Keep checkout and logins fast during sales and peak hours, with no noisy neighbours.
Virtual machines, containers and test environments with full root and VNC access.
Accounting, ERP and remote desktop workloads on Windows, as well as every major Linux distribution.
Every VDS has its own CPU cores and RAM, reserved for your applications and never shared with other servers on the host.
Proactive monitoring and stable, modern hardware keep your applications running without interruptions.
NVMe SSD storage and Intel and AMD CPUs with hyper-threading for fast, consistent performance.
Handle data-heavy applications and high traffic volumes with no extra fees for bandwidth.
Add backup space to any server so your critical data is always recoverable. Backups are not included unless you add them.
Around-the-clock expert support to help with setup, migrations and troubleshooting.
How it works
Pick the CPU cores, RAM and NVMe storage you need. Not sure? Our team will help you size it.
Choose a Linux distribution or Windows, and the data centre location, when you order.
Add our managed option, backups, extra IP addresses or storage at checkout.
You receive root and VNC access by email once your server is set up. Pay with M-Pesa, card or bank transfer.
Our virtual dedicated servers bring together the advantages of dedicated servers and VPS: a hybrid of the two. Like a VPS, several VDS run on one host system, but each VDS has its own dedicated hardware resources, CPU cores and RAM used only by your applications.
That makes a VDS a good fit for any kind of virtualisation project and for real-time sensitive applications. You get full root access and VNC access, servers are provisioned as quickly as a VPS, and you can add extra storage, so a VDS offers more hardware options than a VPS: in effect, a slice of a dedicated server.
We use only high-quality components such as Intel and AMD CPUs. They cost more, but they give greater stability and performance when running virtualisation.
Our virtualisation is based on KVM and Proxmox, which have a long track record as stable, reliable technologies, and we constantly monitor the load on each host system.
ERP, accounting, CRM and point-of-sale systems your whole team relies on every day.
MySQL, PostgreSQL and other databases that need memory and CPU reserved for them.
VoIP, game servers, streaming and trading tools that suffer from any slowdown.
Your own virtual machines, Docker and Kubernetes nodes, on CPU and memory reserved for you.
Large shops, news sites and portals that have outgrown shared hosting and VPS.
Windows servers for remote staff and line-of-business applications.

This has to be one of the best (reponsive) service I have experienced in my life. The useless host i was using couldn't fix the issues I had in 48 hours. I switched to Hostnali and it was fixed in less than 2 hours. You won't regret using this service.

The after-sales support is incredible. I was consistently impressed by the customer support team’s responsiveness; they were available at all hours, including late at night, providing prompt assistance whenever I needed it.

No. A VDS is a virtual server on KVM, sharing a powerful host with other servers, but its CPU cores and RAM are reserved for you alone. You get dedicated-server performance with the quick setup and flexibility of a VPS.
You choose the data centre location when you place your order, so you can pick the one that suits your users.
Yes. Your VDS runs on KVM and supports virtualisation, so you can run your own virtual machines inside it, as well as Docker and Kubernetes.
Yes. Choose Windows or any major Linux distribution when you order. You get Administrator (Windows) or root (Linux) access and a VNC console.
Yes. Every VDS includes DDoS protection, with no extra bandwidth fees.
Every VDS comes with 1 IPv4 address and a /64 IPv6 subnet. Additional IPv4 addresses are available.
Yes. Servers are self-managed by default; add our managed option when you order and our team looks after updates, security and monitoring.
Yes. We migrate websites for free, and our team can help you plan the move of larger applications and databases.
On a VPS, CPU and RAM are shared fairly between servers on the same host. On a VDS, your CPU cores and RAM are dedicated to you alone, so performance stays consistent under load.
Yes. You get full root access (Administrator on Windows) and VNC console access.
Not by default, but you can add backups when you order, and a managed option if you want us to look after the server. We strongly recommend backups for production servers.
