The TheDevTeam server is based in London on a highly resilient network and in a very secure environment. The server is owned and managed by us which means we have full control of all aspects of its operation. The hosting network provides a very high level of support to enable us to offer the best service to our clients – we pay a premium price and expect/get a premium service.
The hosting options includes:
- Very low contention rates on the processor because only our own sites are hosted – very fast for users.

- Backup. We have a full backup every week and an incremental backup every night.
- Physically secure – biometric access control.

- Urchin web statistics to enable tracking and analysis of web traffic.
