Traditionally data centres were on premise, but now there are also private (hosted) and public cloud, and hybrid options. Some companies are pushing for cloud first, there are pros and cons for all options. Which is the best option for you?
VMhosts can help you achieve the right balance of cost, reliability, flexibility, and manageability.
Selecting IT Infrastructure has never been easier or more cost-effective than with VMhosts VMware Cloud hosting. Cloud hosting gives you access to computing resources without the need to buy, manage or maintain expensive IT equipment. Data processing takes place in our secure data centres on the latest and fastest hardware.
If you need more computing power, simply scale up the resources. If you need to scale down, then capacity can be reduced in line with your requirements. Because we offer transparent and responsive charging, you pay only for what you use. This reduces your capex and procurement costs and protects you from depreciation and ongoing maintenance expenditure. It also provides you with a hosted cloud infrastructure that is always tailored to your precise requirements.
VMhosts also offers a fully managed service where technical experts monitor and maintain your environment 24/7/365. You can also just purchase the resources you need and self-manage the system yourself. Whichever approach you choose, VMhosts provides you with secure, fast and cost-effective cloud computing that can be up and running in minutes. Because we know our business, we allow you to focus on yours.
VMhosts’ private cloud provides a highly performant, highly resilient UK-based environment that’s managed for you. VMhosts can also migrate your data centre from its current location.
VMhosts can help you successfully move IT services into Microsoft Azure. VMhosts will manage your Azure tenancy to optimise both technical and cost benefits.
Highly beneficial technologies, previously only viable in large enterprise data centres are now affordably available. VMhosts can help you to modernise your data centre, with optional management.
With a well-designed hybrid data centre you can combine the benefits of on-premise and cloud or of multiple cloud environments. VMhosts can provide design, implementation and management.
VMhosts prides itself on its dedication to quality, premium, tried and tested products. Using our Infrastructure as a Service gives you a multitude of benefits. Below are just a few:
Our 24/7 support prides itself on flexibility and great communication. If you ever have a problem then we always do our best to make sure you know exactly what we are doing to fix it.
We provided free nightly full system image backups with 7 day retention for all VM’s hosted with us. We also provide an optional VMback service powered by Veeam providing enterprise backup and recovery for Guest OS file and application protection.
100% uptime is simply a myth, even the largest organisations such as Facebook, Twitter, Amazon, and Microsoft Azure will have problems from time to time. The missed SLA compensations offered are often worthless, coupled with poor communication. In downtime situations communication is key. During the unlikely event of any server down situations we are contactable 24/7. You can talk to a real engineer who can give you accurate updates.
Compare apples for apples and clouds for clouds. Our Cloud is powered by VMware vSphere, the industry leading virtualisation platform. We have absolute confidence in VMware’s stability and support.
Storage is absolutely critical for any cloud service. Some providers will use opensource solutions with only community based support to help lower costs. At VMhosts we are proud to be a technology focused company, by investing in enterprise class storage solutions backed by 24/7 vendor support, VMhosts can guarantee performance, availability and security of your data.
Leveraging Storage Snapshots, Veeam Backup services and Zerto Disaster Recovery services your data is in safe hands. When it comes to your data, it is good to be paranoid.
All virtual machines appliances are protected by VMware HA and other proactive availability features such as vMotion and Storage vMotion. We have multiple 100% synchronous copies of your data allowing us to automatically recover and power on your machines in the event of hardware failure. We have three datacentres located in Stevenage, Enfield and Harlow separated by a minimum of 10 miles as the crow flies. With multiple low latency Gigabit interconnects between the two locations, we can help customers build mission critical business solutions with extreme levels of availability and protection.
Leveraging Infinio, our servers utilise both RAM and NVME storage to provide superfast server side read caching. This allows us to produce incredible read latencies of 0.1ms response times.
Our Modern Data Centre solutions are built on powerful platforms like OnApp and VMware, giving you the flexibility, performance, and control your business demands. Whether you’re running private, public, or hybrid environments, we help you maximise efficiency, simplify management, and ensure high availability across your virtual infrastructure.
We know a cloud-first approach isn’t for everyone. Whether upgrading your virtual infrastructure or building a new on-premise setup, we bring cloud benefits to your office. Partnering with HPE and Dell, VMhosts offers the best prices on SANs and upgrades, with expert installation for peak performance.
Our platform is underpinned by VMware. We believe in using premium products and not open source solutions. This is a tried and tested enterprise grade platform to build your hosted solution on.

As businesses move to agile mobile solutions such as Office 365, cyber criminals are exploiting this choice, to many Office 365 is new technology platform. Once a business has migrated key services to these always on services they become dependent on their availability and make the assumption the platform is secure by default.
