HostPapa, a web hosting company, has added Cloud 9 Hosting to its cloud services, marking its third acquisition of an SMB-focused startup this year.
Cloud 9 Hosting, which was founded in 2007, provides managed cloud hosting services to small and medium enterprises by moving important accounting and tax programs, such as QuickBooks, Sage, Drake Tax, and LaCerte Tax, to the cloud.
Matt Dubois, who serves the role of CEO of Cloud 9 Hosting, had the following to say:
We are excited to be part of the growing HostPapa team. With this acquisition, Cloud 9 Hosting will be able to scale to provide a level of service our customers have come to expect while expanding services to a broader audience.
Jamie Opalchuk, who serves the role of CEO and is the Founder of HostPapa, had the following to say:
Cloud 9 Hosting is a reliable application hosting partner to small businesses, helping them move their accounting and tax applications into the cloud. This will enable HostPapa to expand into supporting these applications for our wider customer base. In line with our mission, the goal is to offer a full range of enterprise-grade solutions at an affordable price for entrepreneurs and SMBs. We think Cloud 9 Hosting is the perfect addition to the growing HostPapa group that will help us continue pursuing these goals.

TechRadar Pro has contacted Hostpapa to inquire about the firms’ future structures following the purchase.
Surprisingly, this is HostPapa’s third acquisition of an SMB-focused startup this year. The firm purchased Osiris Communications, a web hosting service provider, for an unknown sum in January 2022 and added WooCommerce hosting provider WooCart a month later.
