Why do you need Website Hosting?
Website hosting begins with the storage of your files on a server. Web traffic communicates with your server to find your website and accesses your stored files to display pages as you intended them to be shown.
What are Hosting Service Providers?
A hosting service provider procures hardware, software, storage, and network services. They also develop solutions to enable website and database hosting services.
Our iMIS Hosting Advantages
We guarantee that our iMIS hosting services secure our clients by delivering more than the average hosting service provider.
Systematic Approach
When you submit your iMIS issue in a ticket, it is assigned to an available expert within 30 minutes. You can expect a response within 2 hours, and daily updates until it is resolved. We guarantee our customers’ satisfaction with quick responses and clear communications.
Advanced Monitoring
Our tools monitor critical windows operating system attributes like disk space, server outages, and windows services. We will monitor your internet service performance, SSL/TLS certificate, FTP, DNS server and websites. The team will provide monthly health reports for your servers, databases, and applications.
High-Speed Performance
We understand that your iMIS hosting environments can overheat. That’s why we have systems that proactively recognize and cool down your infrastructure to deliver the best performance. Our 24/7 iMIS support team will immediately capture any performance drops and report any recommendations.
Custom Configurations
We will support and accommodate all websites and 3rd party solutions and provide recommendations. Hosting configurations will be setup for your iMIS instance, such as your templates, which data can be monitored, when that data will be monitored, and who is notified when monitoring is complete.
Flexible Scalability
If your iMIS resource requirements change you can migrate to our dedicated or virtual hosting where you can upscale or downscale hassle free. We can explore a hybrid solution if your future projection doesn’t show large scale changes.
Tailored BCDR
Using the information collected in your security audit we will work together to create your Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery procedures. We will ensure this includes easy recovery and restoration of your iMIS data. Daily and monthly backups are taken of your iMIS data and stored in a secure, off-site facility.
Premium Infrastructure
Our datacenters are located in Canada and the United States. They are maintained with the latest hardware available and the highest level of reliability. We ensure your organization’s data is secure and complies with governing laws that are changing often during this digital boom.
World Class Support
Your iMIS system will receive expert support from our team of Certified iMIS Administrators (CiA) & Certified iMIS Professionals (CiP). We will deploy and maintain your system’s capacity, security, operating systems patches, utilization, RiSE private & public websites, SQL scripts or queries, and web traffic challenges.
Enhanced Data Security
Recommended iMIS improvements will be communicated and upon approval implemented so that your data and access security policies meet your organization’s standards. Operating system patches will be applied as soon as they have passed your environment tests run by our Senior Network Administrators.
iMIS Hosting Factors
Moving your iMIS Engagement Management System (EMS) to the cloud brings significant benefits. Your applications will run better on the latest technology, and you will reduce IT management headaches. The expenses and savings can be calculated in the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). iMIS cloud hosting typically brings more savings when you factor in all the costs of hosting on-premises.
On-Premises Pains
iMIS hosting on your own premises usually means a few people doing a lot of troubleshooting. Whether you are new to hosting or you have hosted for a few years, you likely still want to know how the experts deal with the issues your organization runs into.
The issues of on-premises hosting
Cloud Solutions
iMIS cloud hosting is the ability to make applications and websites available on the internet using the cloud. It pools computing resources from a network of virtual and physical servers, allowing for greater scalability and flexibility to quickly make changes. With E-Tech Cloud we take over the problem solving and give you full support for your iMIS.
The benefits of having E-Tech cloud
Our Cloud Server Hosting Types
Hosting with E-Tech is equivalent to ASI hosting options for iMIS with additional configuration and security options and faster responses from support. This is because E-Tech is a private cloud provider, so we can access everything without ASI restrictions. Our cloud server hosting options will deliver a high-quality cloud experience with enhanced performance and security at the forefront.
Dedicated Hosting
Dedicated iMIS hosting will allow your organization to have the fastest approval process for hardware. You will have an easy time configuring your hardware with our experts, maximizing your cloud experience.
Virtual Hosting
Virtual iMIS hosting is the best option for your organization if you want the lowest overall hosting costs and the fastest changes to your environment. This is due to having no hardware costs and maintenance fees. The migration to virtual is quickest, and the changes of upscaling or downscaling take effect immediately and are the best value for your spending.
Cluster Hosting
Cluster iMIS hosting is the best option for your organization if you historically have a predictable storage dependency. Your initial setup cost will be lowest as well as the lowest maintenance fees, with equal performance and failure prevention. Lastly this allows for a hybrid of partial hosting on-premises and E-Tech Cloud.
