“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language and next year’s words await another voice.” 

T.S. Eliot

With only a few days remaining in 2017, I would like to take a moment to reflect and show my sincere appreciation and gratitude for everyone who has helped make 2017 a great year for Hostway, especially our customers, our partners, local communities, and the dedicated and talented Hostway team members worldwide. Our continued success is a result of all your dedication and hard work in our mission to provide secure and reliable cloud solutions to business enterprises across the globe.
Much of that success is evident in the accomplishments and growth seen in our organization during 2017. We’ve expanded our operations with new offices in San Antonio and Chicago, and we added our tenth international, world-class data center in Austin. We have added to our portfolio of products numerous security solutions, as well as Managed Support for the AWS Public Cloud, and VMWare. All this is so we may be able to continue to serve our thousands of business and enterprise customers around the world by delivering the best and most secure hosting and multi-cloud managed services.
Which brings me to the T.S. Eliot quote at the beginning of this message. 2017 was not without its faults and missteps. They will happen and we should not allow the possibility of failure to cloud our possibility of success. Last year has happened, so let those words, those actions, remain in the past. Next year’s words, next year’s actions, that is the new voice, and Hostway embraces that new voice and that onward path to continuing to serve customers and earn their trust in our every action so that we can really earn the title of “Trusted Cloud.”
Let the new year bring new challenges, new friendships, and new success. We welcome them and we will continue to broaden our capacity to provide secure, state-of-the-art cloud solutions for our customers new and existing. If you’re an existing customer, thank you again!  You are the reason we are here.  Always feel free to let us know how we’re doing. If you are considering Hostway as a partner, please don’t hesitate to contact us and let us know how we can help.
May this blessed holiday season, and the new 2018 year bring peace and prosperity to you and your loved ones!
Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!

At Hostway, we talk a lot about trusted relationships. We pride ourselves in earning the trust of our customers to manage and secure their mission-critical data and applications. But trust doesn’t just come in the form of our services and expertise. We also want to earn the trust of our local communities and show our support by taking part in the work they do to provide for the less fortunate.
This year, our teams in Austin, and San Antonio, Texas, as well as Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada joined their respective communities to spread the love and holiday cheer.
The Vancouver team has an annual tradition of attending the Annual Christmas Wish Breakfast to support a toy drive in cooperation with the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau. Volunteers collected new, unwrapped toys, as well as made cash donations, and delivered them to the breakfast. Naturally, this toy drive is meant for the kids, but we have to admit, some of those toys were pretty cool.
Meanwhile, the Austin and San Antonio Hostway team members helped disassemble computers that were donated to Goodwill. The parts will be used to rebuild refurbished computers for use in Goodwill community programs such as workforce advancement and the career technical academy.
We know the power of unity and in serving our community. We are always looking for new opportunities to give back to the communities we serve. We encourage all of our customers and partners to find creative ways to make a difference in their own community, not just for the holidays, but all year round. Now, enjoy some of the great photos from our volunteer work.
Happy holidays everyone!
