CentOS also has a much more numerous developer community than other distributions, so if you encounter any kind of problem or have some questions, you'll be able to promptly discover the information which you need. CentOS is widely known as one of the best server Operating Systems, as it is very stable and protected, which makes it very reliable even when you host private information.

CentOS in VPS Servers
CentOS is offered with each and every VPS server that we provide and you can select it through the order process from among a few other Operating Systems. Determined by the software which you'd like to set up and run, you can pick between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be online shortly after that. CentOS supports all the three hosting Control Panels which we offer - cPanel and Hepsia. This will help you choose if you would like to employ the server for your own Internet sites and to control it as a single large account, or if you want to be able to create multiple web hosting accounts and resell them to other people. Of course, you may also acquire a VPS without any Control Panel and you will get a server with an OS and the Apache web server software, but no other thing on it, so that you can install just the software that you want for your apps.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers
CentOS is among the Operating Systems that we offer with all of our dedicated server plans. During the registration process, you can choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and make sure that the software environment on your new server meets the requirements of the apps that you wish to install. Compared to other Operating Systems, CentOS also allows you to select from a couple of hosting Control Panels, determined by what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you'll be able to take care of the server like a single account whatever the number of domain names which you host, while with cPanel you're able to generate an individual account for each and every domain name, that can give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you do not choose any Control Panel, you'll receive the server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also offer regular OS updates included in our Managed Services package, so you will not need to devote effort and time downloading and setting up the latest and most secure software on the dedicated server.
