Selecting the appropriate level of management for your VPS server is crucial for ensuring optimal performance, security, and peace of mind. At rental-server.net, we offer various Managed Vps Server options to cater to different technical expertise and business requirements. Understanding these options will empower you to make an informed decision during your purchase.
Understanding VPS Server Management Levels
We provide three distinct levels of VPS server management: User-Responsible (Free), Basic, and Complete. Each level offers a different scope of support and services, designed to match your technical capabilities and the level of hands-on management you prefer.
User-Responsible (Free – Default)
This is the default management level and is ideal for users with strong technical skills and experience in server administration. With the User-Responsible option, you have full control over your VPS server and are responsible for all aspects of server management, including security, maintenance, and software updates.
Key features of User-Responsible Management:
- Full Root Access: You have complete administrative control over your server environment.
- Initial VPS Setup: We handle the initial setup of your VPS.
- Operating System Installation: We install AlmaLinux as the operating system.
- Reboot Access & SolusVM Access: You have access to reboot your server and manage it through SolusVM.
- Hardware Issue Resolution: We ensure the proper functioning of the server hardware.
- Customer Support Advice: Our support team can provide guidance on basic tasks like password resets and backup creation.
However, it’s important to note that with User-Responsible management, tasks like security enhancements, server failure restoration, and core software changes are the user’s responsibility. For advanced security features like CXS anti-malware, you would need to purchase a license separately.
Basic Managed VPS Server
For users who prefer a balance between control and support, our Basic Managed VPS Server option offers essential assistance with server management. For a small monthly fee of $10.00, you gain access to crucial support services that alleviate some of the technical burdens of server administration.
Enhancements with Basic Managed VPS Server:
- CXS License Installation: We install a CXS license, providing you with initial anti-malware protection. Free scans are also available upon request.
- Server Failure Restoration: In the event of a server failure, our technical support team will restore your server for a flat rate of $10.00 per incident.
- Core Software Changes: For core software modifications such as OS reinstallation or software version changes, we offer 1 hour of support at a flat rate of $15.00.
- Root Cause Analysis for Server Failures: To prevent future issues, our team will investigate the root cause of server failures for a flat rate of $15.00 per hour.
- Proactive Monitoring: We implement proactive server monitoring to detect and address potential issues.
- Vendor Updates: We handle necessary vendor updates to keep your server environment secure and stable.
- Offsite Backup (Up to 200GB Weekly): We provide weekly offsite backups of up to 200GB to protect your valuable data.
The Basic Managed VPS Server option is a significant step up from the User-Responsible level, providing essential security and support services that are particularly beneficial for users who are less experienced with server administration or who prefer to offload some management tasks.
Complete Managed VPS Server
Our Complete Managed VPS Server option is the ultimate solution for users seeking comprehensive support and hands-off server management. For $25.00 per month, you receive all the benefits of the Basic management level, plus enhanced security features and more inclusive support.
Comprehensive Features of Complete Managed VPS Server:

- CXS License Included: A CXS license is automatically included, providing robust anti-malware protection.

Choosing the Right Management Level

- Choose User-Responsible if you possess strong server management skills and prefer full control over your server environment and are comfortable handling all maintenance and security aspects yourself.
- Opt for Basic Management if you want a balance between control and support, need assistance with essential security and maintenance tasks, and prefer to offload some technical responsibilities while keeping costs moderate.
- Select Complete Management if you desire a fully managed solution, want to minimize your involvement in server administration, and prioritize comprehensive security and proactive support for maximum uptime and peace of mind.
