If you want your own private server dedicated to your business, but desire to leave the software and OS updates to someone else, Verio’s Managed Private Servers may be the perfect fit. Managed Private Servers (MPS) give you complete flexibility to control and customize your server’s configuration with virtual root access to the OS layer where you can load applications specific to your business needs, while leaving the day to day operating system and core environment maintenance to Verio.

Managed Private Servers (MPS) are completely private, dedicated servers allocated 100% exclusively to you. You won’t share resources with other users, which gives you the flexibility to choose the perfect blend of administrative control and sophisticated technology needed to host your application.

We Manage the Hardware Details and Server Administration

Unlike a simple dedicated server solution, when you choose a Verio MPS solution we handle the day-to-day system administration like OS updates, server software patches and upgrades, basic security tasks and backups. This leaves you free to focus on building and delivering your applications and business, not your server
