VPS vs. Reseller

[wesslayneb]

I was wondering (from anyone who has transfered) would you upgrade from reseller to VPS Level 3 or above? And if yes, why would you?

It probably would be a good step to take depending on certain factors:

- Number of Clients
- Are you making enough to pay for the upgraded services
- Do you know how to admin a VPS (or even have time)?
- You have more freedom on VPS than Reseller Account.
- You have more freedom to install more software on your VPS than a Reseller account.

Hello,

Our VPS packages are ideal if you require root access but do not require the resources available with a dedicated server.

We recommend VPS packages to customers who require root access but do not need the cost or resources that come with a dedicated server.

We recommend dedicated servers to customers who use more resources than come with VPS plans.

If you do not require root access or high resource allowances, one of our reseller plans may be the best fit.

As always, you can call our support line, come into our live chat our email our support team for personalized recommendations.

We look forward to assisting you!

VPS is way to go, ssh root access is an awesome feature to use, plus stability and independence. I would take VPS in a heartbeat
