Frequently asked questions
What does the entry plan include?+
The entry plan comes with 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 50 GB SSD. It is sold on monthly billing, since monthly lists monthly as the only model available.
How much is the entry plan?+
The entry plan is priced at €59 per month. That is well above the VPS median of €5.63 for the category, which is worth weighing before committing.
Where can servers be located?+
Servers run across DZ, AO and BJ, a total of 31 locations. That footprint is the clearest reason to look at this provider for African-facing workloads.
How is bandwidth provided?+
The allowance is 100 Mbps non-guaranteed. Because the rate is not guaranteed, busy sites may see throttling that a committed figure would avoid.
What operating systems are supported?+
Both linux and windows are supported. Windows support is less common among low-cost VPS providers, which widens the range of workloads the entry plan can run.
Is there DDoS protection?+
DDoS protection is included as standard. Availability sits with a large share of VPS providers, so the real differentiator here is the location list rather than the protection itself.
How can you reach support?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone, so help is available by phone and live chat as well as email. The provider is Hodi SAS, registered in Reunion.
What uptime is committed?+
The stated SLA is 99.95% to 99.99%. That commitment is worth checking against the terms in force at purchase, since published service conditions can change.
