CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is among the Operating System choices provided by our Linux VPS plans. You will get a quick, risk-free and reliable machine along with a 32- or 64-bit OS, based on the choice that you've made during the sign-up process. You can also choose from the Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting Control Panels - something, which is not possible with the other Linux distributions. These options will provide you with the opportunity to decide what you would like to do with your VPS - to host your own websites and to control the server as one very powerful account, or to create many different accounts and provide access to other people if, for example, you want to start a hosting reseller business. When you're more experienced and you need a server with CentOS, however with no further software which is usually set up on it, you are able to buy a VPS without any Control Panel. This will allow you to entirely customize the software environment for your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is one of the Operating Systems which we provide with all of our dedicated server packages. During the signup process, you can choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and make sure that the software environment on your new server will meet the requirements of the applications that you wish to set up. Unlike other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to choose from a couple of website hosting Control Panels, determined by what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you're able to manage the server like just a single account irrespective of the number of domain names that you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you're able to create an independent account for each domain, that can give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you do not select any Control Panel, you will get the server with CentOS only, as the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also offer you regular OS updates included in our Managed Services package, so you will not have to devote time and effort downloading and installing the most up-to-date and most secure software on your dedicated server.
