75,000 Websites at Risk – How One Hosting Company Saved 63% Annually

 

 

If you’re still handing over a fortune to OEM support because you’re too scared to make a change, this is your wake-up call.

 

For years, a large hosting company—responsible for over 75,000 active websites—was stuck in a cycle of overpaying for OEM maintenance. Why? FEAR.

 

Fear of downtime.  Fear of making the wrong move and losing customer trust.

 

But here’s the reality—sticking to the status quo was a slow bleed. Annual support costs were climbing year after year, and as the client grew so did their operational costs. Redundancies are pre-built into their architecture, making every new system that much more expensive to operate at 99.9999% uptime. Every system failure for a hosting provider is a high-stakes situation. With over 75,000 websites to keep online, reliability wasn’t just important—it was everything.

 

So, what changed?  They finally made the switch to third-party maintenance, slashing their annual maintenance spend by a staggering 63% annually.

 

That’s not a typo—63% savings, without sacrificing an ounce of reliability. In fact, we can even provide onsite spares for like systems we are supporting at the same data center location - Hard Drives, RAM, Processors, and power supplies. By escaping the OEM contract, you can customize a maintenance strategy that best fits your business. On top of that, you gain flexibility and financial freedom to retain that cost savings or choose to invest that in growth.

 

Are you next? Or are you going to keep burning money because you’re afraid to make a change?  Your competitors are waking up.  They’re saving money, strengthening uptime, and delivering more value to their customers. With today’s economic uncertainty, businesses are looking for ways to both save money and maintain investment for growth. If you’re not ready to make the switch, your fear is their opportunity.

 

Don’t be the last to save.  Don’t be the last to innovate.  Make the switch to third-party maintenance today, before your profits disappear and your competition leaves you in the dust.
