A2 Hosting vs Rocket.net

It’s the service that stores your website's files and makes them available for the world to see on the internet.

Yes. If you want a website, you need a place for it to live online. A hosting plan provides that secure space on our servers.

On a hosting plan your site sits in its own isolated container on a managed server, with dedicated CPU and RAM, and we run everything. A managed server of your own gives you the whole box: all the resources are yours, still fully managed by us. Most sites start on a plan and move up when they outgrow it, on the same platform, with the same team, and no re-platforming.

Yes — our plans are built to grow with you. You can upgrade easily and without downtime, all the way from shared hosting to a managed server of your own.

Yes, all plans come with our integrated email solution, so you can create professional addresses using your domain name.

No. The control panel is intuitive, and Orbi plus our in-house team are on hand 24/7. Developers can still reach advanced tools like SSH, Git integration and custom cron jobs.

Yes. All our plans include robust security features like SSL certificates, DDoS protection, and automated backups to keep your site safe.

Some of our plans do. Just check the features of each plan to see which one fits your needs. check plan specs for the site limit.

These are fully managed servers, which means we take care of all the patching, security updates and server management for you. You'll access everything through cPanel, so you can focus on running your site without worrying about what's happening behind the scenes. And if you ever decide you'd like full root access and direct OS control, our unmanaged dedicated or cloud options would be a perfect fit for that.

On shared hosting, resources are spread across many customers on the same server, so performance can vary depending on what everyone else is doing. With a Managed cPanel Server, all the RAM, CPU and NVMe storage are dedicated entirely to you. You'll still get the same familiar cPanel interface, but with the added benefit of full isolation, predictable performance and resources that are yours alone.

There's no limit on addon domains or websites within a single cPanel account, so you can host as many sites as you need. If you'd prefer separate cPanel logins for different clients or projects, whether that's for isolation, independent quotas or white labelling, you can easily add extra cPanel accounts through autoscale licensing. These are charged at the transparent cPanel pass through rate, so no markups or surprises.

We take care of everything on the server side for you, including initial provisioning and configuration, OS and software patching (cPanel, CloudLinux, Monarx and more), firewall setup and maintenance, 24/7 server level monitoring, daily backup configuration and website migrations. Essentially, we keep the engine running smoothly so you can focus on your sites. Things like application code, CMS plugin updates and content are yours to manage through cPanel, giving you full control over the stuff t

You can upgrade to a larger plan whenever you need to, and we'll handle the entire move for you. No migration headaches on your end.

A VPS is a virtual private server: a virtual machine with its own operating system and its own dedicated CPU, RAM and NVMe storage, running on shared physical hardware but isolated from every other server on it. Unmanaged means you run the software side yourself: the OS, updates, security and whatever you install. We run the hardware, power, network and data centre underneath it.

If you are looking for an easy upgrade from your Shared Hosting account and want to continue using an intuitive control panel like cPanel, we recommend that you select a Managed VPS account. Our expert support team can even seamlessly migrate your existing website into a Managed VPS for free! If, on the other hand, you are an experienced developer who is comfortable working with command line and want root access so you can fully customize your server, an Unmanaged VPS would be a better option fo
