Virtual Internet - Within days of announcing it will shortly be entering the U.S. hosting market, Virtual Internet is offering UK clients the chance to get a free Ipad 2 if they sign up for annual colocation packages.
“Corporate customers who sign up for a full (or half) rack colocation package for one year will get a new Ipad 2,” said Yana Kryuchkova, Marketing Manager, Virtual Internet.
Those companies who wish to mitigate risk and get their feet wet with a 3-month contract (or above) will automatically receive the first month free.
Colocation involves shipping company servers to Virtual Internet’s sophisticated 10,000 square feet data centre in London that offer some of the highest allocation speeds in the UK; up to 40TB.
Colocation packages start at £49 featuring an “always-up” environment with redundant power, air conditioning and a fail-safe environment through multiple carriers.
“We are always looking for ways to incentivize our colocation packages and make them a compelling choice for our astute clients. We regularly hold iPhone and iPad contests as a way to show our appreciation for their business and feedback,” said Patrick McCarthy, Managing Director, Virtual Internet.
Virtual Internet was recently awarded ISO 9001 & 27001 certifications, which dovetails with its flawless reputation for maintaining a 100% network uptime guarantee inside world-class data centres.
“Clients can eliminate the headaches of running onsite hardware/software which usually entail rising costs and increased complexity,” said Mr. McCarthy.
The Virtual Internet core network infrastructure is 10Gb, with 1Gb links to Edge switches providing 100Mb ports to servers. 1Gb ports are available to customers who require it.
Virtual Internet offers customers the ability to rent full (or half) rack mounts for a one-time fee and additional services including a seamless deployment of power and cabling for the incoming servers.
“Your collocated servers are in safe hands; we were voted the most reliable web hosting platform in Great Britain in 2009 and we work hard to maintain this standard.” said Mr. McCarthy.
All colocation services are backed up by VI-tal Support, which operates around the clock, 365 days per year.
