FORT WORTH -- (June 28, 2004) -- Again leading the industry, C I Host has expanded the minimum amount of bandwidth it allots to its managed dedicated server customers – its sixth expansion of bandwidth capability in less than six months. The latest increase takes the minimum bandwidth to 3000 GB from 1200 GB. The latest bandwidth move bypasses all web hosting company’s bandwidth allotments by a factor of 2.
In addition, C I Host is continuing its “Crazy Deals” offers, including dedicated server prices starting at $29 – an incredible savings since the average server is $199 – and a price that gives more value for the dollar, even within the sub-$99 server market.
"We believe in putting as many horses under a computer cover as possible so our clients can come out of the turn strong and beat the competition to the finish line in every business situation they encounter," said Christopher Faulkner, CEO of C I Host. “It’s our job to stay on top of what customers need to succeed.”
C I Host is committed to making sure that all of its 210,000 customers have the tools they need to become leaders in their fields, whether it is engineering, health care, radio broadcasting or selling costumes for Halloween and birthday parties.
All of C I Host’s dedicated servers are managed, for example, not self-managed like those of some competitors. Managed Web hosting removes the need for companies to create and maintain expensive IT departments.
“We will configure, install, and maintain the necessary servers, firewalls, and other infrastructure for your Web site,” Faulkner said. “This includes the operating system and any backend database and server support required. We connect your server to our redundant DS-3, OC-3 and OC-12 Internet connections and monitor it 24 hours a day, 7 days week. If it needs re-booting, we do it. If it needs upgrading, we do it. We take on the full responsibility for maintaining your infrastructure.”
All C I Host dedicated servers come with a guarantee of a 30 minute maximum wait for replacement parts. Each server has more than 100 software packages as compared to competitors who only offer bare bones operating systems.
Increasing the amount of bandwidth for dedicated servers is just the latest in a long line of improvements that C I Host has made to help its customers. Its redundant network has a structure designed to prevent hacker and denial of service attacks. Its reseller program is among the most robust and transparent in the industry. And its MonsterControlsD has a point-and-click interface that makes Web site administration child’s play.
"We're not only staying ahead of the curve, we’re making the curve for others to try to beat," Faulkner said. "Every decision we make is based on the ever-changing needs of our customers."
C I Host continues to add over 1200 new managed dedicated servers per month to its three data centers in Dallas, Los Angeles and Chicago.
