As standard with all our Dedicated Servers

It’s not just about the server itself, you know.  We really go the extra mile to make sure everything is covered for you.

You’ll get all this as standard with our Dedicated Servers

  • UltraFire™ Enterprise-Class Firewall included with all servers (see below).
  • 2 or 4 Hour Hardware Replacement Guarantee for your peace of mind. (More info in Our Support Charter)
  • 100% Power SLA and 99.95% Network Availability SLA for predictable reliability. (More info in Our Support Charter)
  • 24/7 Support by Phone and Online Support Centre.
  • Professional and capable support from experts in line with our Our Support Charter. We don’t treat you like an idiot like other providers do.
  • Remote Reboot switch and KVM over IP (Console over IP) giving you complete remote access and control of your server.
  • 5 IP addresses as standard, with unlimited further IP addresses in line with RIPE justification.

Our super-resilient network architecture

Our network setup has been designed to keep your dedicated server available 24/7. The diagram below shows our dual-redundant architecture.

In practice, this means that if a network component is critical to the correct running of your server, there will be two or more of them in place.

Access to an Enterprise-Class Firewall – at no extra cost!

At no extra cost, all dedicated servers and cloud servers are secured by our custom-built UltraFire™ High-Availability firewalls, configured in failover pairs.

The online firewall interface, accessed through our support centre, allows you to specify rules for your servers, which will take effect immediately.

Each customer is assigned a private security zone on the firewall appliance, and traffic between customers is treat like external traffic, meaning you have the same level of protection that you’d normally only find in a dedicated hardware firewall.

Unlike other providers, who either charge extra for firewalling, or subject you to restrictive standard rule policies, we give you the full flexibility to control your own rules at no extra cost. And because our firewalls are configured in high-availability pairs, you can expect a higher level of uptime when compared with a single firewall appliance.
