Have total transparency of costs
Fed up with paying London prices and getting a raw deal at many other facilities? Don’t like paying in advance and getting charged for power you don’t use? And when wholesale prices increase, they are always passed on to you – but they never seem to be reduced when wholesale prices fall?
Now there is a new way to pay for power. Easynet is changing to a new system that is much fairer to our customers:
- Charge is calculated monthly. If you use nothing, you pay nothing
- Totally transparent charging based on charge we get from our supplier
- Gives better value if you have to “pre-buy” additional racks for expansion
“We are very pleased with Easynet’s managed security services. They truly understand the key risks and issues for the world of finance. This solution has secured our core infrastructure and opened up more opportunities for growth.”

Ensure availability of power and space
London area resources are becoming increasingly stretched as escalating server use and massive projects including the Olympics and Crossrail threaten to drain the London grid. These very real concerns are leading many major businesses to seek new business continuity solutions away from the capital. With many of docklands data centre facilities showing their age and current builds struggling to replace capacity, colocation at our Slough facility provides an ideal solution; an expertly power-managed infrastructure that will insure you against the vagaries of the market.
Demonstrate compliance
Recent regulatory changes and global economic events have sparked significant shifts and new pressures on businesses.
The key compliance drivers are relentless organic growth, the sea of regulation surrounding the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MIFID), the accounting rules required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the deployment of new technologies like IP-Telephony, and data-intensive content management processes. Easynet’s ISO 27001 accredited security compliance, uncommon for hosting providers, and the quality of our Slough facility and processes, make it easy and straightforward for you to demonstrate compliance and simplify your business life.
