Brief History of Planet Company
Are you tired of moving from hosting company to hosting company? Do you need more than just space and bandwidth? ThePlanet.com Internet Services, Inc. a Delaware corporation, doing business as The Planet, was founded in 1994. This privately held company is focused on customer-driven web hosting solutions and award winning customer service. Our services and solutions are driven from direct customer feedback and changing market forces. For Example, the introduction of our online support portal ORBIT was derived from repeated requests from customers for more control and access to their offsite hosting facility. Our ORBIT system now allows each customer to manage a host of services online including DNS changes, email changes, bandwidth monitoring, server monitoring, server reboots, hands and eyes requests, datacenter visits, managed reports, network availability and much more. With the recent shift to outsourcing, The Planet has responded with a wide range of administrative services from system engineers to network architects to certified database administrators. Our goal is to offer the most complete hosting package in the market place at very aggressive pricing.(外语编辑整理)
