In addition to data protection, it also protects against DDoS attacks. There’s advanced DDoS protection and a firewall as security measures.
When you order its shared or VPS plans, you’ll have access to add-ons with which you can configure your account.
Pricing and Support
NetForChoice presents two shared plans that come with notable price variations. Although the Economy plan might initially seem to be the most cost-effective option, it’s important to note that its expenses can escalate because of the incorporation of different customizable add-ons. This scenario differs from the Unlimited plan, where your evaluation of affordability for these plans depends on your specific resource needs.
Its VPS plans are affordable too, with a five-day refund period on the Linux plans and a one week refund period coupled with a free trial on the Windows plans.
Its billing cycles are monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual for the VPS plans, with discounts as you subscribe for longer periods of time. In contrast, the shared plans have yearly, biennial, and triennial billing cycles.
Payments can be made using seven different currencies, through billing methods like wire transfer, PayPal, credit/debit cards, AsiaPay, cheque/mail-in payment, and TDS.
NetForChoice provides support through phone, email, live chat, ticketing system, and a limited knowledge base.
