ServInt, a U.S. company founded in 1995 by Reed Caldwell, has been acquired by Leaseweb – one of the world’s largest hosting brands with global presence through its 19 data centers across four continents. Leaseweb USA, part of this group of independent companies that operate under the brand name Leaseweb, has acquired ServInt to substantially increase its footprint in the United States.
Leaseweb USA entered the United States market in 2011 and has since grown its presence both organically and through the acquisitions of Shore.net in 2013 and Nobis Technology Group in 2016. As a U.S. based company, ServInt entered the European market in June 2012 when it opened an international data center in Amsterdam. It represented ServInt’s first data center presence outside of North America.
The acquisition would support Leaseweb in its ambition to increase its footprint and customer base in the United States, as well as adding deep expertise in the “large and growing” third-party managed services market. Financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed.
Managed Hosting Services
As a managed hosting services provider for cloud IT operations, ServInt has its headquarters in Northern Virginia where Leaseweb USA also has its offices and one of their U.S. data centers located. In conjunction with its web hosting offerings, ServInt provides end-to-end solutions for public, private and hybrid cloud-based offerings. These include AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud solutions. Also, ServInt offers consultancy and IT extension services.
“We are delighted to welcome the ServInt team to Leaseweb to further strengthen our position in the USA,” said Lex Boost, CEO of Leaseweb USA. They hold a phenomenal track record on servicing and retaining their customers and their philosophy that a strong team makes a strong company fits ours seamlessly. With ServInt we added another building block to become a leading cloud services provider in the United States.”
Leaseweb USA has brought all ServInt employees on board. By adding the “very skilled” team to its staff, Leaseweb USA claims to have expanded its capabilities to create a value proposition for customers looking for managed IT services at a competitive price.
“Leaseweb and ServInt are very similar in many ways,” said Reed Caldwell, founder and CEO of ServInt. “In the mid-nineties we both saw the potential of the internet and decided to make a business out of it. Twenty plus years on we can look back on some great achievements. I’m proud that ServInt is now joining the Leaseweb family, giving clients access to the same experts and services they’re used to, whilst having the ability to take advantage of a strong, global operation in Leaseweb.”
