What are your Self-managed Server requirements?

More than two decades of experience in the hosting industry have taught us that there is no universal solution that works for everyone. We always keep in mind that every business has its own set of requirements. In addition to our Managed Servers, we also offer four types of Self-managed Servers, also known as Unmanaged Servers, allowing us to provide an array of servers from highly advanced to cost-effective.

Since we are convinced of the quality of our offerings and our service, we offer you as a customer the option to cancel monthly. Once with us, you won't want to leave.

Do you wish to delegate some tasks? Then you may outsource these to our Snel.com engineers. We offer many add-ons such as: backups, proactive monitoring, and weekly updates to lighten your workload.

Cloud VPS


Cloud VPS was the first virtual private server product in our Self-managed server offering. Our Cloud VPS platform is designed for maximum redundancy, scalability, and performance.

Super service with Snel.com.
Website is amazing and easy to use, not one of those pre-setup hosting panels.
Friendly staff and they even helped me out with custom request and setting something up i didn't manage myself.

Richard Chard

I have used snelserver.com servers long enough for now. One of my projects requires a lot of bandwidth and fast server and that’s why I decided to give them a go. So far I have no downtime and fast server. So I got what I have been looking for. I haven’t contacted their support so often, but when I did - I got help from them pretty fast. I believe I pay them honest price.Now thinking of moving other projects to them
