Discover new WebdeReserve features for simplifying your event management

1月

4日

We’re thrilled to unveil new enhancements to WebdeReserve, our powerful reservation system, designed to make managing events smoother and more flexible. Here’s what’s new:

1. Streamlined Application Cancellation Settings

Flexibility matters, and with our new application cancellation feature, you’re in control.

Now, when creating or editing an event, you can decide whether participants can cancel their reservations. If enabled, participants receive a "Cancel Registration" button in their Registration Confirmation and Reminder Emails, empowering them to manage their attendance directly.

How to Set It Up:

a) Log in and select Add Event.
b) Fill out the required fields.
c) Choose Enable or Disable under Cancellation By Participants.

d) If enabled, specify the Cancellation Deadline.
※ Deadlines align with the event’s time zone.
※ Cancellations cannot extend beyond the event’s end date/time.
e) Save your event, and you’re good to go!

2. Customizable Participant's Company Requirement Field

Better participant data means better engagement. You now have the flexibility to configure whether the Company Name is required depending only our event needs.

Required: Ensure participants provide their company name.
Optional: Make it visible but not mandatory.
Unnecessary: Hide the field entirely for a simpler form.

Important Notes:
※ Once an application is submitted, this setting cannot be modified.
※ If you adjust the field after embedding the form, remember to re-embed to maintain functionality.

These features are designed to give you greater control over your events while enhancing the user experience for your participants.

What’s New Newsletter Vol. 253 “Why Businesses Need Reliable Web Hosting”

1月

3日

When you break it down, a website is just a bunch of files (images, text, code, etc.) that come together to create a website. However, for a website to connect to the Internet, it needs to rent space, so to speak, on a powerful computer that is always connected to the Internet called a server. This is what’s called web hosting. Today, websites connect companies to their customers, and a reliable web hosting provider ensures your website is always available 24/7, making it crucial for businesses today.

Luckily, we here at PSPINC have decades of experience helping businesses with all of their web hosting needs! We custom-created our Dreamersi web hosting in 1996 so we could customize our offering to our customers.

With Dreamersi web hosting, our customers get:

A free domain
A data backup
10GB of web storage
Domain Validation (DV) SSL certificate (keeps your website safe!)
WebdeXpress (our exclusive web builder)
InforMakers (our web form builder - an $89/year value!)

Get started by heading over to our Dreamersi page on our website and selecting the Web Hosting option.

Why You Might Need VPS Hosting

12月

25日

VPS stands for Virtual Private Servers and acts as a data and web file storage operated by a cloud or web hosting provider. Using virtualization technology, VPS hosting splits a single physical machine into multiple private server environments where they share the resources. When compared to shared and dedicated hosting, VPS hosting sits in between the two in terms of performance levels, flexibility, and control.

What is VPS Hosting?

There are three main types of VPS hosting:

Unmanaged/Self-Managed VPS Hosting: A hands-on approach that requires technical expertise or in-house resources to manage server-related tasks. With unmanaged VPS hosting, the business owner takes care of all server responsibilities while the hosting provider manages the physical server and its availability, making it more suitable for established businesses with the necessary IT skills.
Managed VPS Hosting: A hands-off approach that lets business owners focus fully on other business tasks while the hosting provider handles server-related responsibilities like core updates, maintenance, and software installation, so business owners can focus fully on other business tasks.
Semi-Managed VPS Hosting: The middle ground between other options, with the basic unmanaged hosting provided and the added services of core software installation and support.

You should consider switching to VPS hosting if you need to:

Handle more website traffic: Reduce page load times and wait times as your website traffic grows since it can handle a higher volume of requests compared to shared hosting.
Customize applications: Gain more control over your server environment to install custom software and integrate better with existing programs like CRM systems.
Reduce server errors: Enhance your website’s performance as you add more content or complex functionality, as VPS hosting can handle compute-heavy websites better because they’re not competing with other sites for processing power.

Benefits of VPS Hosting

There are many reasons why VPS hosting is preferable. For example, VPS hosting provides:

Protection from resource-intensive attacks
Extra security through the addition of firewalls, antivirus, and other software measures
Fast and reliable performance due to having your own bandwidth
Round-the-clock support focused full-time on server maintenance and reduced downtime
Optimized environment for performance and security

If you’re looking to switch your website to VPS hosting, we have just what you need with our new VPS plans. With nightly backups, 24/7 NOC monitoring, and a 99.99% SLA guaranteed time, rest assured your website will be well taken care of with us. Get started by signing up for one of our new VPS plans.
