Client Reviews
Is VPS good for hosting?
Yes, VPS (Virtual Private Server) is generally good for hosting for several reasons:
-
Performance: Better performance than shared hosting with dedicated resources like CPU, RAM, and storage.
-
Scalability: Effortlessly scale your VPS resources up or down based on your needs.
-
Security: More secured dev and productionenvironment as each user has their own isolated spaces
-
Control: With full root access, you can customize your server environment to meet your specific requirements.
-
Cost-effective: VPS is often more cost-effective than dedicated servers, providing a good balance between performance and price.
The suitability of VPS for hosting in Tanzania depends on your specific requirements. Shared hosting could be adequate if you own a small website that doesn’t attract a large amount of traffic. Nonetheless, for bigger websites, applications, or enterprises necessitating enhanced control, performance, and security, opting for VPS would be a smart move.

VPS Hosting FAQs
What is VPS Hosting?
VPS (Virtual Private Server) Hosting is a type of web hosting where a physical server is partitioned into multiple virtual servers.
Each virtual server operates independently, providing dedicated resources like CPU, RAM, and storage. This allows for better performance, security, and flexibility compared to shared hosting.
How much is a VPS server in Tanzania
VPS server prices in Tanzania generally range from TZS 25,000 to TZS 300,000 per month, depending on the resources (CPU, RAM, storage) and provider.
How is VPS Hosting different from shared hosting?
Shared hosting involves multiple websites sharing the same server resources, which can lead to performance issues if one site experiences high traffic.
VPS hosting allocates dedicated resources to each virtual server, ensuring consistent performance and security.
What operating systems are supported?
TrueHost VPS Hosting supports multiple operating systems, including various Linux distributions and Windows. This flexibility allows you to choose the OS that best fits your needs.
If you want Windows Hosting with Plesk, you will need Plesk license. You will see Plesk License fee during ordering process on our site.
How do I get started with VPS Hosting?
Getting started is easy! Simply choose the VPS plan that best fits your needs, sign up, and follow the on-screen instructions. Our user-friendly management panel makes it easy to manage your VPS, even if you’re not a technical expert
What is the difference between VPS hosting and dedicated server hosting?
| Feature | VPS Hosting | Dedicated Server Hosting |
|---|---|---|
| Server Resources | Shared physical server with dedicated virtual resources | Entire physical server is allocated to one user |
| Performance | Good for medium traffic websites | High performance, ideal for large traffic or heavy apps |
| Cost | More affordable (TZS 25,000–300,000/month) | More expensive (usually TZS 500,000+/month) |
| Control & Customization | Full root access, but still shares server environment | Full control and customization over the entire server |
| Scalability | Easier to scale up than shared hosting | Powerful, but scaling requires moving to new hardware |
| Security | Isolated from other users, but on shared hardware | Maximum security — not shared with anyone |
In short:
Dedicated hosting gives you full control and top-tier performance, but at a higher cost.
VPS hosting is a step up from shared hosting, affordable, and flexible.
How do I choose the right VPS plan for my business?
Consider your website’s traffic, resource needs, and budget. Our plans are scalable, so you can always upgrade as you grow.
How long does it take to set up my VPS?
Your VPS can be set up within minutes after you sign up. It’s quick and easy.
