Virtual Private Servers
With our South African hosted Virtual Private Servers (VPS) for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), you can have the flexibility and privacy of your own server environment without having to invest in expensive and space-grabbing hardware. Virtual Private Servers are also much more energy efficient and environmentally friendly, which helps you keep your carbon footprint in check.
With virtualisation, you’ll achieve significant cost savings because you can eliminate the cost of buying and managing the hardware. Virtual servers also take out the additional hassle of keeping the server equipment insured and secured. You can then reinvest that crucial capital expenditure back into the business to help it run more successfully on a day to day basis. In short, we take care of your server while you take care of your business.
WebNow offers VPS powered by Microsoft’s Hyper-V platform as a superior alternative to dedicated server hosting, shared hosting, or popular VPS hosting. Hyper-V virtual dedicated server hosting is functionally similar to competing virtualization platforms such as VMware and Citrix Xen. As an added benefit, by using Microsoft’s Hyper-V virtual server hosting, you may also save on some of the licensing costs for windows server license.
Our VPS hosting packages can run on Microsoft Windows or Linux operating systems. This means that with our all-inclusive VPS packages you can choose the platform that best suits your hosted application, and also select whatever extras you need.
Our dedicated operations team is there specifically to help you run your VPS smoothly and efficiently, supporting you every step of the way. Virtual Private Servers are hosted in our state of the art Data Centre in Cape Town.
