Answers to common questions

A. Infomaxim is a fully managed service - there's no updates to install, no security patches to worry about, no hosting to organise. Everything you need to get started is included - just point your domain name, add your security certificate and enter your payment gateway details.
Q. Can I install Infomaxim on my own server?
Infomaxim includes components which are installed across our hosting cloud on multiple servers including email broadcasting services, analytics processing engines, reporting tools and database storage.

Q. How safe is my data?
A. Your content, images and data are kept on RAID storage and backup up to secondary drives also located at the data centre (depending on your plan). A RAID uses many hard drives to store information more than once, so if one drive fails, it can be replaced with effecting your information. So, generally your data is very secure and safe. However, if you wish to get a copy of your informaiton to retain your own local backup, our reporting tools provide powerful export options so you can take a copy of your data in Excel, XML, CSV and various other formats.
Q. How often can I change my plan?
A. You can change your plan at any time, once per month. Our billing system will pro-rata the change based on the monthly usage of your old and new plans in the month you make the change.
