Reliable Networks - Our bandwidth to the internet is provided by XO Communications. XO provides its own private, nationwide, multi-terabit network which delivers industry-leading IP connectivity at the fastest speeds available today. The XO network has a high-capacity IP network with a terabit-capable routing core that provides speed capacity and flexibility. XO has extensive network peering relationships which gives them direct paths to all other major network service providers so that your internet traffic travels shorter distances and at peak speed.

Network Security - Firewall Systems – Our network has firewall systems which only allow access to specific ports as needed for our clients. All other ports are closed so the outside internet does not have access to our network. Intrusion Prevention Systems – Unlike other hosting companies, SoZo Hosting uses intrusion prevention systems which are used to scan incoming and outgoing network packets for signatures that may resemble a hack attempt. The intrusion prevention systems filter out all hack signatures that are recognized before they reach our network. This is another level of security we offer to prevent systems from being compromised. We provide security features that other hosting companies lack. Spam Prevention – Our network is protected in real-time from spam email. This system is always being fine-tuned to intercept spam before it reaches our servers or clients’ mailboxes. Physical Security - The data center is equipped for security with a gated card reader for entry to the premises followed by card readers into the facility and locked cages.

Technical Expertise - All of our technicians have over 10 years of experience in specific internet specialties that include network security, software development and server implementation. We also provide on-staff engineers that specialize in Coldfusion hosting and administration as well as windows dedicated server and linux dedicated server hosting.

Our Dedication to Customer Satisfaction - SoZo Hosting aims to provide rapid resolution to all submitted customer support requests. We strive to know each of our clients and meet their internet business needs. We provide 24/7 support, so we will be there whenever you need us. We find it important to provide our clients with personal attention to their e-business needs while also providing prompt customer support and service.

We Grow with Our Clients - As a client grows we can provide them with additional services ranging from additional bandwidth, dedicated servers, or their very own VPN connection. A growth path for a small client to a large client could be something like this: 1) Start of on a Windows Shared Server Hosting Plan, 2) upgrade later to a Virtual Windows Dedicated Server Plan (VPS), 3) upgrade later again to a Windows Dedicated Server Plan as the business grows.

We Do Not Oversell - You will find that when you host a site with us it comes up very fast and the network is very responsive. Some hosting companies are known to run several hundreds of websites on one server with the goal of saving money. In the long run this will cause sites to run slowly and create management headaches for the clients and the hosting provider themselves. We are very careful about scaling our servers to accommodate only as many sites or applications as they can handle. Your sites will scale well and respond rapidly on our servers and networks. Another item that we do not oversell is bandwidth. If you sign up for a plan with 50 gig of bandwidth or more, we make sure that we have the bandwidth you signed up for.

The Best Value - All of our hosting accounts come with an easy-to-use control panel with an array of features including the ability to modify your own DNS records, read your site statistics, and set up email accounts. Our resellers can set up their own billing system that will automate client billing. SoZo Hosting proves that saving money doesn't have to mean compromising service.

Otto - began producing backstage passes in 1974 and soon became the standard of the touring industry. The company virtually invented the concept of the touring backstage pass. Prior to JOP's appearance on the scene, most passes were issued by promoters. This practice had two effects. First, the cost of passes was quite high. Promoters buying passes in small lots could not approach the economy of scale represented by a tour-sized purchase. Second, the production staff and management of the touring artist effectively lost control of their own security. As JOP's approach directly addressed both of these issues, putting full control of security in the hands of the touring company, and pressing the per-date cost of passes far below the then-standard $100, the company's products and services were quickly accepted almost universally in the concert industry in North America. By 1979, one would have been hard-put to find a tour not using Totto passes.
