High-Availability Unix Hosting
Csoft.net Hosting, Inc
High-Performance, High-Availability Hosting on Redundant Server Arrays

The Csoft.net hosting company has been providing a secure, reliable and affordable hosting service since 1995. Our servers are located in state-of-the-art data centers with Tier 1 connectivity (most importantly AS701). Because we use redundant arrays of servers, our users are shielded against any interruption of service (100% uptime guarantee), and we can quickly adjust such that server load never becomes a significant factor in performance. Most of our competitors are offering inflexible hosting packages with traffic limits, lack of redundancy and oversold / unneeded storage space. We focus instead on providing our customers with the resources they require, at higher standards of performance and reliability.

Our friendly technical support service is available to respond to your queries live or within a maximum of 4 hours, 7 days a week, year-round. No autoresponses, no unnecessary protocol. Our qualified system administrators and programmers are there to fix the bugs, answer your questions and implement your suggestions. Over the years, we have designed, redesigned and refined our services and software based on the generous feedback we receive from our users. Our philosophy is to provide our customers, whether they are casual users or experts, with the services and tools that lets them do what they want as quickly and effectively as possible. Further driving the point that we enjoy solving problems, we are invested in the full-time development of several free open-source software projects.
