We are based in Toronto area which has become one of the fastest growing communities in IT” says Patrick Hojjat, the Technical Manager of Cirrus Tech Ltd.
Since 1999, cirrus has vigorously managed to offer valuable services (which were often only available to multi-national corporations) to small businesses and even individuals at surprising prices.
However, this strategy entailed some challenges that were overcome by some key decisions:
- Acquiring reliable applications – Hosting Accelerator and then Plesk.
- Building a well-equipped data center to reduce logistics costs.
- Subscription to reliable and competitive bandwidth providers
