CentOS in Dedicated Web Hosting

CentOS is among the Operating Systems which we offer with our dedicated server plans. Throughout the sign-up process, you will be able to select from the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and make sure that the software environment on your new server matches the specifications of the apps that you intend to set up. Compared to other Operating Systems, CentOS also allows you to pick from various hosting Control Panels, based on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you'll be able to control the whole server like a single account whatever the number of domains which you host, while with cPanel you are able to generate a separate account for each and every domain name, that can give you the opportunity to start a hosting reseller business. In case you do not pick any Control Panel, you will get your server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also provide you with weekly OS updates included in our own Managed Services package, so you won't have to invest effort and time downloading and installing the latest and most protected software on your dedicated server.
