Netcetera has been named by Netcraft as one of the most reliable Web hosting companies in their latest provider uptime report and secured the top spot for the most reliable Windows Web Host.  The results were announced after a month long automated analysis of routing requests and load timing requests from varied key internet testing locations around the world.

These awards are based on the smallest number of failed requests and speed connection time. The reason of using these two measurements is to supply the clearest indication of network capacity and congestions, with minimum impact from the performance of the businesses own web servers. Netcraft believes customers place more relevance on the percentage of failed requests than outages on a hosting companies’ site, as this gives an indication to the routing reliability.

Netcetera faired greater than all other providers who were running Microsoft Windows Server as their operating system in order to secure the top spot for Most Reliable Windows Host and was ranked number ten on the list of all providers that utilised other operating systems.

“We are exceptionally proud to be named Netcraft’s Most Reliable Windows Host and ranked tenth most reliable hosting company. It is an affirmation of our hard work and strong guarantee to maximum network uptime. Along with an accurately managed network, we offer our customers a level of support unparalleled by other expertly managed hosts by giving time to learn about their business goals and how we can help them succeed and flourish. The efficiency of our network is just one of the many strengths Netcetera has to offer,” said Peter Skelton, Managing Director of Netcetera.

“Our clients’ number one greatest importance is having their Web sites up and running. At Netcetera we’re no different. Netcraft’s acknowledgement of our reliably echoes our drive and passion to provide our customers 100% uptime,” said Felicitas Gawenat Marketing Manager for Netcetera.

The periodic Netcraft uptime reports are popular world wide for customers conducting provider research and network analysis experts alike. Netcraft has provided research data and analysis on many aspects of the Internet since 1995 and is a well respected and established authority on the market share of web servers, hosting providers, operating systems, ISPs, electronic commerce, scripting languages, encrypted transactions and content technologies on the internet.

Netcetera have launched their new Continuous Data Protection (CDP) Backup Solution as a option to all Dedicated and VM Server clients. The introduction of the CDP Backup Service has allowed the company to phase out traditional backup solutions, which offers less flexibility and does not enable end users to manage their own backups and perform restorations – including Bare-Metal restores. Servers can operate at full capacity without a significant performance impact during the backup process.

Users can now manage backups through a web interface, backups are created four times each day, and up to 28 previous restore points are automatically archived – allowing users to access an entire week of backups.

“Whether it’s a disaster or just accidental data loss, the ability to access such a vast assortment of restore points is vital functionality that we are excited to offer to our customers,” said Tim Cass, Netcetera’s Chief Technical Officer. “CDP allows us to take data protection to the next level, as we continue to seek value-added products and services to make Netcetera an even more attractive choice for web hosting in this competitive market.”

All existing and new customers are able to take advantage of the new backup service. Prices start at only GBP50.00 per month.
