Managed VPS Hosting with Flexible Resources

Managed VPS Hosting FAQs

• What is managed VPS hosting?

  Managed VPS hosting allows you to run multiple websites on your own server without the hassle of worrying about technical stuff. You still operate the website hosting via a graphical control panel from your browser, as with shared hosting. However, you get the huge advantage of having the whole server just for you and not shared with anyone else, which can help you achieve optimal performance and rock-solid security.

• Is managed VPS hosting easy to use?

  Managed VPS hosting doesn’t require technical skills. You don’t need to learn anything new to run your website on a managed virtual server. It is the same as running it on shared hosting but you have the whole server just for you.

• Is a managed VPS better than shared hosting?

  The managed VPS hosting is better than shared hosting in every aspect except the price. Shared hosting is cheaper for a reason. Running your website on your own server gives you much better security, speed, and performance as you have all of the CPU/RAM to yourself and don’t share it with other websites. The latter can degrade your site speed and may very likely introduce security concerns, get your IP blacklisted, and more.

• Will my website load faster on a VPS?

  It is very likely that your website will load faster on a VPS since it will be able to utilize 100% of the CPU and RAM. In a shared hosting environment the CPU is shared between all websites which results in sub-par speed and performance.

  The most important advantage for you is that your website will be fast consistently throughout the day 24/7 because you don’t have other users on your server to drain your server resources.

• Which managed VPS plan is right for me?

  You are not tied to plans. That is a term of the past. You get a true cloud VPS hosting service. The managed VPS hosting with ScalaHosting features flexible resources. That means you may upgrade/downgrade your server’s CPU/RAM with a click whenever you need to and get credited for the unused portion in case of a downgrade.

  If you are not sure you may start with the entry configuration of 2 CPU cores, 4GB RAM, and as much disk space as you see fit, which works for 80% of the websites.

• How do I migrate my website to a VPS?

  We migrate all your websites to your managed virtual server with ScalaHosting without downtime and at no extra cost. It doesn’t matter how many websites you want to migrate to your server. It’s absolutely free and effortless. The only thing we need from you is the login details to the old server which we use to transfer all files, databases and emails. Then we manually verify that each migrated website loads correctly from your new server. Technical support is always available 24/7 to answer any additional questions you may have.

• Will my website be down during the migration?

  No. Your website will continue to run normally without any interruptions during the migration and after that.

• How long does it take to set up managed VPS hosting?

  Your VPS is online and ready for use within 10 minutes of signing up. You will receive a welcome email with instructions and steps how to get started. Technical assistance is available 24/7 via the live chat (instant) and a ticket/email (15-min response time).
