Is the managed web hosting a good option?
After having selected the paid webhosting between the free and the paid web hosting. The next choice comes, is whether to go for the managed or the unmanaged type of hosting. Both of these have good as well as negative points to offer.
Managed type is the one where the host has the maximum control of the server. The client only leases the server he does not own it. The host will look after the administration of the server in the managed hosting. The host will not give the client any access to the configurations of the server, but the client can manage the data through ftp. Thus the host has most control of the server. And with this control the host can make modifications which may seem well to him. So there may be instances of issues between the host and client.
The perspective of the host and client may vary on the server administration, thus this situations are uncalled for.
Besides, this type of hosting is very expensive in comparison with the other types of hosting, so before taking up this service be sure that really want to spend a huge amount by opting for the managed hosting.
