Managed Hosting

Claranet offers a wide range of reliable, scalable and secure Managed Hosting services to help your business deliver high quality web based services, whilst reducing your total cost of ownership. From working with you to gather your initial requirements through to delivery, our team of technology specialists will design a service that fully meets your business needs and objectives.

In a Managed Hosting environment, Claranet owns and is responsible for the datacentre, network, devices, operating system and application infrastructure components, providing a stable operating environment. This means you can free up internal IT staff from mundane tasks, there is no need for you to constantly update your equipment, and you will have access to qualified technical staff around-the-clock. Your IT team are free to manage the applications and maintain full control over the applications infrastructure and business processes.

Our intensive hosting requirements placed a strain on our hardware, which in turn was straining our IT support staff, Staff had to run from our office to the datacentre to maintain, reset or replace servers when something went wrong. It was too much of a strain on resources to continue. Jonathan Biggington, IT Manager at Image Source Jonathan Biggington, IT Manager at Image Source
