- Operating systems
- current live checkout templates: AlmaLinux 9.7, Debian 13, Fedora 41-1.4, FreeBSD 14.3, Ubuntu 24.04, Windows Server 2025 Standard Evaluation; secure web host environment: CloudLinux OS, Webuzo, Imunify360; access: Linux root and Windows Administrator access are advertised for all Virtual Server plans, live order forms request a root password, SSH keys can be configured and VNC remains available when guest networking is unavailable; limitations: the marketing FAQ also names CentOS and Rocky Linux, but those distributions were not present in the inspected entry-plan checkout, the current Windows template is explicitly an evaluation edition, no public custom-ISO or customer-image upload workflow was verified
- Virtualization
- KVM hardware virtualization for the current Virtual Servers family, full Linux root access or Windows Administrator access, root-password configuration in both the self-managed and Secure WEB HOST live order flows, Proxmox-backed server controls and a browser VNC console for out-of-band access
- CPU isolation
- allocation: shared vCPU; classification evidence: VPSBenchmarks explicitly classifies ARPHost's current VPS Hosting instance type as Shared CPU: yes.; provider language: ARPHost markets dedicated CPU cores, guaranteed resources and no overselling, but does not publish a physical-core pinning or exclusive-core definition for these plans.; directory treatment: The directory therefore treats vCPU as shared rather than dedicated physical cores. Intel and AMD identify host-CPU branches; they do not establish core exclusivity.; observed hardware: A March 2026 independent AMD 2 vCPU LOCAL trial exposed an AMD EPYC 4584PX at an observed 4.2 GHz.
Features
- App installation current: Secure WEB HOST VPS includes Webuzo and advertises more than 400 one-click applications.; self managed: Ordinary Virtual Servers provide root access for manual application installation but no verified current curated one-click catalog in their checkout.; limitation: ARPHost's separate VPS Instant Applications section lists its virtual-server applications as Coming Soon; the live shared-hosting applications are not administrator-controlled VMs and are outside this directory.✓
- Templates & images system images: AlmaLinux 9.7, Debian 13, Fedora 41-1.4, FreeBSD 14.3, Ubuntu 24.04, Windows Server 2025 Standard Evaluation; lifecycle and recovery: browser VNC console, manual snapshots, one backup included in the inspected live entry-plan configuration, paid backup-storage increments from 100 GiB through 1 TiB, automated daily backup add-ons, plan upgrades from the administration console while preserving data; secure family: preinstalled CloudLinux, Webuzo and Imunify360, daily backups stored on separate backup servers with one-click restore, LiteSpeed, PHP optimization, caching and ModSecurity WAF; limitations: retention, restore-point count and snapshot limits for ordinary VPS were not publicly quantified, no verified custom-image or custom-ISO workflow was found✓
- Network orchestration control plane: WHMCS client portal with Proxmox-backed VM controls, CPU, memory, network-traffic and disk-I/O charts, VNC console, manual snapshots, plan upgrades and PTR-record controls, public network-status page; network: one IPv4 address per current plan, provider-marketed dedicated bandwidth allocation on 10 Gbps network ports, included monthly transfer from 1 TB to 32 TB depending on plan, paid transfer additions in the live checkout from 1 TB through 100 TB, DDoS protection advertised for every service; limitations: VPSBenchmarks records no administrator REST API, no IPv6 and no mobile-friendly control interface, the SLA excludes external attacks, including DDoS, from its guarantees even though mitigation is advertised, no current floating-IP, private-network or public bandwidth-pool workflow was verified✓
- Firewall ordinary vps: VPSBenchmarks records a provider-control-panel firewall as present, but the public ARPHost material inspected does not define its rule model or limits.; secure web host: Imunify360 firewall and ModSecurity web-application firewall are included in Secure WEB HOST VPS.; guest firewall: Full root access also permits guest-managed firewalls such as nftables, iptables or ufw; this is guest software, not a provider-edge feature.✓
- Load balancer—
- DNS management reverse dns: PTR records are managed under My Services in the client portal.; secure web host: Webuzo manages DNS settings and the checkout asks for NS1 and NS2 prefixes.; limitation: A general-purpose cloud DNS service tied to ordinary VPS was not verified.✓
- Git integrations—
- Container registry—
Support
scope: Ordinary Virtual Servers are self-managed by default and sell optional automated or hourly managed-service packages. Secure WEB HOST VPS is marketed as fully managed, with maintenance, security updates, optimization and monitoring, but its live configurator also defaults to No Managed Services; the included boundary needs confirmation.; availability commitment: The February 2026 SLA guarantees 99.99% network uptime for VPS. Under one hour of verified downtime earns no credit; one to two hours earns 3–8 percent, then each later hour adds 5 percent, capped at 100 percent. Scheduled maintenance with 48 hours' notice, customer or third-party causes, force majeure, DDoS and hacking are excluded. Credits require a ticket and good standing.; provisioning: The provider targets 5–15 minutes after payment for ordinary VPS. VPSBenchmarks measured 3,420 seconds, or 57 minutes, from order to SSH on its single March 2026 sample.; billing and cancellation: Subscriptions recur automatically. The 2025 billing policy requires cancellation through the client area or support email at least 15 days before renewal, otherwise another term can be charged; this is stricter than the older general terms' cancel-at-any-time wording.; refund conflict: Current marketing and contact pages advertise a 30-day guarantee, while the linked 2025 billing policy grants a full refund only within the first five days, excludes some accounts and provides no prorated refund. The older 2023 terms separately say all sales are final. Buyers should obtain the applicable written refund rule before purchase.
address: support@arphost.com; scope: support, cancellation and general service questions
number: +1 970-999-6032; urgent availability: 24 hours a day, seven days a week; limitation: The 2023 terms introduction retains an older +1 727 number, while its current contact section and the current site use +1 970-999-6032.
access: support portal for new and existing customers; ARPHost calls it the fastest contact method; priority targets: emergency: under 15 minutes; high: under 1 hour; normal: under 4 hours; low: under 24 hours; sla note: The SLA separately says typical replies are under 15 minutes with a five-hour maximum.
availability claim: The VPS and Secure WEB HOST pages advertise 24/7/365 US support through live chat as well as tickets and phone.; limitations: the contact page does not publish separate chat staffing hours, the response targets are provider statements rather than an independently measured commitment
What customers say
- + Positive reviewers repeatedly praise personal and knowledgeable support, responsiveness, straightforward purchases, price, migration help and server performance.
- + Trustpilot shows 84 percent five-star and 8 percent four-star ratings; several recent entries are marked Verified.
- − One four-star reviewer reports onboarding problems despite praising performance and online support. The sole one-star title says the order was refunded and the account banned; ARPHost replies that it acted on alleged payment fraud, so the underlying dispute cannot be resolved from the platform record.
- − The sample is only 12 reviews, spans hosting, bare metal, IT and communications services rather than only VPS, and the claimed profile invites customers to review. Trustpilot reports seven reviews in the prior 12 months and says ARPHost replies to all negative reviews, typically within 24 hours. Treat the score as a small customer-opinion signal, not an uptime or VPS-quality measurement.
