Hostopia to Acquire Uplinkearth

Hostopia.com Inc. said Monday it will buy the customer assets of New Jersey-based hosting services provider Luxmovera LLC, operating as Uplinkearth.

Uplinkearth accepted the undisclosed cash offer April 25.

The companies plan to migrate all users from Uplinkearth's data center facility to Hostopia's unified Web services platform by June 30. The companies said all users will continue to be served under the Uplinkearth brand, which will operate as a managed service by Hostopia.

"They (Uplinkearth)have approximately 12,500 small business subscribers, which we feel are very compatible with the Hostopia Web services platform,” said Colin Campbell, Hostopia CEO. “Our strategy will be to migrate all users and present them with many upgraded features and services. Over time, we will expect additional value-added services to be a logical upgrade path for many of these small businesses."
