Client testimonials

We are so pleased and confident in their resilience and business continuity capabilities, that we have just moved our own in-house servers to their environment.
Switching to BlackBox Hosting has significantly enhanced our operations. Their service has proven invaluable in streamlining our operations and reducing downtime. We wholeheartedly recommend BlackBox Hosting for any business seeking a seamless and worry-free cloud solution.
BlackBox Hosting were our immediate go-to provider for our server hosting needs and we cannot fault their service to date. They maintain the highest level of security consideration when configuring server connection and we have a strong confidence in their resilience abilities.
We wanted to work with a provider that is as keen to have a 4 user system on their platform as a 100 user system and would deliver the same level of quality and care to both, BBH is that partner and we’re delighted to be working with them.
BlackBox Hosting provided a first-class server setup for Universal Extras and assisted our web developers during the complex migration from our old to our new website. The new server infrastructure is fast, reliable and scalable.

    VPS Hosting FAQs

    What’s the difference between VPS and shared hosting?

    VPS gives you dedicated server resources and complete control, unlike in shared hosting, where CPU, RAM and memory are split across multiple users.

    How much does VPS hosting cost?

    The average cost for a virtual private server service ranges from £20 to £60 per month. To learn more about BlackBox Hosting’s VPS pricing plans, call us on +44 (0)2037 407 840.

    Is a VPS a dedicated server?

    No, a VPS server is not a dedicated server. It has a virtual layer that simulates a dedicated server on a physical server shared with other users. 

    How secure is VPS hosting?

    VPS hosting is as secure as having a “private server”, as your section of the virtual server is isolated from the other users.

    Can I upgrade my VPS plan later?

    Yes, you can. All BlackBox VPS plans are fully scalable, allowing you to add more CPU, RAM, or storage instantly.

    Where are your VPS servers located?

    All of our servers are hosted in our UK-based, ISO 27001-certified Tier 3+ data centres.

    Do you provide backup services?

    Yes, we have backup services, including full disaster recovery options like DRaaS and BaaS. We offer daily, weekly, and custom backup schedules.

    Do I need technical knowledge to manage a VPS?

    It’s good to have some technical background, but it’s not a must. We can support you with managed VPS servers as well as parachute in to help you with self-managed VPS plans.

    What operating systems do you support?

    We support all major Linux distributions (Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian) and Windows Server editions.

    Can I host multiple websites or apps on a single VPS?

    Yes, you are free to host multiple domains, databases, and applications, all isolated and secure on your VPS.
