Windows VPS Technology powered by Xen HVM
| Each VPS is provisioned a dedicated, guaranteed allocation of real, physical hardware. Fully isolated from all other VPS machines on the host machine by using 100% hardware-assisted virtualization, powered inside the CPU using Intel VT technology. Xen HVM technology is the next best thing to a real dedicated server. This means you can install and run any operating system such as Linux, Windows 2008, Windows 2003, Windows 7, Windows XP, Solaris, FreeBSD, even VMware to run as a VPS hosting machine inside your single purchased VPS! We give you several pre-ready Windows Server images you can provision instantly, including Microsoft licenses and all! Or use the VNC Console / KVM system and install your own operating system from one of the 50+ pre-loaded ISO discs listed below. |  |

Plus, use the full VNC Console and KVM access to install your own custom operating system using one of these included ISO disc images:
We only use 100% Dell PowerEdge enterprise-class servers, owned by us and hosted in our own datacenter located in New York. Our servers are fully optimized and loaded with 64+ GB of RAM, SSD disk systems in RAID-10 configuration, plus dual GigE connections to our BGP4 redundant Tier 1 backbone.
We do not oversell or over-subscribe our VPS nodes. Your server resources are guaranteed, provisioned, isolated and dedicated to you: this means terms like "Burstable RAM" do not apply, as you are guaranteed 100% of the RAM you selected when purchasing your VPS.
Xen PV (Paravirtualization) and Xen HVM (Full-Virtualization, Hardware virtual Machine) are very similar and do the same thing in most respects. The major difference is that Xen HVM utilizes the hardware of the physical server to use the CPU's built-in Intel VT technology to create the virtualization. Xen PV instead uses a slightly modified kernel in the VPS to talk to the hardware of the physical server to accomplish the virtualization. Xen HVM supports non-Linux based operating systems and allows you to install customized operating systems using our VNC Console KVM system and an ISO disc. Both technologies are 100% guaranteed resources, with no over-selling. Xen PV is more optimized for standard linux kernels, and thus if you plan to run a Linux-based VPS, we recommend our Xen PV (Linux) packages.
With the Xen HVM (Windows) packages, you can install any operating system and reformat, re-install from Linux to Windows, then to Solaris, and back to Windows again if you like. The Xen PV (Linux) packages support Linux-based systems -- and you can switch from any of the 50+ pre-ready versions of Linux. You cannot change from Xen PV to Xen HVM and back and forth without creating a new account (an additional purchase). You are more than welcome to buy 2 accounts or more; you will have access to all VPS's in the same VPS administration panel even if one account is Xen PV and the other is Xen HVM.
We provide support for hardware issues, network issues and anything relating to the host machine. You have access to reboot, reformat, and reload your operating system at any time through the VPS Administration panel. We also offer optional Managed Service Plans that you can choose at sign-up which include additional support elements such as hardening your server, setting up a firewall, troubleshooting and customizing server software components such as Apache, IIS, Mail, MySQL and anything part of the operating system.
Yes, we backup all VPS's once a week to a remote location for disaster recovery purposes. Those on our Xen PV platform (Linux) can also make up to 1 backup via the VPS Administration panel, and restore from that backup at any time. Both Xen PV (Linux) and Xen HVM (Windows) can also upgrade to one of our managed service plans, and/or add the R1Soft baremetal CDP remote backup system for full snapshot, versioning, roll-back and bare metal restore capabilities.
VPS orders are auto-provisioned in real time; as long as your billing details clear, with our standard review process your VPS should be online within minutes and a welcome email sent to you within 10 minutes.
Yes -- a 30-day, no-questions-asked, money-back guarantee is available to all new customers.
