Conquering the world together: Layershift Jelastic PaaS expands to Asia

Asia, here we come !

Exciting things happen when Layershift and Jelastic combine forces. We listened to your needs and didn’t rest until we made it happen.  We are very pleased to announce that starting today we are bringing the world closer to you, by launching Jelastic PaaS in Singapore, Asia.

Layershift’s partnership with Jelastic started four years ago by offering the unique Jelastic multi language PaaS, on UK SSD servers. In 2015 we expanded our services and started offering it in US too. One year later, here we are, proudly announcing the availability of Jelastic platform in another new location (read official release note).

This makes Layershift the first and only hosting provider to offer the innovative Jelastic technology in Singapore, and as is the Layershift way we’re doing it on top of powerful SSD servers to give you the very best performance.

 

“We are raising the bar of Jelastic Cloud in Asia; we are the only ones offering pure SSD in the continent, and I’m delighted to be able to bring our strong service and performance levels to South East Asia.”

                                                                                                                                                                                      – Damien Ransome, Layershift’s Service Director 

 

And we are not stopping here, we promise. We are continuously working on exceeding your expectations so when you need reliability, power, high availability, topped up with outstanding support, you’ll know you can count on us to deliver right at your fingertips.   

 

Increased performance around the world

Phone support? Think again!

The power and clarity of the written word is undisputed. There’s a popular saying “if it’s not written down it doesn’t exist”. It’s widely used across many different aspects of business, and for very good reason; explaining complex issues in written form forces a certain clarity that cannot be delivered orally.

Imagine that you need help with a technical problem. Explaining the steps in writing is the perfect way to get the information across clearly and unambiguously. When mistakes and misunderstandings cause delays and cost money, this is the time when you definitely need to be as clear and unambiguous as possible. It’s the perfect medium for hosting service technical support.

Providing all support via email / helpdesk tickets has led Layershift’s support to be formally recognised as offering the best in Western Europe for the last 2 years running (2014 and 2015).

It’s clear that our support systems serve our customers’ needs extremely well. Even so, from time to time we get a pre-sales request asking why we don’t offer technical support via phone. We understand the apprehension; if you’re used to struggling through with other hosting companies who often take days to respond, only to provide inadequate assistance even when it finally arrives – the immediacy of phone support appears compelling. Even though waiting on hold wastes your time, and talking to the wall yields no results, it all seems like a good idea at the time… but truth is it’s not. Not at all. Here’s why:

Why Layershift Support is winning

The results are in, and what an amazing year it was! Great customer support is not just an aspiration at Layershift, it’s our passion – the core strand of our DNA. It completely defines us as a company, as a group of talented individuals, as a team.

For others, providing support for their product or service is an inconvenient cost. An overhead. A headache they have to live with. Most of their time is spent dreaming up ways to reduce the support burden.

The results are plain to see. How many support departments did you deal with during 2015? How many actually gave you a good experience? I’m willing to bet the majority spun you round in circles so many times they made you wish that you’d never even asked! This is what happens when support is not central to a company’s ethos. When support is a burden, support is bad.
