Hey, i have at the moment mautic installed on shared hosting in fastcomet.
I have a package 6 Cores CPU and 6 GB of Ram so even if it’s shared hosting it’s a strong one.
One of fastcomet limits is that you can’t use database bigger than 1GB and i am getting there.
There are other hosting with similar packages without that limit when the avarage price for the package (at least untill renewal) is around $10 a month for similar resources.
I am checking at the moment for alternative, I have about 1000-1500 users on my lists and at the moment apart from the datbase size problem the system running without any problems.
I will be happy to hear where most people host the system?, on which package?, and how much you pay for it?
As Company (Friendly Automate) we are hosting only in Switzerland and Germany by NOT multinational companies, only Swiss owned / German owned companies (location is based on customer’s request). We are not using swiss Google and AWS datacenters. The small local firms cost a lot more then AWS or Google, but we are aiming to be locally hosted and it would be a big fat lie to use clouds with owners outsite of the EU. We even switched the data center when a provider was sold.
At the same time I have a few instances for private contacts from the US and UK, which I host on Linode. (Akamai). I’m pretty happy with it.
There is the Rescale option (1) when you select your current VPS. As I have the CPX11, I have the option to rescale to CX21 or grater (2).
And I have also the option to select (3) : if I suppose that later I want to downgrade, then I can let that checkbox selected.
No need to recreate a new VPS.
Still, there you have the option to create Snapshots, from which you can create another VPS’s => like this I tested first the upgrading from v4.4.1 to v4.4.4 (to be sure that the instance later on works without any bugs). The newly created VPS lasted not more than 1 hour, after I have deleted. And afterwards I upgraded on the live mautic instance. Very cool feature these snapshots as well!
Thank you @IonutOjicaDe . Very nice feature. I’m convinced now. I was tempted to Hostinger, but this seems to be way more interesting in terms of price.
The snapshot is a nice feature.
Took note of your post, will order in a couple of weeks when I’m ready to deploy the site.
