Managed Server vs. Unmanaged Server

Learn the differences between a managed server and an unmanaged server.

We offer full management with every managed dedicated server.

The customer himself manages a self-managed or unmanaged server. We do not offer unmanaged dedicated servers however we provide root access with every managed dedicated server.

  • cPanel/WHM Control Panel

    cPanel is an easy to use control panel that allows you to add and manage domains with a few clicks. We offer free cPanel with every managed dedicated server. An unmanaged server does not generally include a cPanel license.

  • Full root Access

    We provide root access with every managed dedicated server. An unmanaged server includes root access too. With root access, you get complete control and can change any aspect of your server. The user "root" in Linux is similar to the user "Administrator" in Windows.

Every managed dedicated server plan includes cPanel control panel and proactive monitoring. Order a new managed dedicated server today and let us migrate your existing websites to your new server.
