Colocation Prices Slashed at Netwise Hosting

As many of you may already be aware from our recent market reaction tests, we are currently in the process of repositioning our applauded Server Colocation services.

The team here at Netwise have always been known for radically rethinking the company’s approach to the market. From our unique facility, right through to our unparalleled personal support network, we have always done things a little differently here. This restructuring of our colocation pricing takes this notion a step further, solidifying our position as the premium data centre of choice in London across all of our service sets (dedicated servers, server colocation, and online backup).

Our acclaimed colocation packages are now the highest value offerings available in the capital, bringing true affordability to London’s retail colocation marketplace. Combining our existing world-class enterprise level service quality with these new price points places Netwise Hosting at the very forefront of the high-demand retail colocation sector.

A snapshot of the new pricing can be seen below, with particular attention to be drawn to our full rack offering, which is just £699 / month until January 2013;

Full Rack Colocation > £799 £699 / month + £0 Setup

  • 40U Lockable Enclosure

New Online Backup Service Launch a Success

The 22nd of August 2012 marked the launch of Netwise Hosting’s brand new online backup services, designed to cater for working business environments that require multiple workstations and servers to be secured against local threats to data integrity.

The new system, which completed primary testing in early July, is now fully operational and on sale through the Netwise Hosting website. Office packages enjoy easy-to-manage desktop environment backups for an unlimited number of Windows, Mac and Linux machines, while the premium Enterprise packages also add server backups into the mix, including live MSSQL and MySQL database and MS Exchange server services.

Matthew Butt, Managing Director at Netwise Hosting, explained why this new system has been put into action; “We initially identified a strong need to build a new backup solution for our own dedicated server and colocation clients – the one we had in place wasn’t working hard enough for us, particularly for those with multiple services. We opted to develop our own system that would not only appeal to our own clients, but also those with primary services elsewhere, or for those with office environments that simply wish to back up their information off-site.”
