If you’re looking for reasonably priced VPS hosting, then VirMach just might the right choice for your site.
Established in 2014, VirMach has since been focusing its resources on providing low-cost yet high-quality VPS hosting solutions aimed at all kinds of websites, virtual projects and businesses. Besides this, VirMach provides a whole variety of web hosting types and features from basic shared hosting packages to dedicated servers for the most demanding among customers. The company is headquartered in Los Angeles (the US) and from there it operates cloud-based data centers spread across eleven different locations, all of which are conveniently indicated on the map featured on VirMach’s main website. These include nine positions in the US (Los Angeles, Chicago, Phoenix, San Jose, Dallas, Atlanta, Seattle, Buffalo and Piscataway), one in Germany (Frankfurt) and the last one in the Netherlands (Amsterdam). VirMach’s main website looks pretty up-to-date (which is far from surprising since the company has been around for 7 years only), although it doesn’t try to provide enough information about itself, forcing us to test our digital detective skills. Oddly, there is no “About” section nor an official blog, which is something we are accustomed to have, at least one of those. In the same fashion, VirMach’s social network accounts are either non-existent or treated as if they do not exist. There is a Twitter account, created in 2017, but it shows no signs of life since 2018 (and there were three of four posts to begin with). The same goes for their YouTube account, which was created in 2018 and has released four videos since. All in all, there is evidently a room for improvement in this area. If there is something that sets apart VirMach from a number of its competitors, that is the pricing of its VPS hosting solutions. Whether you want a Linux VPS or a Windows one, you will get it for a song, and that goes for their premium packages. Their simplest hosting plan (cryptically labeled as “SSD512”) starts at mere $2.50 per month and offers: 512MB of memory, one CPU vCORE,15GB of disk space,1TB / 1Gbps bandwidth, Anti-DDoS, RAID 10 SSD, and IPv4, but it excludes an ability to choose Windows as your operating system (which is available with all upper plans). Apart from this, VirMach provides shared hosting, reseller and dedicated server solution, and all of them can be purchased via all major credit/debit cards, PayPal, Alipay (for customers from China) and Bitcoin. As for a money-back guarantee, the only information we were able to dig out about it was in VirMach’s knowledgebase and a few lines in their “Terms and Conditions » section. Apparently, to get a refund, one must cancel its package within 7 days of purchase and specifically ask for it. With most of VirMach’s hosting packages you’ll be getting automatic backups and mirroring, so you won’t have to worry about the safety of your data. Weekly backups for the entire VM (up to 100GB) are included in “OpenVZ” and “KVM” line of packages and are available in eight out of nine server locations, all of which are marked on the corresponding map.
