ServInt Internet Services was founded in 1995 by Reed Caldwell, who at the time was an undergraduate. In the beginning, ServInt consisted of just one small Linux server and was funded with a loan and credit cards. Today it has thousands of customers in some 60 countries, and the company is still privately owned, with Caldwell as CEO.
Company and Services
ServInt Internet Services is based in Virginia and has its headquarters in Mclean, near to Washington DC. The company appears to have positioned itself at the premium end of the web hosting market and specialises in providing high-end solutions for business with demanding requirements.
Three types of VPS hosting are offered, along with a dedicated option. For those looking to establish an online shop, ServInt has three enterprise packages. It also offers extensive technical support, available 24/7 x 365, and reachable via email, chat or by phone.
ServInt has built up a reputation for offering innovative products: it was the among the first hosting providers to offer a managed dedicated server plan. ServInt continues to be a dominant player in the managed dedicated server market.
According to ServInt’s company policy, it is not just about making money – it also lays claim to serious green credentials. With the ‘Green Initiative’, ServInt aims to use advanced technology to reduce its carbon footprint in every aspect of the business. This is backed-up by a re-forestation project which the company claims will do more than just balance the emissions for its VPS infrastructure: it will actually benefit the environment thanks to the volume of new trees that will result.
In addition to environmental awareness, ServInt is also set up to make a difference via the wider charitable sector. Through ServInt FreeNet it offers hundreds of non-profit organisations free web hosting, email and internet training.
Server Location
