Corporate Basics:

Tenzing was founded in 1998 as Canada Web Hosting. After many years of rapid growth, the company was re-branded as Tenzing in January 2009 to better communicate its award winning approach to hosting business-critical Internet applications and reach a broader market. Tenzing is a private company with 70+ employees and financial backing from Toronto's Eventi Capital Partners. Tenzing has customer service centers in Kelowna, BC and Toronto, Ontario and datacenters in Canada's primary NAPs: 151 Front, Toronto and the Harbour Centre, Vancouver.

Corporate Objective:

To be a great service company and trusted partner delivering enterprise-class managed services to companies with business-critical Internet applications.

The Inspiration:

The inspiration for Tenzing, the company, is the famous Tibetan Sherpa, Tenzing Norgay. Tenzing and Sir Edmund Hillary were the first to summit Mount Everest. With Hillary, Tenzing was considered the strongest climber on the British expedition. The two men were partners each contributing different skills at different times to get to the top.

Tenzing had all the exceptional attributes of an elite mountaineer:

  • Extremely trustworthy
  • Unmatched experience
  • Highly skilled
  • Passionate and incredibly determined
  • Always an extremely positive attitude
  • Supreme physical endurance

Tenzing and his partnership with Hillary capture the essence of what Tenzing, the company, is about. Tenzing is passionate about being a trusted partner, providing expert skills, experience, determination and willingness to do the heavy lifting to help customers achieve their business objectives.

Service Philosophy:

  • Great solutions begin and end with great people
  • Everyone needs a trusted partner to conquer the biggest challenges
  • Great service companies do the right thing at the right time, every time
  • You need passion and process to make extraordinary service ordinary
  • To improve continually, you need to measure continually

Tenzing's service philosophy translates into a comprehensive "Summit with Tenzing" customer service model. This comprehensive, step-by-step approach is designed to minimize the risk and maximize the value delivered to customers by their business-critical Internet applications. By way of these steps, Tenzing identifies the customer's objectives and capabilities, plans the best route for them, and then guides them to their objective.
