Other than having more system resources, a very good reason why you could get your own hosting server and use it instead of a shared hosting plan is the fact you are able to install and run a large selection of software. With a shared account, you can use programs, which do not require root access and aren't set up server-side, so in case you need specific software for your sites, you cannot install it on a shared server. This is not so with a hosting server of your own in which you could install whatever you need. The downside is that you may not have much experience and managing your own server is more difficult that managing a shared web hosting account where the service provider handles the majority of things. This is why we offer an additional service for our hosting server plans called Installation & Troubleshooting and you may take advantage of it any time that you come across any difficulties with the supervision of your server.
Installation and Troubleshooting in VPS Servers
The upgrade is obtainable with all VPS server plans that we offer and you'll be able to add it either during the signup or anytime after via your billing CP. It includes an hour of custom work on your hosting server, so our admins will be able to help you with software installation or setup. They'll also troubleshoot any piece of software which you have already installed if it doesn't work, so you will not need to waste time to find out what's wrong since they can help you in a very quick and qualified way. Since this is a one-time upgrade, you could get it just if you need it and if a particular task takes shorter time, the remaining minutes will be available for the future and will not be reset in the end of the month. This upgrade is effective in case you are unable to do something by yourself or when you have our Managed Services upgrade, but the half an hour of custom work it features aren't enough for a specific task.
Installation and Troubleshooting in Dedicated Servers
The upgrade is available with all of our Linux dedicated service and if you add it, our expert administrators will be able to assist you with anything on your machine. This includes setting up any third-party software which you might want to use on the server and troubleshooting any script which functions badly or doesn't run at all. Our upgrade comes with sixty minutes of work and in case a certain task isn't very time-consuming, we'll add the remaining time to your account. You'll be able to check out how many minutes are left in your billing Control Panel and use them anytime you need help again. The Installation & Troubleshooting upgrade can be acquired at any time, so in case you require something to be installed in the very beginning, you could add it to your order during the sign up procedure, while if you require support later on, you'll be able to add it from the hosting server billing area. Half an hour of custom work are supplied with our Managed Services pack as well, but in case you require additional work to be carried out on the hosting server, the Installation & Troubleshooting upgrade shall be a guarantee that your apps will be installed and set up in the very best possible way.
