📄 Editorial Review

Axxess is a South African internet and hosting provider founded in 1997 by Franco Barbalich. What began as a small website-hosting and web-design outfit evolved into a broader ISP with dial-up, Wi-Fi hotspots, mobile data, and eventually one of the larger privately owned networks in the country. Leadership today still reflects the original vision of offering simple, affordable connectivity with a strong service ethos, backed by a 24×7 technical support call centre.

They operate across both connectivity and hosting. On the connectivity side, they sell ADSL, fibre (prepaid and monthly), LTE/5G mobile data, routers/devices, VoIP, and value-adds like backup power and range extenders. On the hosting side, the portfolio covers Linux shared hosting, WordPress hosting, VPS and Managed VPS, email-only hosting, and domain registration/parking. Hosting stacks emphasise SSD storage, unlimited traffic on shared tiers, and common app installers.

Shared and WordPress hosting target small sites and blogs needing quick deployment, with SitePad and Softaculous for one-click installs; WordPress servers are tuned with LiteSpeed and LS Cache. VPS plans add IPv4/IPv6, monthly backups, and a menu of control panels and server tools (cPanel, DirectAdmin, InterWorx, Webuzo, Softaculous, KernelCare, Imunify360, JetBackup, CloudLinux variants). Managed VPS layers on full management, weekly backups, and ongoing optimisation. Email-only hosting focuses on simple, branded mailboxes with AutoSSL and anti-spam. Domains can be registered, parked, or pointed with basic DNS controls.

The corporate story also highlights network expansion: multiple IPC connections per region and five international routes for lower latency, alongside the goal of keeping pricing competitive on a self-operated backbone. That said, hosting documentation is lighter on infrastructure specifics than many enterprise-focused providers.
