An evaluation of Exon Hosting

We, at cloudix.us, have selected 'Exon Hosting' to be our present domain and hosting supplier. Therefore we believe that this succinct evaluation of 'Exon Hosting' is probably going to be quite useful for other individuals from all over the World who seek domain name and web hosting services. We state people from all around the World, because the mere fact is that 'Exon Hosting' currently offers domain and hosting services in multiple data center sites: in America (Chicago, IL), in the UK (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, encompassing approximately the whole Globe. At least from the point of view of the Internet. So, here is what you could expect from 'Exon Hosting' in brief:

Shared Hosting Accounts

The initial detail we, at cloudix.us, have seen is the inexpensive prices of the shared hosting plans supplied by 'Exon Hosting'. Shared doesn't seem very good, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good thing here is that the web page hosting plans provided by 'Exon Hosting' are powered by an in-house devised, futuristic cloud web hosting platform (each hosting service, such as mail, databases, hosting CP, disk storage, DNS, stats, etc., is being dealt with by an independent pack of web servers in a cluster). This is something ANY cPanel web hosting company in the World will have big troubles with, because cPanel is a single server based site hosting environment (each hosting service, such as email, databases, webspace hosting CP, web space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being served by one single web hosting server), cPanel is not open source (hence the cPanel website hosting distributors cannot include additional functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they must set up their own file system), which is the prerequisite of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared website hosting plans, which are driven by a real clustered web site hosting solution. With a shared webspace hosting package, each client pays solely for his/her account, thus maintaining the webspace hosting price very low (since multiple clients are hosted on the same hosting server). To cut a long story short, a shared hosting account, which is hosted on a cloud webspace hosting platform, enables you to pay solely for the resources that you really require, escaping a scenario where you pay for a high-end web site hosting account that you cannot truly use, or for a small web site hosting plan that cannot host your site. The possibility to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just two clicks gives you the flexibility to kick off with a basic plan and upgrade as your web site expands. That way, you economize money that you can spend on publicizing the web site while it is still brand new. Each and every webspace hosting plan provided by 'Exon Hosting' arrives with an online web site builder and more than 40 popular script-driven software platforms including WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will economize you 100s of dollars for web design services. 'Exon Hosting' delivers shared web hosting plans in several different geographical regions around the Globe. There is one data center in Chicago encompassing the United States and Canada; 2 European datacenters - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which encompasses the Asia-Pacific region. Hence, almost the whole Earth is covered to present you and your web site's visitors with a steady and dependable web page hosting solution at a nearby place. On the whole, the shared hosting accounts supplied 'Exon Hosting' are quite well furnished and are available at a very low price (starting from $3.00 for the Starter package).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To customers with little to no practice, a virtual hosting server may appear tough to manage. That's probably why 'Exon Hosting' also offers semi-dedicated servers in its main American datacenter in Chicago. Administering these plans is similar to administering a conventional shared hosting package through a web hosting CP tool. They have all the functionalities of a shared website hosting plan such as a free-of-cost web site building tool and a web app installation tool, but the amount of system resources provided by a semi-dedicated server web hosting plan is many times bigger than that of a shared website hosting package. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is about FIVE times as much as compared with the shared hosting plans. When juxtaposed to a shared plan, the number of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is huge: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted top-level domain name quota is a principle too. The semi-dedicated web server hosting packages do not include full root-level access (we, at cloudix.us, consider this a tiny defect), but the benefit is that they are managed through the very same web site hosting CP user interface as the shared web hosting packages. This suggests that a known GUI is available to all clients who do not have enough self-condifence to administer a VPS web hosting server, but at the same time demand more power and system resources than a VPS server can give them. This is so due to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the resources of the very same powerful high-class hosting servers as the ones which host the VPS server hosting packages, yet, the number of the semi-dedicated web hosting servers is very small (somewhere between twenty to 30 per physical machine), while the private virtual web hosting servers can reach a much higher number (80 to one hundred and twenty per server). Having that info in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'Exon Hosting' can be labeled as being very cheap (as far as cost is concerned), starting from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 package.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

According to cloudix.us, large web pages such as social networks, community and business portals or famous online storefronts with thousands of clients call for a much more powerful hosting platform. It appears that the folks from 'Exon Hosting' have drawn the same conclusion as well. To fulfil its clients' requirements, 'Exon Hosting' delivers a bouquet of dedicated web hosting servers that can cope with millions of daily visits. That assessment is based on the hardware specs the hosting servers boast: multi-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand GB of disk space and Gigabit network cards will no doubt ensure the quick and stable performance of any type of site. According to 'Exon Hosting', the primary hardware configurations can be upgraded for more resource-demanding web sites. We, from cloudix.us, deem that all dedicated server configurations supplied by 'Exon Hosting' are also appropriate for initiating a hosting reseller business as every dedicated server comes with free invoicing software and a free-of-cost domain reseller account. Sadly, the dedicated web hosting servers offered by 'Exon Hosting' are all unmanaged. We, at cloudix.us, consider this a tiny inconvenience, which can be adjusted by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you require help, the Managed Services upgrade provides a selection of extra services such as a regular backup, software installation, dedicated web server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. A bunch of webspace hosting Control Panel (CP) tools are offered with each of the dedicated servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (cloudix.us's) prediction is that the outstanding drag-and-drop File Manager available in the Hepsia web page hosting CP will possibly make the utilization of any File Transfer Protocol client useless. Our (cloudix.us's) inference is that the dedicated servers delivered by 'Exon Hosting' don't appear to be very affordably priced (yet the Hepsia web site hosting CP and the unlimited hosted domain name allowance will doubtlessly make you smile), starting from $80.00 for the Xeon E3 v5 package.
