Colocation FAQ

Colocation or

Dedicated?

All too often clients send in a homemade server that’s not designed for a 24x7 data centre environment. Their aim is to save a few pounds in rental costs but this can often prove to be a false economy when something goes bang at 4am in the morning requiring an engineer callout to escort the client on to site!

However, there are of course instances where renting a Dedicated Server is either not possible or not practical, especially when bespoke hardware is a necessity. In these situations it is important to consider factors such as engineer callout fees and the possibility of keeping hardware spares onsite.

In most instances it may work out more cost effective and comforting to rent a UK Dedicated Server from RackSRV, as you can rest safe in the knowledge that we will quickly deal with any hardware issues as we keep most parts in stock leaving you to focus your time and effort on more important things.
