Netcetera, one of Europe’s leading managed hosting and data center providers, has been nominated as one of five finalists in the prestigious 2010 ISPA Internet Industry Awards in the Best Shared Hosting category.
The battle for finalists’ places was ultra-competitive again this year with a large number of entries in all categories. Finalists in the majority of categories are selected based on three months of rigorous testing by ISPA’s technical testing partner, Epitiro.
“We are extremely proud to be nominated for this award for the fourth year in succession.” said Tim Cass of Netcetera “We strive to lead the industry through constant innovation and by delivering excellent value to our customers. It is good to know that our efforts are appreciated.”
The ISPA awards are unique because they are awarded to people and organisations in the industry by their peers. They have been organised since 1999 to herald the best of the internet industry and to celebrate innovation and best practice. Entrants in the Best Shared Hosting category are tested on the availability and performance of their web servers as well as features, value for money and other criteria.
Established in 1996, Netcetera is one of Europe’s leading Web Hosting service providers, with customers in over 60 countries worldwide. The company is a leading IT infrastructure provider offering datacentre co-location, dedicated servers and managed infrastructure services to businesses worldwide.
Responsibility for selecting the winners now lies with a high-profile panel of expert judges, which is this year chaired by Think Broadband Editor Andrew Ferguson.
ISPA Secretary General, Nicholas Lansman said, “Each year the ISPA Awards rewards the UK’s top Internet companies after a process that involves thorough technical testing and judging from an independent panel. I would like to congratulate all of the finalists and look forward to welcoming them to the Awards gala dinner ceremony, which looks like being one of our biggest to date.”
The winners will be announced on 8th July 2010, at a sparkling black tie awards ceremony at the Grosvenor Marriott Hotel, London.
