Partnership Overview
Who Summit Hosting is built for
Accounting firms and SMBs running QuickBooks, Sage, or other desktop ERP/accounting applications that want secure, managed, anywhere cloud access without managing servers.
Summit (formerly Summit Hosting; summithq.com) is a US-based managed infrastructure and application-hosting provider operating since 2004, headquartered in Atlanta, GA, with 22 data centers worldwide. It runs business-critical workloads two ways: full managed infrastructure (private cloud on VMware/Hyper-V/Proxmox, multi-tenant cloud, managed Kubernetes, colocation, bare-metal and dedicated GPU servers, Mac hosting, SAN/object storage, backup and DRaaS, networking and DDoS mitigation) and application/desktop hosting (QuickBooks, Sage, Drake, Lacerte and hundreds of Windows apps, plus DaaS). Summit differentiates on 100% uptime SLAs, 24/7 US-based human support, and SOC 2 Type 2 security with AES-256 encryption and DDoS mitigation built in. It has a fast-growing cloud repatriation ('cloud exit') practice, including a published case study migrating 37signals' production stack off AWS onto Summit-managed hardware.
