That was my first thought as well.

I haven't looked at the $$, what seems to be the problem?

$45/month for 1GB RAM and 20GB SSD storage. We're paying $50/month for 3GB RAM and 50GB SSD storage at viviotech.net, and the only reason I stay with them is their amazing support. You'd be getting 1/3 the RAM and less than half the storage, and I know we're paying to much for the service. In the case of Viviotech I know that extra cost is for the tech support that comes with it.
You can get a VPS from vultr.com for $5 with 1GB ram and 25GB SSD. For us, and equivalent vultr.com VPS would be the $20/month one, what we'd loose is the cPanel and additional support. Even viviotech.net isn't that much more money that vultr when not using the cPanel addon.

Like you just said, there's a price to be paid for great service.

That's a HUGE price, though. There are way better ways to skin that cat.

Yeah, but I'm talking about $5/month premium, not $20/month + less service.

Are we now looking at VPS's?
I thought the plan was basic web hosting + Cloudways/Vultr for VPS? -

I thought the plan was basic web hosting + Cloudways/Vultr for VPS?Uhm.... VPS cost so little now, especially through the $2.50/month Vultr plan. Why would anyone consider shared hosting still?

Why haven't you moved all your stuff to Vultr?

No one said not to have those things. I keep telling you, just install those two things on Vultr. Problem solved for cheap.

Or in my case it's purely financially motivated. 1HR of my time costs the company way more than $11 the cPanel costs us. With only a single website to run/manage, I'd spend lots more than 1 hour a month applying security updates that cPanel just automatically takes care of. 5 minutes a week to check logs instead is worth that additional cost.

I'm finding cPanel to not save me any time, might actually slow me down. So moving away from that.

By the time I do that, I'm at BigScoots pricing level?
