This article gives an overview of our VPS and dedicated servers. Both are managed hosting solutions that are highly configurable and built to perform.
A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a self-contained hosting environment. A single server may host more than one VPS but each VPS is isolated. That means that your VPS has its own operating system and IP address. And of course, the VPS can also be configured exactly how you want.
The main advantage of a VPS over standard hosting is that your website doesn’t share resources with other sites on the server. In other words, you have full control over the environment.
We offer five VPS plans, as shown in the below pricing table. Please contact us if you would like more information about the hosting packages.

Dedicated hosting goes one step further. As the name suggests, the entire server is dedicated to your website(s). A dedicated server is build and configured to your requirements and comes with a number of important benefits, such as instant fail-over on our VMware cloud.
Every site is different, so we get to know our clients and their needs before recommending a solution. However, all our solutions include full backups, management and firewalling. And, with our friendly support team you are never more than a phone call away from an expert, day or night. Please see our Dedicated Servers page for more information, or contact us to discuss your requirements.
Our VPS and dedicated hosting solutions are fully managed. That means that we don’t just provide the server; we also make sure that the server is secure and that regular backups are made. We actively monitor the server and our support team is always available to help with any issues that may occur.
Please see our Managed Hosting + page for more information about how we go the extra mile.
