What are the disadvantages of a VPS?
With any shared resources environment, there are potential risks for abuse and misuse of resources. Nexpoint carefully controls the priority and scheduling of processes, memory and network flow, in order to prevent any single user from negatively impacting shared resources.
Although Nexpoint partitions your VPS from other clients' VPS on a single server and maintains a high level of control, there are still risks associated with sharing hardware with other users. For this reason, certain clients prefer the complete isolation of their own dedicated server environment.
Nexpoint recommends any customer who needs guaranteed resources to purchase a dedicated server solution.
