Its operating-system field is free text rather than a controlled image selector.; network boundary: The Custom description says a 10 Gbit/s server port and dedicated link up to 5 Gbit/s, while its published transfer-to-link table maps the selectable quotas only from 30/30 to 500/500 Mbit/s. The table is preserved as the concrete selection mapping; the unexplained 5 Gbit/s ceiling is not attributed to the benchmark.; billing boundary: The six predefined plans expose monthly, quarterly, semiannual and annual choices. The longer totals correspond to approximately 5%, 10% and 20% discounts respectively. The Custom plan exposes monthly billing only. Benchmarks use the current no-commitment Custom amount., name: Windows Cloud VPS; category: currently_orderable_windows_administrator_kvm_virtual_machine; location: Control Engineering's own Zagreb data center, Croatia; platform: KVM, Virtualizor, RDP Administrator access, one public IPv4 address and provider-described dedicated CPU/RAM/storage resources; current standard monthly plans eur: tier: Starter Windows VPS; vcpu: 1; memory gib: 1; storage gb: 40; storage type: PureSSD 6 Gbps hardware RAID; transfer tb: 1; dedicated link mbps: 500; monthly: 29.99, tier: Advanced Windows VPS; vcpu: 2; memory gib: 2; storage gb: 60; storage type: PureSSD 6 Gbps hardware RAID; transfer tb: 2; dedicated link mbps: 1000; monthly: 49.99, tier: Ultimate Windows VPS; vcpu: 4; memory gib: 4; storage gb: 100; storage type: PureSSD 6 Gbps hardware RAID; transfer tb: 3; dedicated link mbps: 1000; monthly: 74.99, tier: Corporate Windows VPS; vcpu: 8; memory gib: 8; storage gb: 200; storage type: PureSSD 6 Gbps hardware RAID; transfer tb: 4; dedicated link mbps: 1000; monthly: 99.99, tier: Custom Windows VPS minimum configuration; vcpu: 1; memory gib: 1; storage gb: 20; storage type: PureSSD 6 Gbps hardware RAID; transfer tb: not_found; monthly: 19.99; customization: The live Custom form offers 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 CPU cores; 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 GiB RAM; and 20, 30, 40, 60, 100, 200 or 500 GB SSD, plus eight current Windows choices. It has no selectable monthly-bandwidth field.; transfer boundary: The Custom description says allowed monthly bandwidth is up to 30 TB and a specification tab displays a generic quota table, but the order form exposes no quantity or baseline selection. No included Custom Windows transfer amount is inferred.; billing boundary: The four predefined plans expose monthly, quarterly, semiannual and annual choices with approximately 5%, 10% and 20% term discounts. Custom Windows exposes monthly billing only and controls the benchmark., name: Dedicated servers, colocation, shared/reseller hosting and extra services; category: adjacent_or_nonqualifying_services; service model: The provider also sells bare metal, colocation, shared/reseller hosting, domains, certificates, backup and managed services. Bare metal and colocation are not virtual machines; shared hosting does not establish administrator control. Optional network, backup and management add-ons are recorded only where they affect the qualifying VPS service.
- Operating systems
- current predefined linux selector: AlmaLinux 8 x86_64, AlmaLinux 9 x86_64, AlmaLinux 10 x86_64, CentOS 6 x86_64, CentOS 7 x86_64, CentOS 8 x86_64, CentOS 9 x86_64, CentOS 10 x86_64, Debian 8 x86_64, Debian 9 x86_64, Debian 10 x86_64, Debian 11 x86_64, Debian 12 x86_64, Fedora 34 x86_64, Oracle Linux 8 x86_64, Oracle Linux 9 x86_64, Oracle Linux 10 x86_64, Rocky Linux 8 x86_64, Rocky Linux 9 x86_64, Rocky Linux 10 x86_64, openSUSE 15 x86_64, Ubuntu 18 x86_64, Ubuntu 20 x86_64, Ubuntu 22 x86_64, Ubuntu 24 x86_64; linux scope: The exact 25-entry selector is exposed on the six predefined Linux plans. The live Custom Linux form instead requires free-text OS input; the marketing claim of 40+ or 80+ distributions is not treated as an exact Custom image catalog.; current windows selector: Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2025, Windows 10 LTSB, Windows 10 LTSC, Windows 11 LTSC; windows plan scope: Starter exposes Server 2012 and Windows 10 LTSB; Advanced adds Server 2016 and Windows 10 LTSC; Ultimate, Corporate and Custom expose all eight current labels. The company service page calls the Server images Datacenter editions and Windows 10 Enterprise; the store abbreviations are preserved rather than silently extending those qualifications to every label.; license boundary: The Windows Custom page says its price includes all licenses, upgrades and proactive monthly maintenance. It does not publish the license key model, activation rights, downgrade rights or post-cancellation entitlement.; lifecycle warning: The selector includes legacy or end-of-life releases such as CentOS 6/7/8, Debian 8/9/10, Fedora 34 and Ubuntu 18. Their presence in checkout establishes current selection, not security support or upstream lifecycle status.; custom iso: not_found
- Virtualization
- hypervisor: KVM; guest access: Linux plans publish SSH root access; Windows plans publish RDP Administrator access. The company service pages independently describe administrator access for the Zagreb VPS families.; customer control plane: Virtualizor lets the VPS user start, stop, restart and manage the VM through a web GUI. The product specification also describes an account-usage traffic graph.; addressing: One public IPv4 address is included. Up to eight can be requested; the current extra-service catalog lists additional Croatian IPv4 addresses at EUR 4.99 per month.; reinstall console and snapshots: not_found; ipv6: not_found; reverse dns: not_found; public customer api: not_found; backup boundary: No included VPS backup entitlement is published. A separate EUR 14.99/month VPS Backup service advertises daily, weekly, monthly and annual backups plus complete database backup, without a public restore SLA or exact retention count.
- CPU isolation
- benchmark classification: dedicated; basis: Both current company service pages explicitly describe the VPS resources, including CPU, as dedicated. The company history says it established a no-overselling rule under which every resource must be dedicated and says that rule remains in force. This satisfies the directory's explicit dedicated-vCPU wording rule for the logical CPU allocations.; processor: The current company service pages name Intel Xeon E5-2680, while the store describes custom CPU cores as Intel Xeon at 3.2 GHz. No generation-specific mapping per live order is published.; physical core mapping: not_found; hardware thread mapping: not_found; pinning or numa policy: not_found; numeric oversubscription ratio: not_found; nano boundary: Nano Linux explicitly caps its single listed CPU assignment at 50%. Other predefined Linux plans state 100% per listed core. The Custom benchmark publishes a selected core count but no comparable percentage cap. Dedicated classification denotes the provider's explicit logical-resource promise and does not establish an entire physical core or both SMT siblings.
Features
- App installation guest managed: Linux root and Windows Administrator access permit customer installation of compatible software inside the VM.; provider assisted: The paid Fully Managed Support service includes package-manager installations, module/extension work, automation and application-stack upgrades or migrations, but explicitly excludes custom software/script installations such as its listed multimedia example.; native app marketplace: not_found✓
- Templates & images os images: The predefined Linux order forms expose the exact 25 choices recorded under operating systems; Windows plan forms expose plan-specific subsets of eight current choices.; custom linux boundary: Custom Linux accepts a free-text OS request and does not expose a controlled image selector.; snapshots: not_found; custom iso: not_found; backup boundary: Backup is a separately priced service and is not represented as an included template or snapshot feature.✓
- Network orchestration control plane: Virtualizor exposes start, stop, restart and general VPS management; the product specification describes traffic monitoring through an Account Usage graph.; addressing: One Croatian public IPv4 address is included. Additional IPv4 addresses are EUR 4.99/month and available for VPS; IPv6 and reverse-DNS controls are not published.; bandwidth and link addons: Additional monthly transfer costs EUR 4.99 per 1 TB and is advertised up to 100 TB. Additional dedicated link speed costs EUR 4.99 per 20 Mbit/s and is advertised up to 10 Gbit/s.; private networks floating ips and bgp: not_found; public customer api: not_found✓
- Firewall guest managed: Administrator/root access permits an operating-system firewall inside the guest.; optional provider assistance: The EUR 249.99/month Fully Managed Support add-on explicitly includes firewall setup and troubleshooting.; provider native network firewall: not_found; boundary: No self-service security-group, edge-firewall or included managed-firewall object is published for base VPS.✓
- Load balancer—
- DNS management optional provider assistance: The paid Fully Managed Support add-on explicitly includes DNS configuration.; adjacent service: CROWEB.HOST separately sells domain registration and renewal.; vm native authoritative dns: not_found; reverse dns: not_found; boundary: No included self-service authoritative-zone service integrated with the VPS control plane is published.✓

Support
base scope: The qualifying plans provide customer root/Administrator control. Their product pages also say the price includes system upgrades and proactive monthly maintenance, but do not define a task list, response target or guest-application coverage for that included maintenance.; paid management: Fully Managed Support is a separate EUR 249.99 monthly add-on covering broad server, network, boot, package, DNS, script/website troubleshooting, automation, firewall, mail, software migration, Apache-module and backup-configuration work; it excludes custom software/script installations.; ticketing: The public osTicket support center accepts new tickets, lets customers track status and retains request history. It advertises 24/7 customer support but publishes no numeric first-response or resolution SLA.; availability sla: The live VPS specifications publish 99.9% guaranteed availability excluding scheduled maintenance. For critical-system failure they describe a 5% monthly-fee credit for each 30 minutes of downtime, capped at 100% of the affected month's charge; measurement and credit language remains provider-controlled and no automatic-credit mechanism is stated.; network sla boundary: The same specification discusses next-month network-outage credits but the public table is incomplete. No additional threshold or percentage beyond the stated critical-failure rule is inferred.; backups: No base backup is stated. Optional VPS Backup costs EUR 14.99/month and advertises daily, weekly, monthly and annual server/database backups, without exact retention counts, customer controls or a recovery-time/recovery-point objective.; cancellation: The public Terms require notice 14 days before service expiration and publish escalating late-cancellation charges of 10%, 30%, 50%, 80% or 100% depending on how late notice arrives.; refund boundary: The generic refund page describes a 14-day window but also excludes downloadable software and digital/media services, applies physical-item language and says sale items are not refundable. It does not clearly promise a VPS-specific money-back guarantee; applicability should be confirmed before purchase.; governing law: Croatian law; tax boundary: The current public product and configuration pages show EUR amounts but do not label them VAT-inclusive or VAT-exclusive. Anonymous checkout did not establish a durable address-specific tax result, so final VAT treatment remains unknown and no tax component is reverse-engineered.
info@croweb.host is the published company address; sales@croweb.host appears on the refund page. Technical requests are directed through the ticket system rather than a separately published support mailbox.
+385 1 7987790 is the published company/sales number. No base-VPS telephone-support SLA or after-hours technical hotline is published.
The public support center provides new-ticket submission, ticket-status lookup and complete request histories; a valid email address is required.
The current storefront embeds a CROWEB.HOST chat/leave-a-message widget. No guaranteed staffing schedule or response target is published for the widget.
What customers say
- + The five-review profile reports five recommendations and no opposed ratings. Visible reviews praise reliability/uptime, responsive support, fair pricing and help with VPS or SSL work.
- − The newest visible review is dated January 2015, and the five-item sample mixes VPS, reseller hosting and web-development experiences. Its perfect historical aggregate is too small and stale to characterize the current 2026 VPS catalog reliably.
