All the features you want without the hidden charges
Many companies price their services similar to ECUi, but when you look at what they offer versus ECUi you will see that the fine print adds up to many hidden charges.

One example is that ECUi lets you setup eMail accounts for all of your employees or partners. With most other hosting providers five or ten eMail accounts are included, however additional accounts means additional charges to you, or no eMail for some of your staff.

We provide you with plenty of disk storage and data transfer (this affects the number of visitors you may have without incurring additional hidden charges), so when your Web site becomes a success you're not penalized with even more charges. Unlike many competitors, ECUi does not penalize you if you decide to upgrade or downgrade service plans.

Our own network
We are not a Reseller; ECUi actually owns and operates the facilities! When searching the Web, it may appear that there are around 10,000 Web hosting companies. However, almost all Web hosting companies buy their network or rent network space from one of several other providers (including from ECUi).

The latest technology
ECUi currently utilizes multiple Fiber optic SONET rings, each with Gigabit capacity, for our Internet backbone connection. In fact, you can always count on ECUi to use the latest technology to host your site. An up to date network at your hosting company is crucial to make sure your Web site always has speed to burn. To illustrate, imagine a small and a large pipe. If you connected each of these pipes to the bottom of buckets filled with water, the bucket attached to the larger pipe would empty much faster.

This concept is similar to Internet access. Small Internet connections are heavily overloaded. That means it will take longer to display your Web site to the world and we all know how impatient your customers may be.

Many Web hosting companies offer low prices (usually still higher than ECUi), but slow Web sites. This occurs because they host your site on a fractional DS-3 (in other words, this may mean that they use 3 MBPS when a full DS-3 is 45MBPS). They use a small pipe while we use a much larger one.

ECUi uses carrier grade Cisco Systems routers, and we are constantly adding and updating equipment to increase reliability and speed, such as our Catalyst 6500 switches. If this all sounds too technical that is ok, ECUi will make sure our network and your Web site are always running at top performance.

Thousands can't be wrong
ECUi has been chosen by companies around the world to host their Web sites, and has become one of the fastest growing Web hosting companies in the world. In fact, thousands of companies trust ECUi not only to host their Web site but also to Co-Locate their very own servers with because we understand how important each Web site is. We have created the technical infrastructure to support your needs, whether you are a beginner, a guru or actually provide hosting services.
