Internet Group Selects Comodo's H-Sphere Solution

Comodo, through their Web Hosting and server automation division PSOFT, announces that Brasil Telecom has selected Comodo's H-Sphere solution to provide web hosting automation for its new line of internet services dedicated to small and medium size businesses, called iG Empresas. The multi-year deal is seen as a critical enabling technology for iG to be able to generate and fully leverage revenue from their large and growing base of 40.000 web host customers.

Brasil Telecom Group is a telecommunications and web hosting operator. Brasil Telecom Group offers a full range of services: local fixed-line telecommunications, domestic and international long distance fixed-line telecommunications, mobile telecommunications, data transmission, data center and Internet services, which provide a full range of converging services with a unified vision and mutual synergy. iG is the largest internet access provider of Latin America, reaching 28% of the Brazilian residences that has computers and was the first free Internet access provider in Brasil. Today, beyond free access and broadband access, value-added services offered include e-mail, hosting, multimedia content, Wi-fi, among others. Approximately 1 million subscribers pay for services, including broadband access and value-added services.

Internet Group Ltda chose H-Sphere over rival solutions primarily because of the ease with which it can be integrated into iG's existing, well established infrastructure. H-Sphere's built in billing system and multi-currency support allowed iG to provision its very large local customer base without recourse to a third party solution outside of the control panel. H-Sphere's multi-language support and almost infinite scalability also were key criterion in H-Sphere's selection by iG.
