Pragmatix Facilitates Oncolink Web Hosting
The University of Pennsylvania's Cancer Center established Oncolink in 1994 to help cancer
patients; families, health care professionals and the general public obtain accurate cancer
information. The Oncolink website, the Internet's first cancer resource, provides comprehensive
information on cancer treatments, cancer research advances and continuing medical education.
Business Issue
- Simplify IT hosting and website management
- Lower maintenance and support costs
- Deliver accurate and timely information
Business Results
- Secure web hosting
- Reduced IT costs and maintenance
- Reliable, managed service
When OncoLink went online, it required a secure, dependable and fully managed network environment
for their website. UPenn realized a secure hosted solution at an IBM facility managed by Pragmatix
including scheduled backups, server management and advanced monitoring. The transition from their
former hosting provider was seamless and achieved in less than three weeks.
"Pragmatix Gold is impressive!
It is a secure and reliable service... When we've needed
support, the Pragmatix team has always been very responsive
in resolving our issues quickly. We're extremely happy with
Pragmatix and highly recommend them to anyone who values
uptime and unprecedented levels of service"
