How to choose the right VPS tier

The goal is to pick the smallest plan that fits the workload cleanly today, then move up the published lineup as the service grows.

01

Start with the workload, not the largest plan

Size the first deployment around current CPU, memory, storage, and bandwidth needs instead of overbuying upfront.

02

Move up tiers as the service grows

The published VPS lineup is meant to give clear jumps in resources so teams can scale without leaving the platform immediately.

03

Switch to dedicated when the architecture outgrows a VM

Reserved hardware becomes the better fit when the workload needs stronger performance consistency, larger resource envelopes, or single-tenant control.

When published VPS pricing is enough

Use the published Amherst Systems VPS tiers when your workload fits comfortably inside a standard virtual machine profile. If you need single-tenant hardware or a more specialized footprint, move into a dedicated server conversation instead of forcing it into a VM plan.

Start with published pricing for apps, internal tooling, bots, and game servers.
Scale through the existing tiers before jumping into bare metal too early.
Use a dedicated server when consistency, isolation, or resource shape matter more than elasticity.
