EPI Internet Direct rose to recognition under Ross Chappell through innovative hosting solutions and implementation services for many of the products and technologies the company hosts for. In 2002, the company made it to our list as one of the few companies worldwide that offer pure breed Microsoft and ASP hosting services. 

Nevertheless with more and more web hosting providers cramping to offer Windows hosting services on the web these days, finding a truly reliable host that offers pure Windows solutions and ASP.NET can be a difficult task. Here we have made it simple for you to find one that offers top-notch ASP.NET services and again, EPI Internet Direct made it into our list this year. 

EPI Internet Direct is the hosting services division of Electric People International, providing clients with a complete range of web site and high-end application hosting services. The company is a Microsoft Certified Partner, Microsoft authorized Application Service Provider and member of the Microsoft Windows Telecommunications Alliance Program. The company offers ASP.NET web site hosting services designed to support web sites created for the Microsoft .NET hosted environment. This allows its users to develop web sites that can be supported by ASP, ASP.NET, HTML, DHTML, VB .NET, C#, C++ and other .NET compatible languages. 

Most of the features available in the hosting plans look almost flawless except for the amount of bandwidth transfer each plan can offer. The amount of bandwidth transfer in the Entry Level hosting plan is way too small for today's website operation. Still, the company manage to face challenges in proving that it can turn a profit with hosting services growing year after year.
