If a client opts for self-management of the VPS, the only service provided by Hostico will be the provision of an SSH connection with root access to the ordered VPS. This option does not include the services mentioned on the Secured page.

Administration of a VPS by Hostico involves the installation of the operating system (Almalinux 8 or Ubuntu 22.04 depending on the panel), the installation of an administration panel (one chosen by the client from those offered by Hostico), the installation of optimization and monitoring scripts, technical support, and 24/7 service monitoring. In the case of this type of administration, the client will not receive SSH access at the root level and will have access to the command line only upon request and only at the user level without special rights. This option includes the services mentioned on the Secured page.
