A curated selection: Hosting for Joomla for developers in Ukraine with DirectAdmin. We picked providers matching these criteria and sorted them by rating and real reviews.

What matters about this combination of criteria: Joomla requires proper PHP configuration and enough memory. Developers need root access, OS choice and an API for automation. Servers in Ukraine give minimal latency for a local audience. DirectAdmin is a lightweight, fast panel that saves server resources.

Bottom line: for most projects in Ukraine the ideal VPS means NVMe storage, a 99.9%+ SLA, a convenient panel and support in your language. Start with the ranking leaders above and compare them side by side.

Не предоставлять на тарифах хостинга SSL в наше время это голимый отстой.

about HostLife·9 March 2018

Bad

Кастомизации сервера нет. Убогий порт на 25мбит Возможности ставить свою ОС нет Пробного периода нет. Наверное, худший хост из тех, что я видел. Не рекомендую.

В этом году переехал на виртуальные сервера от fornex! Все работает как часики, забыл что такое проблемы с хостингом. А служба поддержки работает на ВЫСШЕМ УРОВНЕ - скорость и качество их работы радует всегда. Fornex однозначно рекомендую!
