An evaluation of CloudNEO

We, at lunarsoftware.eu, have picked 'CloudNEO' to be our present domain name and hosting vendor. This is why we imagine that this concise assessment of 'CloudNEO' is perchance going to be very helpful for other individuals from all over the World who are searching for domain name and web hosting solutions. We say individuals from all over the Globe, because the simple fact is that 'CloudNEO' presently offers domain and hosting services in several data center sites: in the USA (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thus, covering approximately the whole planet. At least as far as the World Wide Web is concerned. So, here is what you could expect from 'CloudNEO' in a few words:

Shared Web Site Hosting Packages

The first detail we, at lunarsoftware.eu, have discerned is the budget prices of the shared web page hosting packages delivered by 'CloudNEO'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared hosting. The good news here is that the web hosting accounts offered by 'CloudNEO' are driven by an in-house devised, modern cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, such as mail, databases, web hosting Control Panel, disk space, DNS, stats, and so on, is being handled by an autonomous host of servers in a cluster). This is a circumstance ANY cPanel web hosting firm in the World will have considerable predicaments with, because cPanel is a one-server based site hosting environment (each web hosting service, such as electronic mail, databases, web hosting Control Panel, storage space, DNS, stats, etc., is being tackled by one single server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel web site hosting vendors are unable to add extra functionality and handle it the way they want it) and there is no open source file system (they have to make their own file system), which is the premise of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared site hosting plans, which are driven by a real cloud web page hosting platform. With a shared web site hosting plan, each customer pays only for his/her package, thus maintaining the webspace hosting price really low (since a lot of customers utilize one and the same web hosting server). In a few words, a shared hosting account, which is hosted on a clustered website hosting solution, permits you to pay only for the resources that you really require, averting a situation where you pay for a feature-rich web space hosting package that you cannot actually utilize, or for a low-end web site hosting account that cannot accommodate your website. The ability to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just two mouse clicks grants you the flexibility to begin with a tiny plan and upgrade as your web presence grows. Thus, you spare cash that you can invest in advertising the web site while it is still new. Every site hosting account furnished by 'CloudNEO' comes with an online website building tool and over forty popular script-driven software platforms including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you 100s of dollars for web site design solutions. 'CloudNEO' supplies shared web space hosting packages in a number of different regions across the Globe. There is one datacenter facility in Chicago encompassing the USA and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia-Pacific region. That way, approximately the whole Earth is covered to provide you and your web site's visitors with a stable and dependable web site hosting solution at a convenient place. On the whole, the shared hosting solutions provided 'CloudNEO' are very well appointed and come at an excellent price (beginning from €5.02 for the Beginner plan).

Dedicated Servers

According to lunarsoftware.eu, enormous web pages such as social networks, community and corporate portals or famous web storefronts with 1000s of customers request a much more powerful website hosting solution. It appears that the folks from 'CloudNEO' have reached the same conclusion too. To satisfy its clients' needs, 'CloudNEO' supplies an assortment of dedicated web hosting servers that can cope with millions of daily visits. That assessment rests on the hardware specifications the web servers include: multi-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand GB of disk storage and Gigabit NICs will no doubt ensure the quick and steady performance of any type of site. According to 'CloudNEO', the primary hardware configurations can be upgraded for more system resource-requiring web sites. We, from lunarsoftware.eu, deem that all dedicated server configurations delivered by 'CloudNEO' are also appropriate for commencing a hosting reseller business as every dedicated web server provides free billing software and a complimentary domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web hosting servers supplied by 'CloudNEO' are all unmanaged. We, at lunarsoftware.eu, consider this a tiny disadvantage, which can be corrected by paying a monthly tax which amounts to €32.44 EUR. So, if you need help, the Managed Services upgrade offers a bouquet of extra services such as a routine backup, software installation, web server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. An array of hosting Control Panel (CP) interfaces are available with each of the dedicated hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (lunarsoftware.eu's) forecast is that the remarkable point-and-click File Manager offered by the Hepsia site hosting CP will perhaps make the use of any File Transfer Protocol software pointless. Our (lunarsoftware.eu's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers supplied by 'CloudNEO' don't seem to be very affordably priced (still the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and the unmetered hosted domain quotas will definitely make you smile), beginning from €148.19 for the Xeon Scalable 8c plan.
