WebAir
Webair Managed Cloud Servers
With our Managed Cloud Server Solutions - You receive the full amount of allocated memory, CPU, network i/o, etc that you are paying for. Unlike a traditional VPS (virtual private server), the WEBAIR MANAGED CLOUD SERVER SOLUTIONS offer truly dedicated and protected resources. Additionally, you now have the as the ability for your CPU allocation to burst when there are free CPU cycles on the host machine or when it is heavily underutilized. So often you end up with far more CPU allocation than what you are paying for!

2020Media
What does 2020Media offer?
2020Media is a well established (founded in 1999), UK based, web hosting company. We specialise in offering hosting support for open source applications like CiviCRM (and it's parent framework Drupal or Joomla). This means rather than just getting an off the shelf install of CiviCRM without any support, 2020Media offers a customised install of the software, setup and initial configuration all free of charge with any hosting plan. We take time to understand what our clients wants from CiviCRM and advise on the best way of implementing their organisational goals.
Pricing
CiviCRM is available free of charge, installed and working, on any of 2020Media's hosting plans. This means the monthly cost can be as low as £3.75+vat (£45+vat/year), well within the reach of almost all organisations. Because of the amount of data generated in CiviCRM, our recommended hosting plan is 'Everyday'. Pricing for Everyday is just £9.99+vat/month.
Elifarley Proposal
CoralCDN - p2p, voluntary content distribution network. Some countries disallow CorAL (Saudi Arabia, Iran), SO WE ARE CONFIGURING OUR SERVER TO GO DRECTLY TO OUR HOST, NOT CDN.
