The Webdock Challenge

Initially, when Webdock started looking for a provider in North America, they were looking for a partner that offered affordable hosting services so that they could test the market with their innovative VPS product. ServerMania proved to be a very competent low-cost provider which fit their needs well.

Webdock needed a server partner that:
  • Offered exceptionally affordable pricing
  • Was highly responsive and solutions oriented
  • Ensured a high uptime
  • Had reliable infrastructure

ServerMania not only met Webdock’s needs in terms of excellent pricing, but more importantly ensured top notch communication with network engineers as well as outstanding service by providing them with a dedicated account manager.

“ServerMania has proved to be staffed by competent professionals who are quick to understand and deal with any issues that may come up.”

THE SERVERMANIA SOLUTION

Hassle-free colocation services and solutions

As Webdock looked to expand in the North American market they reviewed services from a number of big box providers, but eventually decided to stick with ServerMania in particular because of the service excellence and competitive pricing.

As they transitioned from shared-hosting platforms, then migrating over to VPS servers, and finally leasing bare-metal servers and setting up their own virtual machines, ServerMania was able to offer the colocation services and solutions they needed.

ServerMania worked with Webdock to implement the colocation solution smoothly, resulting in a hassle-free transition into North America.

"Co-location with ServerMania is the most hassle-free setup we have currently primarily due to the good communication channels we have and the bespoke technical implementation ServerMania provided us with on the networking side.”

Webdock Founder and CEO

“The service level with ServerMania has been absolutely excellent. We love that we have a single point of contact with our Account Manager.”

Speedy customer service you can count on

As part of its business model, ServerMania offers best-in-class customer service and support to every client. As Webdock rolled out its services in partnership with ServerMania, they were provided with an account manager that understood their business and the history of the relationship.

Pushing for the best possible outcomes, ServerMania’s account manager consistently helps to ensure the speedy resolution of critical issues for Webdock. And by fostering this relationship, the account manager is able to provide a high level of confidence and satisfaction to the company.

What advice does Webdock have for other companies about to embark on a similar project?


“Make sure you have direct lines of communication with your hosting provider’s relevant departments, especially network specialists. It is painful having to submit tickets through an anonymous interface when your infrastructure is down and you have to wait for your issue to be routed to the correct department.”
