VPS hosting sits in the intersection of shared hosting and dedicated servers. Unlike shared hosting, VPS is an isolated environment with dedicated resources, which means you have more processing power and your site loads faster. VPS is best suited for applications that have seasonal traffic spikes or RAM-heavy/CPU-intensive applications. If you are developing a new application that has a complex database and you’re not sure how many visits you’ll get, VPS hosting is the affordable option to start with before you upgrade to a dedicated server.

Shared hosting is like an apartment building – lots of residents in the same building, sharing the same resources, but also very affordable. Dedicated servers are like having your state-of-the-art house, where you’ll pay a lot more, but you also don’t have to share the space or utilities with anyone. VPS is in the middle, like a townhouse, where you have a few residents in the same building, but you each have dedicated resources and are in full control of your home. It costs less than a dedicated server, but still gives you much of the same benefits.

All of our VPS plans include: 99.9% uptime guarantee, free snapshot, resource monitoring, 1 dedicated IP, root and SSH access, and FTP accounts. You can call our support team at +1 (480) 624-2500 if you need more IPs.

No. VPS hosting avoids bad neighbor effect by offering a more isolated environment where you get dedicated RAM and storage, along with allocated CPUs.

With our VPS(cPanel/Plesk), you get the option of CentOS 7 and Windows 2016.

A snapshot enables you to quickly create an image of your server that can be restored at that point in time. This might sound similar to backup, but snapshot files are stored on iiiHOST’s cloud environment; backup files are not.
