You will be able to select CentOS for your brand new VPS server through the signup process. We offer 32-bit and 64-bit versions, to give you the opportunity to select the one that is more suitable for the applications that you want to set up and run. CentOS supports different hosting Control Panels, so that you will have a choice between cPanel, Hepsia and DirectAdmin, depending on what you intend to do - to make a separate account for each domain hosted on the server and even to start your very own reseller business, or to host all of your domain names at the same time and control the server as a single account. You'll also have the choice to buy your VPS without any Control Panel in case you need a machine with CentOS, but with no additional software which comes with the Control Panels. This way, you are able to set up web or database servers that are different from the standard ones that we offer.

During the signup process, you'll be able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and make sure that the software environment on your new server matches the specifications of the apps that you'd like to install. Unlike other Operating Systems, CentOS also allows you to select from various website hosting Control Panels, determined by what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you are able to control the entire server like just a single account irrespective of the number of domains which you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you are able to make an independent account for each and every domain, which will give you the opportunity to start a hosting reseller business. If you don't pick any Control Panel, you will get your server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels will not be installed. We also provide you with weekly OS updates included in our Managed Services package, so you will not have to devote effort and time downloading and installing the most up-to-date and most protected software on your dedicated server.
