IPServerOne is a Malaysian IT services company that offers shared, cloud, email, and dedicated server hosting amongst their extensive portfolio of services. Established in 2003, they’ve since served over 50,000 customers and have over a 90% year-over-year renewal rate. They boast 24/7 support and serve a lot of well-known clients, many of whom are proudly displayed on their website.
Features and Ease of Use
IPServerOne seems to specialize in their cloud hosting and dedicated server offerings. They do have shared hosting, but this is limited to a single package and designed for small to medium enterprises looking for a cost-effective hosting option. This lone shared hosting package affords customers 50GB storage, unlimited data transfer, up to 100,000 files, up to 10 add-on domains, unlimited emails, and an SSL certificate. At the single annual rate offered, you get a server and network uptime of 99.9% at minimum, along with 24/7 support.
IPServerOne offers two types of cloud hosting: OpenStack and regular virtual server. The former was primarily designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers. Both types are quickly deployed and easily scalable. However, the OpenStack option has the added advantage of a pay-as-you-go billing system, so you only pay for the resources that you actually use. The regular cloud hosting option, on the other hand, goes by a monthly billing system.
IPServerOne has a number of dedicated server packages. The entry-level option includes:
- Single Intel Xeon E3/X3
- 30Mbps bandwidth
- 8GB RAM
- 5Gbps clean-pipe with three months of free DDoS protection
- 2x 1TB SATA HDD
- 1 IPv4 address
You also have the option of purchasing additional backup hard drives, adding unlimited VPN accounts, utilizing their CDN, or getting your own control panel and operating system license from them.
Pricing and Support
In the shared hosting category, IPServerOne offers a single package. They provide a fixed annual rate, and the longer the contract term you choose, the greater the discounts you receive. The pricing is definitely reasonable considering the ample resources and features included in the plan. However, if you only require a simple website setup, this package might be more than what you need. It’s important to assess your specific requirements before making a decision.
I tried out their live chat and was glad to find out that a real person answered my query almost immediately. I was then guided to a link where I could find the relevant information and read more about it. Professional and helpful are how I would describe their support staff. They are also reachable by telephone, fax, and email. Alternatively, you can browse through their comprehensive knowledge base to resolve any server and account-related issues that may occur.
