Part-Managed VPS Hosting

VPS hosting with control panel access gives you admin access, while we take care of everyday tasks like security patching, backup and updates.

Most customers will choose part-managed vps servers where the management is done through a control panel, where common functions are presented in a user interface - activities like adding an FTP user or spinning up a new website.

We take care of security patching, backup and updates. So you have the flexibilty of a part-managed VPS providing you with the control of the server environment while safe in the knowledge that we’re taking care of the basics - letting you get on with your business.

What we do

  • Installation: the right operating system for your purpose.
  • Backup: full backup and daily snapshots provide flexible recovery options.
  • Firewall: setup your server's firewall settings to meet your requirements.
  • Security: we take care of patching and security monitoring.
  • Monitoring: proactive monitoring with Pushover, chat, or SMS notifications.
  • Support: excellent UK located support.
  • SSL: automatic certificate renewal.

What you can do

  • Support: contact a FAELIX sysadmin on demand.
  • Email: address and domain control panel.
  • Website: upload files and other assets with SFTP.
