📄 Editorial Review

IT-SMART.BIZ is a Cambodian web hosting, software development, and IT services company based in Siem Reap, Cambodia. The business was established in 2007 by four young entrepreneurs with complementary technology skills, with Sun Sopheary identified among the co-founders. Over the years, the company has expanded from IT consulting and implementation for small and medium-sized businesses into hosting, domains, web development, mobile applications, software integration, and managed IT services.

The company has grown into a broader technology provider with more than 20 professionals, over 500 completed projects, and customers or projects spanning more than 20 countries. Hosting remains one of its most accessible services for smaller businesses and individual website owners, while software development and managed IT services extend the offering toward more complex commercial requirements.

The hosting portfolio includes Personal Hosting, Business Hosting, Reseller Hosting, Managed VPS, Domain Registration, SSL Certificates, Website Builder tools, Email Hosting features, WordPress support, and web development services. This creates a practical progression from a small personal website through reseller operations and managed virtual servers.

Personal Hosting is the entry-level shared hosting range. Budget Plan costs $3 per month and includes 2 GB SSD storage, 20 GB bandwidth, one FTP account, ten email accounts, one MySQL database, free SSL, LiteSpeed, and cPanel. Small Plan costs $4 per month and increases the allocation to 4 GB storage, 40 GB bandwidth, two FTP accounts, 20 email accounts, and two databases. Basic Plan costs $5 per month with 6 GB storage, 60 GB traffic, three FTP accounts, 30 email accounts, and three MySQL databases.

The Personal Hosting environment provides considerably more functionality than the small storage allocations might suggest. Customers receive cPanel, one-click WordPress installation, a drag-and-drop website builder, free domain transfer, spam protection, multiple PHP versions, Git support, SSH access, cron jobs, and free SSL certificates. The platform uses Intel Xeon processors, NVMe storage, CloudLinux, LiteSpeed Web Server, Redis caching, HTTP/3, web application firewall protection, and DDoS mitigation. Integration with Cloudflare CDN is also available.

Business Hosting increases the available resources and provides a choice between United States and Singapore datacenter locations. Medium Plan starts at $6 per month with 10 GB SSD storage, 100 GB bandwidth, five FTP accounts, unlimited email accounts, and five MySQL databases. Large Plan costs $10 per month with 20 GB SSD, 200 GB bandwidth, ten FTP accounts, unlimited email, and ten databases. Gold Plan costs $15 per month with 35 GB SSD, 350 GB bandwidth, and unlimited FTP accounts, email accounts, and databases within the platform's applicable resource policies.

Business Hosting includes one-click application deployment, WordPress LiteSpeed Cache, free SSL, cPanel, LiteSpeed, CDN integration, and DDoS protection. The Singapore option is especially useful for Cambodian and Southeast Asian websites that want regional hosting, while the United States option gives customers an alternative location for audiences concentrated farther west.

Reseller Hosting is designed for web agencies, developers, and hosting businesses that need multiple individual cPanel accounts. Business Reseller costs $30 per month and provides 100 GB storage, 1,000 GB bandwidth, unlimited email and databases, and up to 50 cPanel accounts. Professional costs $50 per month with 200 GB storage, 2,000 GB bandwidth, and up to 100 cPanel accounts. Gold costs $70 per month with 300 GB storage, 3,000 GB bandwidth, and up to 150 cPanel accounts.

Reseller customers receive cPanel and WHM, white-label operation, free installation, and priority support. This allows agencies to separate customer accounts and administer them independently rather than placing many unrelated websites inside a single shared hosting account.

The Managed VPS range starts at $55 per month. VPS OVZ-1G includes 1 GB RAM, one CPU core, 40 GB SSD storage, and 1,000 GB transfer. OVZ-2G costs $75 per month with 2 GB RAM, two CPU cores, 60 GB SSD, and 2,000 GB transfer. OVZ-3G costs $95 per month and includes 4 GB RAM, three CPU cores, 80 GB SSD, and 3,000 GB transfer.

Although the plan names retain the "OVZ" designation, the VPS infrastructure uses KVM virtualization, enterprise NVMe storage, RAID-10 data protection, Intel Xeon processors, DDoS protection, 10 Gbps network connectivity, Tier-4 datacenter infrastructure, and 24/7 network monitoring. cPanel and WHM are included together with installation, making these packages more suitable for customers who want a managed environment instead of an unmanaged low-cost VPS.

Domain registration covers both international and Cambodian extensions. A .com domain costs $15 per year, while .net and .org are also $15 per year, .co.uk costs $12, and .co costs $29. Cambodian .com.kh registration costs $70 for the initial term, with a $60 renewal price. Domain transfers are supported through the same customer platform.

Commercial SSL certificates are available separately. Positive SSL costs $36 per year, Comodo SSL costs $60 per year, and Wildcard SSL costs $99 per year. These products include domain validation, 2048-bit signatures, a stated $250,000 warranty, and free installation. Shared hosting already includes free SSL, so the paid certificates are mainly relevant to customers requiring a specific commercial certificate product.

IT-SMART extends well beyond conventional hosting. Its technical services include web development, mobile application development, e-commerce development, CMS development, custom software, UI/UX work, system integration, and managed IT services. Its development and cloud technology stack includes React.js, Node.js, Python, Java, Docker, Kubernetes, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, AWS, and Microsoft Azure.

Managed services cover infrastructure administration, security management, monitoring, help desk support, system maintenance, incident response, backup and recovery, and performance optimization. This makes the company useful for Cambodian businesses that prefer to keep hosting, software development, cloud integration, and ongoing technical support under one provider.

The website is modern and straightforward, with hosting and related services priced in USD. The main website operates in English, and no multi-language/localized version exists.
