require to run your application. Our involvement doesn’t stop once everything is configured and running smoothly. We’ll provide proactive monitoring to ensure application availability, and respond automatically to any alerts we receive to ensure your application continues to operate at peak performance.

Even if you're a novice to server administration or have only worked with GUI tools, you will find our Managed Web Server easy to administer. The web based control panel Webmin is included or, if you prefer, you may access the server as root via SSH.

Choose to host multiple clients on one Web Server or offer your clients the ultimate security and performance only a dedicated Managed Web Server provides.
