As its name suggests, Las Vegas-based VPSCheap.net offers cheap VPS solutions. They come with a good range of features, but I’ve seen some customer reports of unstable performance.

December 21, 2020

Overview

To compare the best web hosts, we hosted the same WordPress website on each one and tested performance, customer service, and value for money. Check out the results here.

VPSCheap.net first entered the hosting market in mid-2010 to provide high-quality, low-cost Linux and Windows VPS hosting solutions with excellent uptime. This vendor is located in Las Vegas and has data centers in Chicago, Atlanta, and Dallas.

The VPSCheap.net website is full of information in English.

We actually interviewed an executive at VPSCheap.net, and here’s what we learned.

Features and Ease of Use

VPSCheap.net doesn’t do shared or cloud hosting; it focuses on VPS services. You can expect the following features from its VPS packages:

Full root access
cPanel with a software auto-installer
SSD storage
IPv6 support
Unlimited bandwidth

The cPanel control panel (available as an add-on) comes with a software auto-installer, plus a file manager and backup features. All VPSCheap.net’s packages include a built-in DNS management tool that gives you complete control of your domains. You also get full root access so you can install and run any apps you choose, including WordPress, phpBB, Joomla, Magento, and more. Unfortunately, you don’t get a CDN.

All VPSCheap.net’s servers are built on Intel Xeon servers with dedicated ECC RAM and fast RAID storage to deliver optimum performance. The downside is that VPSCheap.net seems to suffer from frequent downtime due to unstable servers, according to some customer reports.

Pricing and Support

Without a doubt, VPSCheap.net’s strongest point is its pricing. It offers a total of fifteen different VPS hosting packages, categorized according to the type of server: SSD, NVMe, or HDD. The five plans – Basic, Business, Premium, Advanced, and Enterprise – vary in terms of storage, RAM, CPU, and IP addresses (both IPv4 and IPv6).

While the Basic packages are only available on annual subscriptions, the other packages are available on shorter monthly contracts. New customers get a 30-day money-back guarantee, and you can pay by PayPal, credit card, or Bitcoin.

This provider’s support channels include live chat (for existing customers), ticket, and toll-free telephone. I found the support staff to be very responsive and knowledgeable:

For self-support, there are some tutorials, a blog, and a very good F.A.Q. section.

How much does VPSCheap.net cost?

VPSCheap.net offers plans from $2 to $28. The price depends on which type of hosting plan you choose. You can see the updated pricing table (updated weekly) below.

Which VPSCheap.net plan should I get?

My recommendation is to start with a cheaper plan. You can always upgrade later on. VPSCheap.net can help you with the migration to a more expensive plan. The increase in visitors many times takes longer than expected and you shouldn’t pay a lot of money until the need arises. Of course, your needs may vary, and you can consult with a hosting expert from VPSCheap.net here.

How good is VPSCheap.net’s customer support?

VPSCheap.net is not ranked as one of our top web hosts. But that can also be a result of VPSCheap.net being a small, under the radar, hosting provider. There are advantages to a small hosting company – as a customer, you are more important to them. You can also check out our comparison of the most popular web hosting services here.

Don't even try

I always try not to write bad reviews but with this company... OMG! My server is down for the 7th day and they are still feeding us with excuses. Don't even try their service! No support at all. They just don't care about their clients. I almost lost my business because of them.

Best Bargain Out there

I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews. For the most part, I have had no problems. Be aware however, this is not for beginners. One needs to be familiar with installing a LAMP stack from scratch. So if you need someone to "hold your hand", you'll need to look elsewhere, and be prepared to pay a lot more. I use the $20 a year plan, and for what I'm using it for, it's fine.

Absolute shite. Please, please go somewhere else.

They serve outdated Linux kernels that are out of support. After contacting support they tried to upsell me saying that the server that I chose does not support newer kernel and I need to go to their KVM servers that cost more. After asking money back from paypal they threaten with contracts and legal action.Seriously, go with someone else, they are utterly terrible.

Very slow. DO NOT recommend to WASTE money

Summary In+Out interface speed less than 10mbit (usually 4-5mbit). Very slow. Opened ticked. Support answered, speed UP TO 35Mbit so all is OK. They do cancel VPS by request but do not refund money after order cancellation based on agreement Any services purchased with quarterly, semiannual, annual or other extended billing cycles. I Will request chargeback. Each must request chargeback instead of forgiving them money.

I love the service -Started with one VPS now I have three

Price and service seem fine. It has been a pleasure doing business with them. Support and response 99% great. I gave it four because of one mouthy tech support person. However, one rotten egg does not make the henhouse bad. I started with one as an experiment and now have three. I have been with them for several years.

Bottom line on VPSCheap.net

For a hosting provider run by a team with more than 30 years of combined experience, I honestly expected more from VPSCheap.net. Although the VPS plans are as cheap as the name suggests, you may pay the price in terms of interrupted service.

Before you make a decision, we highly recommend you check out some alternative hosting companies, which we highly recommend.

Pros

Full root access
Low prices
SSD, HDD, and NVMe VPS servers

Cons

Unstable performance
Limited support
