HOUSTON, Oct. 22, 2008 – The Planet, the global leader in IT hosting, today announced a limited-time promotion that provides significant discounts on more than 50 servers from its industry-leading portfolio. The Server Blowout Sale, which begins today and ends Oct. 23, 2008, offers discounts of up to 25 percent on some of the company’s most popular name-brand servers.
“In today’s economy, companies of all sizes – especially SMBs – are looking to cut costs and maximize their IT budgets,” said Urvish Vashi, The Planet’s general manager for dedicated servers. “The Planet’s size and scale allows us to offer considerable discounts on some of the best servers in the industry. By taking advantage of our server blowout, business owners can save literally hundreds of dollars per year on hosted IT, money they can use toward other business operations.”
With the offer, servers regularly priced at $200 or more are discounted 25 percent; servers typically priced below $200 are discounted 10 percent. Customers receive substantial savings on some of The Planet’s most powerful configurations, including Monster, RAID and virtual rack servers. For example, the Dual Xeon 5130 RAID, featuring four SCSI/SAS hard drives with 146GB of space each, is now $314 per month, reduced from $419. The Dual Xeon 5405 Monster, packed with 10 hard drives and 8GB of RAM, is regularly priced at $1,199 per month and drops to $899.
The company’s virtual racks are also included in the Server Blowout Sale, offering customers the benefits of pooled bandwidth, unlimited server-to-server data transfer and advanced security solutions in a multiserver environment.
