CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for web hosting servers. It is one of the countless Linux releases out there, but what distinguishes it from all the rest is the long-term support, which guarantees that you will always have a stable and risk-free Operating System. Each CentOS version that is released is supported for ten years, which is much longer than with another OS in existence. CentOS also has a much more numerous developer community than other distributions, therefore in case you encounter any kind of problem or have some questions, you will be able to promptly discover the information which you need. CentOS is considered to be among the best server Operating Systems, due to the fact that it's very stable and secure, that makes it very reliable even if you host private info. Because it is open-source, you will be able to modify any part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the overall cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, as you won't need to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS

CentOS is accessible with each and every virtual private server that we offer and you can select it through the order process from among several other Operating Systems. Determined by the software which you need to set up and run, you're able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be up and running soon after that. CentOS supports all 3 web hosting Control Panels which we provide - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This allows you to choose if you want to employ the server for your own web sites and to control it as a single large account, or if you want to be able to create a number of hosting accounts and eventually resell them to other people. Of course, you can also purchase a VPS without Control Panel and you'll get a server with an Operating System and the Apache web server software, but nothing else on it, so you can install only the software that you need for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Hosting

CentOS is one of the Operating Systems which we supply with all of our dedicated server plans. During the sign-up process, you'll be able to pick from the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server will meet the requirements of the applications that you want to install. Unlike other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to choose between a couple of website hosting Control Panels, based on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you're able to take care of the server like just a single account whatever the number of domains which you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you will be able to create an independent account for each and every domain name, that can give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. If you don't select any Control Panel, you'll get the server with CentOS only, as the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also provide weekly OS updates as part of our Managed Services package, so you won't need to invest effort and time downloading and setting up the latest and most secure software on your dedicated server.
