Flexible Linux or Windows VPS with automation tools, starting at £12.99 per month.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
iFastHosting VPS provides cloud-based, unmanaged virtual servers for developers and others who want to configure and maintain their own infrastructure. It supports Linux and Windows, with full root or administrator access, and is aimed at workloads such as databases, game servers and custom application stacks. A control panel, SSH management and a JSON API give customers different ways to manage servers and automate tasks.
The five monthly plans scale from VPS 1 at £12.99, with 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 25 GB NVMe storage and 1 TB bandwidth, to VPS 8 at £89.99, with 8 vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 320 GB NVMe storage and 10 TB bandwidth. In between, VPS 2 costs £16.99, VPS 4 costs £27.99 and VPS 6 costs £54.99 per month. Each step adds allocated resources; the service also offers resizing CPU, RAM and storage without rebuilding. The starting tier is modestly provisioned, so buyers should match the plan to their workload rather than assume the entry allocation will be enough.
Snapshots, nightly backups, DDoS protection, network isolation, and dedicated IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are among the listed capabilities. The 18 operating system images and JSON API support varied server configurations and automation, while Docker, GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, CI/CD, monitoring and logging tools are named as integrations. Support is listed as available 24/7 by ticket, chat and phone. This is a better fit for customers comfortable maintaining a server than for buyers seeking managed hosting; the unmanaged model leaves configuration and ongoing administration with the customer.
