Budget Dedicated Server South Africa

Q: What is the difference between a dedicated server and a VPS?

A VPS is a virtual slice of a physical server sharing the underlying hardware. A dedicated server is an entire physical machine for your exclusive use — no virtualisation, no resource sharing, maximum performance.

Q: What operating systems are available?

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, CentOS 7, Debian 11 and Debian 12. Windows Server 2019 and 2022 are available on request. Custom ISO uploads are supported.

Q: Is the bandwidth truly unmetered?

Yes. Budget dedicated servers include unmetered bandwidth with no monthly caps or overage charges. Fair use applies for extreme abuse, but typical business workloads are never affected.

Q: Do I get full root access?

Yes. All dedicated server plans include full root SSH access. You have complete hardware-level control — install any software, configure any service, set up any firewall rules.

Q: Does it include DDoS protection?

Yes. All Web Design Labs dedicated server plans include network-level DDoS protection at no additional cost, protecting against volumetric attacks at the network edge.

Q: Are the servers managed or unmanaged?

Budget dedicated servers are unmanaged — you are responsible for OS setup, software and security. Technical knowledge (Linux command line) is required. Contact us if you need a managed option.
