Virtual Server Questions

DedicatedA VPS is an alternative to running a dedicated server using hardware virtualisation technology.
• The server can be scaled up or down instantly and without downtime
• It is more power efficient than a dedicated server
• Can be instantly migrated to a dedicated server
• Costs less than a dedicated server - from just £19.99 per month

 

Why is it so reliable?
We use the latest Xen Virtualisation platform. Each VPS is monitored 24/7/365. If there is a harware failure the VPS can be moved instantly to another server.

Why is it so much cheaper than a dedicated server?
The majority of dedicated servers are greatly under-used. Having looked at our own clients' servers we discovered that a great deal of their servers were running at less than 20% capacity. That can add up to quite a waste of money and power.

We also offer as standard all of the following:
24/7/365 server monitoring: Our support team monitors your server day and night.
Remote Reboot facility: All of our virtual servers have remote power cycling as standard.
Support Tickets: We operate a 24/7 support ticketing operation so you can contact us any time for help.

Do I have full control over my Virtual Server?
You have full root or Administrator access just like a dedicated server.

What happens when I need to upgrade my Virtual Server?
After ordering your upgrade (be that more RAM, hard drive space, more CPU cores etc.) we simply make a small change to our Virtual Server controller. Your machine then reboots at a convenient time and your Virtual Server will be upgraded and back on line, usually within 2-3 minutes.

One more thing - how long do I have to sign up for?
Glad you asked. All you sign up for is a 30 day rolling contract. No messing about.

Ok, I've heard enough. How soon can I get a VPS?
Well the good news is that like most things concerning our Virtual Dedicated Servers, it's quick, usually within the hour.
