January 28, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Software as a service delivery provider OpSource (opsource.net) announced on Monday that electronic discovery and litigation software provider LitSoft (litsoftinc.com) has chosen OpSource On-Demand to deliver LitScope, an electronically stored information review platform.
LitSoft says that LitScope will enable its law firm and corporate clients to use any mainstream Web browser, running on any operating system, to access their documents from anywhere there is an Internet connection is available. Some features include full Unicode support, search-based batching and a review management dashboard.
"Several companies met our most basic requirements, including a data center that was local to our northern Virginia office and provided SAS 70 Type II compliance," says Steve Jreige, CEO of LitSoft. "But what really separated OpSource was some of the more specialized services it offers, especially around-the-clock support for our end-users, which was very critical to us. And OpSource offered a breadth of technical expertise that far surpasses its managed hosting provider competitors."
OpSource's CEO, Treb Ryan, will be joining Lila Tretikov, chief information officer for SugarCRM, in a panel entitled "Cloud Computing and SaaS" at the Web 2.0 Conference and Expo on January 29.
Last week, OpSource announced the keynote speakers and panelists for its third annual SaaS Summit, held February 27 to 29 at The Westin St. Francis in San Francisco, California.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
