Managed Hosting
As technology becomes more complex and businesses look for ways to streamline processes and improve productivity, managed hosting is rapidly becoming a valuable resource for many companies. Find out what it is and how your organization can benefit from it.
What is Managed Hosting?
Simply put, dedicated hosting services, a dedicated server, or multi domain hosting is a type of Internet hosting in which the client pays for use of a server that will not be shared with anyone. Unlike shared hosting, organizations enjoy full control over the server(s), including choice of operating system, hardware, etc. A complete solution usually includes server administration provided by the hosting company. Dedicated servers are most often housed in data centres, which provide redundant power sources and HVAC systems. Managed multi domain web hosting

The Benefits of Managed net web hosting
Below we will examine three of the most valuable benefits of using a managed service.
Greater Value
Managed hosting can in most cases provide greater value by increasing the cost efficiency of the entire process. Service providers have fully trained experts readily available and there is no need for you to invest in education and training as you may have to do with your own staff in order to get them to the level of efficiency that service providers already have. Thus it allows you to focus on your core business, rather than spending extra time and resources managing your technical infrastructure. Furthermore, there is a cost advantage with managed hosting. Because service providers distribute the cost and amount of available bandwidth among several clients, they are able to offer better prices on bandwidth and services than the client would be able to obtain n their own. The cost savings available to users of these type of solutions include not having to invest in.
Better Responsiveness
Managed hosting provides better responsiveness by guaranteeing 24-hour service and building in many layers of support and contingency planning. Because it is the core business of this service providers to proactively manage and optimize resources, they are in a much better position to conduct effective risk management and provide timely and efficient responsiveness to any unexpected issues. Because they know what they are doing, service providers provide better case management than internal IT staff could hope to achieve. Furthermore, because a large part of their business is customer service, most companies pride themselves on quick response times and expedient solutions.
More Features
Investing in managed hosting often buys you even more than you bargained for. Many services include an array of features that provide even greater value than the solution itself. Some of these features are invaluable for a company that relies heavily upon technology infrastructure but does not have the time or resources to consider all the ‘extras’that work towards optimizing the company’s network.
