This is an openvz plan you would need a KVM server to put windows on it. Sorry I did not see a Skype request from you.

Yes it would have 5 IP and yes they would be clean as we dont allow mass mailing.
You can use the tool as long as you are not mass mailing people.
Is it possible to install window server to your VPS for running social media bot? Do you provide the installation or do I have to self install?

Sorry for the delay. I have been out and not on BHW. Yes if you order a KVM server you can have windows installed on it. We would do the install for windows but you would have to set up your own program.

@CenTex Hosting you need to get in touch with me ASAP, having SERIOUS issues here that your staff is unable to address for almost a month now, ever since I migrated my entire reseller hosting to you from inmotion (which was largely okay but no adult content)

You make it seem that we have not responded several times to your 15 plus tickets that you have put in. I have already told you managed support doesn't mean updating your stuff for whmcs or fixing web site issues do to programming.
If you are not happy I am sure there are a lot of other web host that you can move to. Simply put in a cancel request and we will be glad to refund your money.

Your staff have responded to the many tickets (which i appreciate) I raised because when I asked " i'm looking at your managed vps plan with the whmcs addon, can you transfer everything from my reseller account with subaccounts over" and you responded "Yes we can migrate everything over for you. Once you place an order just put in a ticket with the hold host info and we will move it for you."
I placed my trust to you on most of my web properties, and there was hickups after hickups and I was patient while they were getting resolved by your team, over the course of the last 4 weeks
your staff wasn't asked to "updating your stuff for whmcs or fixing web site issues do to programming.", whmcs and the websites were all in working order before the migration. It was issues with restoring the accounts that your staff had me manually backed up and ftp over, unexpected shutdown of the entire server, blocked access to mySQL and other services, denying that i ordered managed service, denying that softaculous was included in my package, and the worst today, was sending my ONE first email with a 13kb attachment to another BHW member and IP was blacklisted by office365!
instead of fixing the problem, you chose to downplay the issues to the buyer and deflect responsibility, then just avoid the issue altogether by suggesting refund.... this is dozens of websites that are in operation
perhaps you're right, now i have to move dozens of sites back and hope nothing was too F'ed up in the process.
BUYER BEWARE: claims of ability to migrate is NOT true, you WILL face many issues on importing, restoral, service access issues, unexpected shut down, ordered service mismatch, banned IPs, and a boss who'll just say refund when there's a problem (this isn't just a commodity service like proxies that you can swap out in 5 minutes.... it's dozens of websites from dozens of subaccounts)

Not at any time have we denied that you had managed service or softaculous. When you open the ticket that softaculous was missing we fixed that and added it on right then.
Yes we offer migration. If you have full access to your sites, and understand how your sites are set up then yes migration is easy. We have migrated hundreds of clients sites with no issues. As well as bought out other web host and migrated there sites with no issues.
Every ticket that you have open had been addressed and fixed. When you have accounts then sub accounts and so on yes depending on how settings were on the old how and the new host things will be different as you have open tickets we have addressed those for you. Tickets take longer if you open a ticket and just say my site is not working. Yes there will be several emails back and fourth on getting that fixed.
As far as you getting your IP banned we have no control over that. The IP's were clean when they were given to you and your first blast Microsoft blocks you, dont control this nor do we allow mass mailing.
Yes for things like my health in whmcs shows these things no we are not going to update your whmcs for you. That is not what managed hosting covers. I am pretty sure no managed web hosting plan does that.
As far as site shutting down right after you moved over, that was addressed as well. You migrated from a reseller hosting plan to a VPS plan. The VPS plan you chose you ran out of hard drive space as well as resources. I sent you an email about this and upgraded your plan for you. I waved the upgrade cost on the first invoice. Since that upgrade that I Did for you your server has not shut down once.
I wish you the best of luck and maybe your next web host will be a better fit for you.

Hey, I used to get a Hosting package that cost like ~$12 semi-annually when the code given in the OP was applied to the cart. Now, that package is gone from the site. The package had 1 addon domain, 10GB Storage and 50GB Bandwidth. I have 2-3 of those packages but can't place new orders since I can't find them on the site.
The service name was "Light SSD". How can I place new orders for this package?

That was for a shared hosting plan. We changed up our shared hosting plans about 4 months ago. We used to have 3 different packages and move them to just one which offers better options like unlimited add on domains and so on. Our shared hosting plan now is 7.95 per month you can use promo 25wow to get 25% off.
Or we have a promo to get 2 years shared hosting for 79.95. the link is here for that option. https://www.centexhosting.com/2yrbusinesspromo.php

My websites are being hosted by Centex Hosting from last months. I have KVM SSD 2GB Managed
VPS Hosting Managed Plans, Before I was with haste hosting,
I received a email stating that "Hastehosting Acquisition By CENTEX Hosting INC."
After couple of weeks i found my website was down.
I raised tickets and asked for the solution, Every time i asked them (centex Hosting) , The support always Wrote like "I am looking into this and will update you shortly." Its been more than 5 days and still same answer "I am looking into this and will update you shortly." , Yesterday (4th day) they told that all the datas are corrupted and again same answer ""I am looking into this and will update you shortly."
I am really tired with them, its a big pain for me.
I am loosing my traffic and $$, I suggest all stay away from them.

First let me be the first to say sorry for the issues that you are having. Second with CenTex taking over Hastehost has noting to do with the issue at hand. You were already on our servers has Hastehost leased the servers from us. The issue you are have as well as a few others would have happen even if we did not take over do to config issues. Backups that were supposed to be done not done or done wrong and loaded in different places. I have already responded to you in a ticket saying that I have found a backup and its loading as we speak. We did expect any issues with the transition as only think that was going to change was the client portal login. We are working hard to get the sites that were affected back loaded or moved to a new server.

I tried out a VPS from @CenTex Hosting, and I will say that the specs are very good for the price, especially with the discount. Tickets were responded to promptly, and even where issues could not be immediately resolved, the staff was quick to give updates and pleasant to deal with.
With that being said, there are a few things that should be noted.
1. "Managed Support" is closer to what other hosting companies call semi-managed. This include reinstalling the OS, reinstalling cPanel on request, and running OS updates, but it does not include configuration or setup beyond the basic cPanel installation. For the price this about the level of service I would expect, but if you're looking for fully-managed you may want to check out another provider, or a third-party management service.
2. Due at least in part to #1, the primary response to configuration issues is a server wipe. For the cost of managed support this really isn't an issue, but you may want to ensure you have offsite backups.
3. The auto-deploy scripts seem to be hit-and-miss, so my suggestion to management would be to switch over to completely manual deployment and verifying the specs.
Unfortunately this service did not fit my immediate needs, but if you're looking for a cheap unmanaged VPS they're certainly worth checking out.

Thanks for the feedback. I will look into the auto install as we use softaculous like most others. Not sure on the managed support where you got that info. Yes we will config the server setup and install cpanel and set up name servers. But its not going to include updating your website or fixing website coding issues. But thanks for the feedback I will bring this up in our next meeting.

Softaculous was working great, I'm referring to the server configuration itself. The VPS did not match the upgraded specs that I ordered, so I had to submit a ticket to get the upgrade applied.
According to the support ticket, managed support includes setting up the server, setting up cpanel and keeping the server updated on security settings. Since I had to specifically request reinstallation of cPanel after a server wipe, and the configuration did not go beyond the installation script, it seems that more complex configuration is not included with your paid managed support.

To my knowledge we have never not done a config that a client has asked for unless it was some application that we have never worked with in that case would would recommend contacting someone else about setting that up. Was there something that you were needing set up that wasn't that I can look into? For managed vps plans the default would be to install centos set up cpanel and secure it and that would be it. If client needed something else done all they would have to do is put in a ticket and ask for it.

When I purchased the server, I ordered an upgrade to the hardware. When I received the VPS, it was set to the default hardware specs.
Once the upgrade was was activated on my server, achieved through a wipe and reinstall of Centos (see above), I had to submit a second request for cPanel to be reinstalled. Once this was done, Softaculous was still missing.
