Celebrating a decade offering Windows VPS hosting services

If you're in the market for a flexible, robust Windows based virtual server, look no further than our Windows VPS hosting services, also known as virtual private servers. Starting from $20/mo, our Windows VPS packages are designed to provide a powerful hosting experience without breaking the bank.

Why is it called a VPS?

Originally, the web hosting industry was using the term VPS, or virtual private server, for a virtualized server. The term is still the same, but many companies also use the terms virtual servers, virtual machines, cloud servers, a "slice" and a few others.

But all are the same, meaning a full installation of Windows, completely yours, but running in an environment shared with other running installations of Windows belonging to other clients. Each one is, of course, fully isolated from each other.

Do I get Administrator access?

Absolutely. The Windows operating system running as a VPS is completely under control.

Robust Windows VPS specifications

Our entry-level Windows VPS comes with 2GBs of RAM, 50GBs of storage space, and 2 vCPUs (virtual CPUs), complete with Microsoft's Windows license.

Ideal uses for Windows VPS

A Windows VPS is a versatile tool suited for several uses:

  • Remote Desktop Hosting: Easily access your work environment from any location.
  • Hosting Websites on Microsoft IIS: Deploy and manage your websites with ease using Microsoft IIS.
  • Running a Microsoft SQL Server: Support your database management with a powerful SQL server.
  • Remote Microsoft Word Solution: Access Word and other Microsoft Office applications from anywhere.

Is it fast?

Each Windows VPS runs within one of our powerful servers, also known as a hypervisor. These are machines with excessive resources, such as having more than 80 vCPUs and 1TB of RAM or more. We guarantee that the resources of our hypervisors will never be oversold, and thus, your Windows VPS will run at its best speed.

You can choose from our Generation 3 or our Generation 4 virtual servers. Generation 3 runs on Intel Xeon E5v4 class processors, at 2.1Ghz, while our Generation 4 virtual servers run on 3.5Ghz Intel Xeon Gold processors.
