Customer Spotlight: BandwidthBar.co.za
Bandwidth Bar is an ISP (Internet Service Provider) specialising in ADSL, targeted at both the end-user and the reseller market. Their reseller model allows clients to resell ADSL bandwidth while being charged on a usage basis. This means that while resellers can pre-sell ADSL bandwidth in GB blocks, the reseller will only be charged for actual bandwidth used in the month. Resellers are also given access to a customisable portal which enables them to structure and manage their accounts, while also empowering their end-user clients to top up their accounts online.
The Hetzner Connection
Bandwidth Bar has had a relationship with Hetzner for five years. "On deciding to offer hosting services to our clientele, we found it more effective to have Hetzner maintain our hosting infrastructure rather than setup our own. We trust Hetzner to manage the hosting infrastructure well," comments MD, Bradley Love.
The company makes use of Hetzner’s Managed Dedicated servers, relying on the service and support it receives from Hetzner. "Unreliable hosting will lead to a loss of faith in our services and eventually to a loss in customers," says Love. "Hetzner is ahead of the rest and have a good reputation in the market."
Hetzner’s konsoleH control panel assists Bandwidth Bar in administrating and managing their web infrastructure with ease, allowing them to focus on providing an excellent service to their customer base.
“True to its promise ‘Trusted in Hosting’ we as a company feel confident in knowing that our customers are well looked after when it comes to their hosting needs.” - Bradley Love, Managing Director (Brandwidth Bar)
