Microsoft Platform
Herndon, VA— September 9, 2004
– Today, SWsoft, the established leader in hosting
automation and server virtualization software, announced
that several leading hosting service providers have
bundled SWsoft’s Plesk 7 for Windows control panel
with their hosting offerings.
Launched in July 2004, Plesk 7 for Windows
is featured by a broad array of US and International
hosting providers that offer shared, discount dedicated
and managed dedicated services. Providers that have
recently adopted Plesk 7 for Windows include: Rackspace,
DataPipe, ServerMatrix, IPOWERWEB, SERVER4YOU, ServerBeach,
Flexservers and many more.
"With over 10,000 dedicated Linux
servers in our data centers in Europe and the US, we
will now launch Windows servers in all of our markets
worldwide,” said Thomas Strohe, marketing president,
SERVER4YOU. “SWsoft has been a terrific help in
this process by providing really great support and a
superior product. Plesk 7 for Windows is the most stable
control Windows panel and as easy to use and install
as the Linux version."
Plesk 7 for Windows includes native
support for Microsoft technologies along with more than
50 new innovative features and overall ease-of-use that
professional hosting service providers have come to
expect from SWsoft. The product offers the same proven
functionality of Plesk for Linux/UNIX and includes additional
features exclusive to the Windows version.
“Plesk has helped catapult our
Web hosting business by selling more servers with Plesk,”
said Lance Crosby, Chief Operating Officer, ServerMatrix
and The Planet. “Our customers know that with
SWsoft, they are going to receive a stable and secure
solution that they can depend on in a crunch. Now, with
virus and spam protection baked into the Windows product
in addition to all of the other great features of the
Linux version, Plesk is our long-term control panel
solution.”
The Control Panel of Choice —
Windows Hosting Made Easy Around the World
Wrapped in an XP-like interface that is both familiar
and comfortable to users, Plesk 7 for Windows is fully
customizable and installs all applications necessary
for offering and managing virtually any hosting service.
Plesk provides a secure control panel that offers one-stop
server management and includes a complete Application
Vault with AntiSpam, AntiVirus, Site Builder, eCommerce,
Firewall Management, Auto Update, Backup and more.
Plesk 7 for Windows is fully localized
for more than ten different languages. Users at every
level can view and work in the system in multiple languages
simultaneously. Plesk allows resellers to work in one
language while selling domains in another.
“Windows growth is expanding into
Europe at a rapid pace, and Plesk quickly became the
control panel of choice for our customers,” said
Arno Vis, CEO, Flexservers. “With its multiple
language support capabilities combined with a robust
feature-set, Plesk is flexible enough to help us grow
into new countries and new markets.”
“In order to grow without limits,
service providers today must have a unified control
panel that spans both Linux/Unix and Windows platforms,”
stated Kurt Daniel, director of marketing, SWsoft. “Plesk
gives hosting providers an unmatched ability to offer
lower priced shared and dedicated server offerings that
do not sacrifice reliability, functionality, support
or Microsoft integration.”
