iWeb
- From the company
iWeb has been providing reliable and scalable Internet hosting infrastructure solutions
with its shared web hosting, dedicated servers, managed hosting and colocation services
for over a decade.
Founded by Martin Leclair and Eric Chouinard in October 1996 and headquartered in
Montreal since 1998, the public company (TSX-V: IWB) has enjoyed a steady growth
since its inception, currently employing more than 170 talented hosting specialists
and operating three data centers in the greater Montreal area.
At the beginning, iWeb originally operated under the "Formation et Technologies
Formatek" name. It started as a general Internet related services company to later
focus on Web Hosting. It is in 1998 and 1999, as a result of mergers and partnerships
with SMEs specializing in Internet solutions (Formatek, Infonet Services, WebDépart
and JBCréation), that iWeb reoriented itself towards Internet hosting and server
management to make it its specialty.
Operating in the heart of the Old Montreal from 2000 to 2004, close to the Multimedia
City, iWeb survived the dot com bubble burst and was growing beyond all expectations.
At the end of 2003, in addition to signing an agreement to enter the stock market,
iWeb acquired a 10,000 square foot building and moved its headquarters into its
spacious new office. Only two years later, after the acquisition of the Hosting
Division of iNet-Interactif/Funio, in February of 2006, iWeb acquired a new 20,000
square foot building and built its second datacenter in St-Leonard on the Island
of Montreal. In October 2007, iWeb announced the opening of a third data center
of 29,000 square feet, in Nuns' Island near Montreal.
Today iWeb is one of the largest web hosts and Internet hosting infrastructures
provider in Canada. iWeb's operations centres shelter a total of more
than 59,000 square feet of latest generation data center and office floor space
in Montreal and offers a wide variety of first class web hosting and server management
services. IWeb is recognized for the quality of its customer service and its highly
competitive prices.
