The Planet Offers Hosting Resellers New Bundles, Discounts

The Planet (Booth #1326), a provider of on-demand IT infrastructure, is announcing at the Channel Partners Conference & Expo that it has created new server bundles optimized for resellers, including key software and upgrade options at reduced prices. And it also now offers resellers volume discounts up to 20 percent depending on their monthly order value.

The company has assembled high-value bundles specifically designed to meet the needs of Web hosting resellers. Bundles are built on high-quality Dell servers loaded with either the Intel Xeon 3450 or the Dual Xeon 5520. Included on each server are RAID, cPanel control panels, KVM-over-IP, and 5tbps of bandwidth, along with increased RAM and hard drive capacity. Bundles are offered at up to 38 percent off list pricing, with additional discounts provided for registered resellers.

Registered resellers who bill up to $2,500 per month receive 10 percent discounts on new orders, while those who bill more than $2,500 and up to $5,000 receive 20 percent discounts. Resellers who bill more than $5,000 are eligible for special bids.

“Reseller partners are core to our business, and our goal is to help them succeed by offering the most competitive prices, comprehensive tools and support in the hosting industry,” said Tom Blair, The Planet’s vice president of global sales. “With new bulk-order discounts and server bundles expressly optimized for the reseller community, partners will have even more reasons to build their businesses with The Planet.”
