About

Squarehost was formed in 2010 following the frustration of witnessing “developers” and “programmers” letting down customers through a lack of understanding, both of their customers’ requirements and how they should be implemented. Often, off-the-shelf pieces of software were utilised, modified and charged at exorbitant rates, whilst not hitting the mark in terms of functionality or value. In addition, Squarehost’s wide range of expertise meant that they saw an opportunity to not only build high-quality software, but also deploy, host, manage and maintain it throughout its lifecycle.

Ian Shurmer and James Edmonds, both directors of Squarehost, met while working together in previous development roles prior to 2010.

With a philosophy of building modern, standards-compliant, beautiful, bespoke, but reasonably priced software, whilst offering a truly complete service, from conception, through implementation, to deployment and maintenance, Squarehost has grown purely from it’s good reputation and honest work. We are proud of our customers’ successes with the websites and software we have built, managed or hosted, and even prouder of the long standing relationships we have maintained with them over the last decade. Indeed, some of our fully bespoke systems are in-use as vital parts of several global multi-million turnover businesses. Two detailed case studies will be forthcoming on our website shortly.

Our range of services has expanded over the last few years, and we are proud to offer not only development and hosting services, but also customised E-Mail, telephony/communications, backup and disaster recovery solutions, and domain registration services. We are one of the most competitively priced independent Domain Registrars in the UK, and are fully accredited by both Nominet, and as a GTLD (Generic Top Level Domain) registrar.
