    So I'm not too familiar with dedicated servers and I was looking for your recommendations. The server must include cpanel and WHMCS and I would like to keep it $50/month or less but I would be willing to pay up to $75

    Hello,

    There are several things you need to be clear. What will the dedicated server used for? the answer will help you to determine what the detail requirements of dedicated server you need, such as CPU, traffic, ram, operating system, managed or unmanaged, level of support, location of the server, for example if you want a server for gaming, you will likely need more powerful CPU than if you want to use it for a website. Could you tell us and we can help you more. thanks!

    Hello there,

    I think your best bet for that price, is to look into a VPS, and not a dedicated server. You will not get much of a server for that price considering a dedicated server cPanel license is roughly $30/month, and WHMCS is another $15/month. That puts you at $45/month already, without any hardware! The cPanel VPS license is much cheaper, generally around $15/month, and WHMCS stays the same price. A VPS will give you full root access, and it acts just like a dedicated server, however, you share resources with other containers on the node. VPS nodes are generally very powerful machines as well, so for around the same price as a low end dedicated machine, you are getting a powerful VPS that can out perform the dedicated server.

    Hope that helps,
    Chris

    As RHS Chris said, your budget is completely unrealistic for a dedicated server. $50 should get you a decent VPS with cPanel and WHMCS.

    I agree that it is unlikely that you will be able to get a dedicated server with your required specs. in that price range. A VPS may be the best choice for you and you can find them in the price range that you have specified.

    Is location important for you?

    Cheap dedicated servers are available form 1paket.com and hostforweb.com.
    They have stable servers which are well-balanced and they have active technicians which are online for 24 hours.

    Yeah, you'll need a VPS simply because of your budget. It's certainly possible to get a decent VPS with that amount of money; licenses included.

    You can't find a dedicated hosting provider for such a low price. You could find a quality VPS plan for your price.

    With a VPS that is definitely possible, provided you choose the right provider. A dedicated server with cPanel and WHMCS at that price range is very very difficult to get if not impossible.

    Hostigation would be awesome for the price range you're looking at, https://hostigation.com/?page=OpenVZ, a 2048MB RAM, 125GB HDD plan with WHMCS and cPanel totals to $42.50 however it is an unmanaged service so you'll have to manage the server yourself. Hostigation is only one example, there are many providers out there.
