Managed Web Hosting
We offer what we like to call Flexible Server Management on all of our Dedicated Servers. We also offer a special line of Fully Managed, all-inclusive pre-configured servers called the PARAMOUNT Series Servers which are managed under a special management configuration.

Our Flexible Dedicated Server Management services allow your organization to choose from a variety of managed web hosting services, and more importantly only select those services that are actually needed.
The end result is a more transparent, and in many cases a much more cost-effective managed web hosting solution.

- How The Competition Does It
-
Traditionally, managed web hosting providers have offered managed hosting services bundled into "packages" or "service bundles".
By bundling services before selling them, they are able to charge more and force clients into buying services that they may not need. Managed hosting packages present the customer with a great deal of inflexibility by forcing them into ridged managed web hosting packages that may include more, or less managed web hosting services than what they may actually need.
SingleHop offers a great deal more flexibility to clients than other providers by simply allowing every client to customize their managed hosting services. This is just one of the ways how We Manage IT Differently.
-
- The Big Disadvantage
-
The traditional managed hosting provider has numerous disadvantages. Here are a few additional problems with traditional managed web hosting:
- Inflexible and ridged structure
- Pay for services you do not need
- Expensive per-ticket or per-issue support charges
- No direct-to-NOC support service
- No personal Account Executive service

Don't need server management because you are an advanced user or an organization with on staff system administrators? No problem. When purchasing your server, just select 'Unmanaged' and we'll install the server and hand it over to you.
