The following companies were deactivated from Review Signal today:
SoftLayer (acquired by IBM) which ultimately had a 69% rating.
WebFaction (acquired by GoDaddy via Host Europe Group via Paragon Internet) which ultimately had a 73% rating.
WebSynthesis (acquired by WPEngine) which ultimately had a 61% rating.
WiredTree (acquired by LiquidWeb) which ultimately had a 69% rating.
I often keep companies listed for a while after acquisition because people still search for them and there is some historical value. These companies have been acquired a while ago and that value is pretty minimal at this point. Thus, they are being retired off the site and no longer listed.
