Hi im just in the process of switching my resellers hosting account (with hostgator) to uk based servers but im very tempted to go down the route of a VPS.

I know that the plans you have are fully managed and one of my questions is - How much control does the customer have??

Next question is!!!

I have around 30 Clients. Pretty much all of them are Joomla sites. There are one or two large sites where one of the databases is over 120Mb. My question is will the Starter package be ok to run my sites??

Also if i did order a VPS and added cPanel/whm would everything be setup and ready to go???

Basiclly i want to add a test account in whm first so that i can see whats what then if all is ok i wanted to then transfer all my accounts from hostgator to Web hosting uk using the whm account import.

Oh yep and its is going to be a Linux CentOs 5.0 with cPanel/Whm.

Any information would be greatful as im a complete newbie at VPS its unbelievable. (but i am trying to learn.)

Thanks in advance
Chris

You have full control over the vps if you want, but as its amanged you can also let Web Hosting UK do the work for you! It makes it great to learn the ropes and find your way around. You sould be able to bring your accounts over as you described.
