Hey would you be able to send the complete hosting feature, so we could alert our customers.

The features are a very important factor to consider when choosing a web host. When you want to operate an online business, you will need your website to be up and running most of the time; downtimes can mean big losses for you. Thus, make sure that your web host is able to provide at least 99% uptime.
