Unless you are a server admin and know exactly what you are doing.... You need to go managed. It's kind of like owning a car - I can fix some things, but usually not, so I need to take it to the mechanic when I run into problems. The difference is I can go a week without a car, but when my server goes down in the middle of the night.... I can't wait a week for it.

I see Tony Morgan from Nat Net posted; He'll always have my business. One time we had "managed" hosting and our server went down in the wee hours of the morning. (This was many, many years ago). Somehow Tony got my cell phone number and called me at 3am in the morning my time and walked me through the problems and got us up and running again.

If you want to know how good a hosting company is..... Call their tech support number at 3am their time and see if they answer.
