[frame align=”left”] [/frame]HostPapa has announced a partnership with Softaculous Ltd., developer of the Softaculous Auto Installer, which offers one-click installation for PHP, PERL and JavaScript applications. HostPapa’s partnership with Softaculous will allow their hosting clients to use the Auto Installer on their hosting accounts, and enjoy easy and quick installation of any of the 275+ scripts in the Softaculous scripts library.
“The Addition of Softaculous will offer our valued customers variety of updated apps,”stated Sylvain Party, Senior Vice President of Business Development at HostPapa, Inc. “Softaculous offers a better, faster and more elegant interface and has more features as compared to other products we evaluated. Softaculous also allows users to access ratings, reviews, and software demos which helps them to choose a suitable application based on their requirements,” Sylvain Patry added.
Softaculous takes care of the entire installation process from copying files to creating database which makes the process hassle free for the users. Most of you by now are surely familiar with it – and I myself have been making use of it for quiet some time now. In-fact it’s one of the pre-sale questions I ask when looking for a hosting company. It’s a great new addition to Hostpapa’s services, and I’m glad they finally set this up.
I definitely feel like this is a long time overdue. Most other companies have long had Fantastico & Softaculous installed for their clients. Good thing Hostpapa finally joined the bandwagon. I’ll have to keep them in mind the next time I am shopping for a new host.
