Online Storage Options – Affordable & Flexible

Over the years we have seen disk storage allotments increase dramatically with Web hosting plans.  About 9 years ago a large shared hosting provider had a “leading storage allotment” of 150MB on their $19.95 plan.   Back then 7,000MB of storage hardware would cost $60,000! With the digital revolution (audio, video, and images), the increasing size of databases and compliance needs driving record/log storage, many companies are in a situation where demand is beginning to outpace supply.

Small Businesses Have Big Company Hosting Needs

Why should reliability, security, and performance only be available to the Enterprise?  These fundamental technology hosting requirements are just as important, and in some cases more important, to the small business.  Small businesses are just that – small, and any issue could cause big problems that small businesses just cannot afford – both financially and with the public perception of their offer.

It is often said:

-A visitor to a Website has less than 3 seconds of patience while waiting for a Web page to load or home page to appear.

A small business that does not backup up its data has a higher rate of failure than one that does backup their data.

With reliability, security, and performance being so important, for both SMB’s and Enterprises, it makes sense for service providers that have the capability to service both customers with the same fundamental core set of functionality.  This is exactly the NaviSite philosophy: deliver the foundational requirements of the Enterprise and make it accessible to the SMB.

All NaviSite dedicated servers feature powerful CPUs, dual hard drives, RAID 1 or better, Intrusion Protection System  Tipping Point, Anti-Virus for the server, all delivered across a Cisco powered network and  Tier-1 network providers.
