Root Access and Total Control,
With a Safety Net You Do Not Pay Extra For
Self-managed does not have to mean on your own. Your Linux VPS ships with Command Core watching it for you: security visibility, CVE alerts and predictive warnings from day one, so you fix things on your schedule instead of at 2am. Full root, high-frequency hardware, and 20 years of Linux engineers a ticket away.
Security Visibility, Included
Daily CVE scanning and threat alerts surface risks across your installed packages the moment they appear, in plain English. Full AI behavioral detection and auto-remediation come with the Managed Suite.*
Warnings Days Before Downtime
PredictiveOps flags disk-fill dates, memory leaks, & CPU saturation early, on every plan. You act on your own schedule, not at 2am. No other host bundles this on a self-managed VPS.
Run It By Just Asking
Plain-English server control in your browser, plus full root SSH and Bash with no VPN gymnastics. Managed-grade ease on a self-managed plan, the way modern Linux operations should feel.
Tuned for Real Linux Workloads
Optional 3.2 to 3.5GHz high-frequency cores and pure NVMe, built for what Linux actually runs: Nginx, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker and Magento. Single-thread speed where it counts.
Real Linux Engineers, 24/7
Twenty years running production Linux, reachable any hour. Not a ticket queue and not a chatbot, but engineers who have scaled LAMP stacks, containers and databases and answer when you need them.
Flat Pricing, No Renewal Games
The rate you sign up at is the rate you keep. No teaser pricing that doubles at renewal, no metered surprises, no gimmicks. Self-managed Linux hosting you can actually budget around.
Self-managed, but never unmonitored.

Yes, you can upgrade your server resources at any time. All your data / settings will remain in-tact during the upgrade process. Please get in touch with our sales department for upgrading existing server.

All Windows virtual servers are backed by 5 days money back guarantee. In a rare incident whereby you are not satisfied by the server or our services, you are protected by our money back guarantee.
We provide 99.9 % uptime guarantee with all Windows and Linux VPS hosting plans.
We have hardware RAID 10 with battery backup / Cache Vault setup on host machine to safeguard data from disk failures and also to increase I/O for your servers. This is monitored 24/7 through automated systems.
Host name is just used for naming/identification purpose and it can be anything (it is not necessary to put in a working domain name there).
There are no restrictions on number of domains, websites or databases that you can create or host on VPS.
Generally, it takes 1-2 hours to deliver a VPS after payment approval. However, it may take little more if there are few more orders in the queue or if it is a weekend or in case your order is flagged as high risk and requires manual review.
We include 1 IP Address with all plans and additional are available as per your requirement.
Each of our host servers is having 2 * 1 Gbps full duplex connectivity and this is shared amongst VPS’ hosted on it. Average usage on a host server is close to 5-10% of connectivity speed on 24 hour basis and hence each VPS gets a very decent share of connectivity.
Absolutely, you have full control over your VPS and can configure firewall as per your requirement. Just ensure that you do not block yourself out while configuring the firewall. Even if you do, our support team can help you immediately 🙂
Yes, we offer cPanel or Plesk for Linux Virtual machines as an addon with all the plans. You are also free to install any other control panel of your choice.
We take all measures to keep your data safe - we use RAID 10 for storage to safe guard it from disk failures. We also take disaster recovery backups (once every 7-10 days). However, we always recommend to have a second level of backup system in place (we provide R1Soft backup solution as an addon for daily / continuous backups).
We provide multiple options:
- Virtual Machine Replication - With this option, your virtual server is replicated in real time to another virtual machine (on different host machine). In case of planned / unplanned outage of primary virtual machine, replica virtual machine can be started within minutes.
- Continuous Data backup - With this option, we can setup / configure more frequent backups of your server on network backup server. You can use these backups to restore a single file / folder or perform a bare metal restoration.

I’ve been involved with computers for a very long time, having wrote my first program in 1963 for a computer that is now in the Smithsonian. I built my first website back in 1996 or so. I’ve dealt with lots of hosting services and I have never dealt with any group of people as competent, friendly, and responsive as the folks at Softsys hosting. Give them a try, you won’t regret it.
Self-Managed Linux VPS Hosting
A self-managed Linux VPS gives you full root access and the power and isolation of a dedicated server at a fraction of the cost, with the freedom to configure everything your way. Our Linux virtual private servers run on Microsoft Hyper-V, a hypervisor that delivers true hardware virtualization and complete isolation from every other account on the host, so a noisy neighbor never becomes your outage. Add CPU, RAM and storage as you grow, with no rebuild from scratch. Even on our Self-Managed service level, every plan includes SoftSys Command Core: security visibility, CVE alerts and predictive monitoring at no extra cost, plus a browser-based SSH console so you are never locked out. Deploy on AlmaLinux, Ubuntu, Debian or Rocky Linux with your choice of cPanel or Plesk, across nearly 20 global data centers including the US (Denver and Chicago), UK (London) and Asia (Singapore). Self-managed Linux VPS plans start from as low as $7.50/month, provisioned in as little as one to two hours.
