READING, England, October 5, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- DediPower, the UK's fastest growing private hosting company*, delivers full service managed hosting to e-commerce developer Iocea, which processes over GBP millions of orders annually from leading retailers including Hobbycraft, Wolsey and Pet Supermarket.
As its long term hosting partner, DediPower has been supporting Iocea's Cshop, bespoke and custom web and ecommerce solutions, for over 8 years. Recently Iocea switched from traditional co-location solution to a fully managed virtualisation platform to take full benefit of DediPower's technical expertise; freeing up its internal resources to focus on customer service and the strategic expansion of Cshop for small retailers and start-ups.
Importantly, DediPower provides the rigorous standards necessary to maintain retail facing transaction based systems - which helps safeguard Iocea's substantial investment in PCI Level 1 certification, which is now a prerequisite for many of retail customers
Derek Turnbull, Director, Iocea comments, We have worked long and hard to build our valued reputation. Our switch to a managed hosting platform is testament to our positive experience with DediPower. We believe its secure systems, responsive and passionate support, and stringent SLAs, will continue to ensure we retain 100% client trust and our PCI certification.
DediPower has not only freed Iocea's internal resource to focus on new and existing customers but its solutions architects have also added real value in terms of system innovation, optimisation and performance. Experienced at implementing secure Cloud and virtualisation platforms, DediPower understands our business and supports us with the exact skill-sets we need to get the best out of our 40 virtual and 7 dedicated servers.
Iocea is responsible for the delivery and running of extremely busy web sites, generating thousands of concurrent visitors a day and continually processing millions of pounds of transactions. At peak times, such as Christmas, volumes can increase ten fold and, for any retail customer, downtime would be a disaster.
Turnbull states, Once again, DediPower's robust infrastructure, flexible approach and competitive pricing comes into its own. It allows us to scale sites up instantly as soon as additional traffic, transaction and processing capacity is required - without incurring substantial costs. Whatever their size, DediPower keeps our retailers online, open for business and working to full speed 24/7/365, irrespective of volumes or seasonal pressures.
Craig Martin, CEO DediPower adds, Iocea has built a reputation for trust and delivery in the highly competitive e-commerce space. DediPower is committed to helping them maintain this through our own 'Passion for Service' and world class hosting platforms. By working in close partnership with Iocea, we can offer retail customers the fastest, most responsive and commercially competitive e-commerce hosting service available - adding substantial value and return to their online sales investment.
Both companies will be exhibiting at this year's E Commerce Expo at London Olympia on 19-20 October. Visit DediPower on Stand 700 and Iocea (Cshop) on Stand 610.
