Cinergy Communications Picks Hostopia for Web Hosting

Cinergy Communications Company (www.cinergycom.com), a leading provider of full service residential and business telecommunications services, has selected Hostopia to provide fully managed, private label web hosting and email for its small and medium business customers.

An agreement signed by the companies includes migration services wherein Hostopia will serve Cinergy Communication's existing hosting customers and provide an enhanced platform for new customers.

"We are very excited to gain Cinergy Communications as a private label partner," says Franc Nemanic, president of Hostopia. "They are an innovative and highly reputable brand force in Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee. We consider them to be an anchor provider for the region."

Pat Heck, Cinergy Communication's chief technology officer, comments, "We have built a very successful hosting business to complement our wide range of voice and data services. However, we can see the hosting market evolving towards a new ASP model of applications delivery. Hostopia allows us to offer dozens of new online hosted applications that truly allow the small and medium enterprise to build their online presence. It's what the market demands in hosting today."

Hostopia's highly customizable private label formula lets Cinergy Communications present its own unique brand for the hosting and email services to its customers, and is completely invisible as the management provider of the services.

End user technical support is provided by Cinergy Communications, assisted by Hostopia's turnkey suite of customer query tools and diagnostic applications as well as supplemental, tier two support to Cinergy Communication's care agents.

Hostopia provides private-branded hosting, email and e-commerce solutions to Telco's, ISPs, cable companies, domain registrars, and other Web Service Providers.
