Uptime & Reliability

Excellent reliability with 100% SLAs

This company clearly knows that uptime is a key factor for all their customers.  They offer a full 100% uptime agreement in their SLA, and if the sites go down you will get a credit on your bill.  The SLA is somewhat complex, but the bottom line is you just have to submit a ticket to have the credits applied.

Fortunately, you won’t likely experience any significant downtime because of the fact that they use only high end hardware and their data centers are all equipped with many levels of redundancy.  They even have Juiper routers (which are very stable) that provide the connection to the internet itself.

Features

Everything you need is avaialble

This company offers a wide range of features so they can meet the needs of all their high end customers.  This starts with an excellent selection of dedicated and cloud servers, which come with all types of different hardware specs available.  Since you will have full root access to your servers, you can choose which OS you want, and install any type of scripts or other items that you need.  This is great for those companies that know what they are doing and want the added options to be able to make the exact site they want.

They have two data centers, both in the US, and both of which are built with redundancy and stability in mind.  They have multiple connections out to the internet, using a variety of well known telephone companies so that even if one is experiencing issues, they can fail over to the others.

Support

Great support for any type of technical problems

The technical support provided by this company is really second to none.  In most cases, they will identify problems through their proactive software and hardware monitoring, so you won’t even know there is an issue.  When you do need to contact them, they have a nice ticketing system as well as 24/7 phone support.

It is important to note that most customers will go with an unmanaged option, so they don’t have free technical support for issues that are outside the scope of their responsibility (configuration issues, ect).

Pricing

Expensive hosting but you get what you pay for

If you go with this company for your hosting you will be paying top dollar for the services.  That being said, you will also get exactly what you pay for.  This hosting provider is dedicated to their higher end customers and those who really value top support and uptime, so it is not a surprise that they charge more than the competition.
