What's included with a Virtual Private Server?

Every VPS comes with two dedicated IP Addresses, PHP4 or PHP5, unlimited MySQL databases, unlimited email accounts, unlimited ftp accounts, and the control panel of your choice with the ability to resell. Basically, you get everything you'd get with a shared hosting reseller account, plus unmetered transfer, more flexibility with your account, and greater reliability.

MediaCatch makes exclusive use of the premier platform for VPS hosting, called Virtuozzo. Though more expensive than other platforms, it is a proven technology which translates to less headaches and more uptime for our customers. Through our volume purchasing partnership, we are able to offer the leading VPS platform at prices competitive with less robust solutions.

Please note that VPS plans work well for customers who want added flexibility (full server access), reduced impact from bad neighbors, and increased security. They do not work well for customers who are upgrading from shared servers due to traffic or resource usage issues, since there are firm resource limits and these resources are still divided among multiple accounts (these customers do best by moving to dedicated servers).
