The LogicBoxes & Skenzo Brussels Beerfest

In what has now become a tradition at every ICANN Meet, LogicBoxes and Skenzo hosted an unforgettable event at the ICANN Brussels Meet.

What better way to party in Brussels, than over some of its world-famous beer. And the world renowned Delirium Cafe was just the place to do this in style.

Bhavin (our CEO and Founder) and Divyank (our President & CEO of Skenzo), along with the who’s-who of the industry, from the top Registrars, Registries and eminent members from the internet community, joined us for The Brussels Beerfest.

It was an evening for good food, good conversations and of course some really great beer. The highlight was the Beer Tasting, where The Delirium Cafe showed everyone exactly why it holds the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest variety of beer (over 2004!) commercially available at any place.

Here are some pictures from the event:

Free Email with every Domain and cPanel now available at LogicBoxes

LogicBoxes announced that it has upped its value proposition to all registrars on its platform with the introduction of a free 1 GB email account with every domain name and the launch of cPanel for Linux hosting.

The free 1GB email account with every domain purchase extends the list of LogicBoxes free services, which already includes privacy protection, DNS, domain forwarding and mail forwarding.

“Email is often seen as one of the most essential services, and this LogicBoxes release will help partners create a stickier customer base through the sale of free allied products” added Turakhia. “We want our partners to become a one-stop-shop for their customers’ every need and this is yet another step in providing the most comprehensive web offering.”

The LogicBoxes Linux hosting plan will now be available with the industry standard control panel, cPanel. The plan is also inclusive of the widely adopted Fantastico one click applications that allow customers to install feature-rich tools on their web space.

cPanel has become a popular choice amongst multiple hosting companies with its multi-lingual and intuitive interfaces, amidst other stellar features. This move also reaffirms the growing trend of industry standardization of commercial control panels amongst web hosting companies.

“cPanel is the most recognized and globally adopted control panel for Linux hosting” said Bhavin Turakhia, CEO and Founder of LogicBoxes. “This upgrade will allow our partners to offer panels that their customers are comfortable navigating, while retaining our stellar price point of $2.49 monthly. It’s a win-win situation.”

Turakhia also disclosed that the company is looking at adding Plesk for Windows Hosting shortly.

.CO Internet Partners With LogicBoxes For .CO Domain Management

.CO Internet S.A.S. (www.COinternet.co) proudly announced the successful transition of local .CO domains from the Universidad de los Andes (UniAndes) to the company’s own Registrar platform in partnership with LogicBoxes.

.CO Internet is the Registry operator and the driving force behind the .CO top level domain (TLD) launch, which is shaping up to be the most highly anticipated TLD of recent times.  In addition to acting as the Registry, .CO Internet has taken on the responsibility of managing the 27,000 existing 3rd level .CO domains including the restricted .org.co, .edu.co, .gov.co and .mil.co domains on behalf of UniAndes.

”Working under incredibly tight timelines, and with a significant amount of custom development work required, we knew that finding the right partner would be critical to our success” said Nicolai Bezsonoff, Chief Operations Officer for .CO Internet. “We evaluated various other options, including building a platform in-house. As it turned out, LogicBoxes suited our requirements perfectly. It was very reassuring to have an experienced partner who we could rely on to ensure for a safe, orderly data migration.”

The .CO restricted domains database now sits on the LogicBoxes infrastructure and the migration was completed with zero downtime to existing customers. These domain owners will have access to a completely automated and real-time domain management experience, including the availability of Spanish IDN domain names.

“We were confident that this would be well within our technical expertise, given the extensive processes we’ve handled for Registries like .MN, .ME and .COOP in the past” said Bhavin Turakhia, CEO and Founder of LogicBoxes. “Working in this niche space has helped us hone our expertise and we’re happy to have had the opportunity to extend it to multiple Registries.”

.CO Internet is also using the readymade infrastructure provided by LogicBoxes to better support its customers. “Leveraging the flexible multi-lingual and multi-currency support of the LogicBoxes platform, we are now able to offer registrants versatile, localized control panels to suit their needs,” added Bezsonoff.

Turakhia further added “We’re delighted to have partnered with .CO Internet for this promising TLD and foresee a wide level of global adoption for .CO domains.”

With its many connotations and global identity, there is an eager line of Registrants awaiting 21st June, when second level .CO registrations open with the Landrush.
