MaximumASP, a Microsoft Gold Certified Provider of web hosting and managed IT services opened a new server operations center to accommodate expansion needs. The state of the art “SOC” occupies 1,500 square feet of the 11,000 square foot corporate offices.

We are delighted to provide our customers proactive options for monitoring the health of their servers in this fully-equipped up to date environment,” Lewis added.
