When should you use a Virtual Private Server?
Starting with a VPS plan from the beginning is a good idea. eCommerce websites, for example, that require secure payments in a fast and stable environment can greatly benefit from a virtual private server. In fact, if you store sensitive data or have to process online payments, a virtual private server (VPS) can help you reduce the risk of security breaches and identity theft.
A VPS hosting plan can also be beneficial if you anticipate traffic spikes on your site at specific times, such as in the case of an event planning or ticket-selling website. Game servers, such as CS:GO or Minecraft, and other resource-intensive websites perform much better on a virtual private server.

Initially, I rated them a one star due to what I perceived to be a bait-and-switch sales tactic. The definition of "term" was not concrete, so I assumed it to be an annual term, billed monthly. I complained, and the sales team told me there was nothing they could do. I started moving my sites to a competitor when a sales manager from A2 contacted me to offer to extend rate for 11-months, which is what I had expected. I am delighted to say that they did the right thing for the customer. I am happy to update my review to 5 stars as every other experience with them has been outstanding. They have successfully retained me as a loyal customer for years to come.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Original post below:Read every line very carefully. I recently upgraded my service to what I thought was a 1-year term, paying monthly. WRONG. I only received a single month promotional rate. I have been a customer for years, but now I am moving to another provider.I did reach out to the company to see if they could extend the offer, but they said no. I get it, they want to stick to the legal definition in the agreement to maximize their profits. We are all in business to make money after all. They need to be clearer in their marketing to ensure the customer fully understand their definition of "term" in this regard. I viewed the "term" to be annual, since that has always been the "term" in prior service subscriptions I have had with them. The change in the definition of "term" was unanticipated leading to my shock and surprise.To make this right, their marketing department needs to shore up their process to ensure the customer fully understands what it is that they are agreeing to before committing the order and locking in the subscription.In my case, what I'd like to see is to simply extend the "term" to be 1-year instead of 1-month. If you can do that, I'll stay with A2 Hosting. If you can't, I'll be forced to look for equivalent hosting services elsewhere with terms that I understand in advance.
