Choosing a VPS over a shared hosting plan provides enhanced performance, greater customization options, and increased security due to dedicated resources and an isolated environment, making it ideal for expanding websites and applications.

Opting for a VPS can offer more predictable and often lower costs, dedicated resources, and simpler setup and management, making it a user-friendly and cost-effective solution for small to medium-sized projects.

We make it easy! Our experienced migrations team will coordinate the process with you to transfer your data so that there is no downtime, no hassle, and no cost to you!

All of Tier.Net’s VPS plans are fully customizable with you choice of operating system and control panels. All of the options are listed when you click on the order icon.

The number of dedicated cores in a VPS can have a significant impact on your server’s performance. The more cores a server has, the more tasks it can handle simultaneously, generally resulting in faster site response times and better overall performance.

Generally speaking, the more memory a server has available, the less data the CPU must read from the hard disk drive. A server with more memory will typically work faster and with fewer incidents of lagging or crashing.
