How Does Managed Hosting Compare to Self Managed Hosting?

When you’re building a business, there are a lot of decisions you have to make, and whether or not you’re a technical wizard or have a large enough budget for an IT department, you’re going to need a website and technical support. For a short while you’ll be able to get by managing a website on your own, but once you experience any kind of growth, you’re going to need one of two things: in depth technical knowledge (and time to troubleshoot), or some kind of IT management. This is the crux of the argument between managed hosting and self managed hosting.

In terms of cost, most often, this type of hosting will cost you less overall than self hosting. If you plan on running a company and you’re the mastermind behind the operation, you can’t be wasting your valuable time and resources (think of it like human CPU) on internet technologies. You have to be concentrating on the major infrastructures of the business, and you won’t be able to do that if you’re dealing with code, uploads, downloads, widgets, and tinkering with appearances on the web. More than that, you’ll have to deal with every hiccup that arises and put down the rest of your work to do so. Instead of doing it yourself, you’ll have to hire an IT professional whose salary, in the end, will far exceed the small additional cost of paying for hosting, which features a service that will do all that for you.

In terms of what else a managed hosting service professional team offers you, they will take over management of the website so you don’t have to deal with any of the small tasks that are necessary for daily upkeep and keeping your site online and protected. Self hosting won’t offer any kind of security package other than what you put in place yourself, but a hosting team will take care of security updates, creating server patches, and generally ensuring that on the front end of your website there is never a single disturbance or customer or client issue.

Both methods of management, however, will offer similar packages in terms of hardware, software, and traditional hosting provisions. Self hosting will offer you server space (dedicated or shared, as you need it), a previously agreed upon level of storage and bandwidth rate, and of course system reboots and replacements for any failed or faulty hardware should you need it. However, it won’t offer you any kind of system administration on top of that; a hosting service will offer you a trained, professional team whose sole responsibility is to deal with server issues and protect your website. Managed hosting will offer the same hardware and packages, only with the additional knowledge and expertise of an administrative team added on, and so the price will reflect that difference, but the difference shouldn’t be egregious. Most hosting companies will have levels of service that you can choose between so that you’re not paying for more than your company really needs.

What it comes down to is whether or not you have the time and mental brainpower to spare to pay careful attention to the maintenance of your website or not. If you don’t, you’ll either have to pay an IT professional an additional salary, on top of hosting costs and the salaries of employees you already provide for, or you can choose to take advantage managed hosting. This service will take the guesswork and intimidation out of web servers and ensure that you always have a professional website ready to show the world.
