CentOS in Dedicated Servers
You'll be able to acquire CentOS with each and every dedicated server which we offer, since 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options that you can choose on our order page. CentOS is compatible with all three hosting Control Panels which we provide, therefore you're able to select Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be installed on the server. The first one is suitable for less experienced users who want a powerful web hosting solution, due to the fact that a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like a very large account, while the other two Control Panels will allow you to generate various website hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the web hosting space. If you need CentOS with no additional software, you're able to pick a server setup without Control Panel at all. After that you can add just the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, that includes weekly CentOS updates.
