I'm looking for a company to manage a Windows server in the same way, and to the same standard, as Platinum Management Services do for CPanel boxes.

Has anyone got any recommendations please?

Thanks

Chris

They seem ok, but this is the year 2007. They havn't updated or came out with anything new since they opened in 2005. :eek: :eek:

Their are allot.. You just have to have the time to do the research and search. I dont know any server management company that can match with PSM but here are a few lists of some outsource companies who can manage your windows box:

http://www.hostechsupport.com
http://www.udsquare.com
http://www.bytetechnosys.com

Their are allot more, but these are the providers I seen around here who do managed windows hosting.

So you are saying?

If their site is not updated, that doesn't mean they are not good anymore unless you used their services already?

No that is what your saying.

SimpliQ is more of a European DataCenter these days, rather than a tech support company, although we do have our select client base which we plan to maintain, but we're not taking on any new clients.

The simpliq.com website is not updated, as it doesn't need any updates. The main business portal is simpliq.ro

Hope that clears everything up.

Hi SimpliQ,

yes it should be more obvious now. :) Thanks for the input.

So, please explain what do you mean by this:

"They seem ok, but this is the year 2007. They havn't updated or came out with anything new since they opened in 2005."


You are giving doubt to the OP about this company. So, what is that suppose to mean? since I do not know what you meant about it.

Let us not give any doubt to the users if we do not know about that company shall we?

Thank you for the explanation.

At least this makes sense.

It clears it up for me too as I couldn't see many managed server solutions on their web site.

HostingSupportGuru (http://www.hostingsupportguru.com/server_plan.htm) look promising. There aren't many reviews about them on WHT, so has anybody got any views about them.

The other option I'm considering is having a fully managed server from a host such as LiquidWeb or similar.

Thanks for the suggestions and help so far.

The question is not so much if you can find a company that does Managed Windows solutions but rather can you find one that offers the features and support you are looking for?

You seem to have found a number of options and gotten a number of recommendations, I'd be interested to see who you choose and why if you don't mind telling us.
