Windows VPS 2026: Windows Server hosting
A Windows Server VPS is essential for ASP.NET, 1C, MS SQL and other Windows-based applications. We compare providers by price, configuration and licensing quality.
Windows VPS costs slightly more than Linux equivalents due to the licence cost. Note that most providers include the Windows Server licence in the plan price. Connection is via RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). Ideal for: 1C, MS SQL Server, ASP.NET and corporate systems.
When you actually need Windows. Linux is cheaper and enough for most sites (PHP, Python, Node). Choose Windows only when the application requires it: 1C, MS SQL Server, ASP.NET/.NET Framework, apps needing RDP access for several users, or specific accounting/corporate software. With no such requirement, a Linux VPS is cheaper and faster.
Licence and configuration. Check the version (Windows Server 2019 or 2022) and whether the licence is included — otherwise bring-your-own-licence (BYOL) adds $15–30/mo. Windows uses more RAM than Linux: at least 2 GB for the OS itself, so for 1C or MS SQL take 4–8 GB RAM and an NVMe disk. Several simultaneous RDP sessions require an RDS (CAL) licence.
RDP security. RDP exposed to the internet is a common attack target. The basic minimum: change the default 3389 port, enable Network Level Authentication, restrict access by IP via firewall and use strong passwords. For critical systems, put a VPN in front of RDP. An entry Windows VPS starts at $8–12/mo, a config for 1C or MS SQL is $20–40/mo.
Bottom line: for most projects in Ukraine the ideal VPS means NVMe storage, 99.9%+ uptime, a convenient panel and support in your language. Start with the ranking leaders above and compare them side by side.

Оценка хостинга 10 из 10. Радует техподдержка, быстрый ответ сервера и тарифы. Мб буду остальные сайты тоже на этот хост переводить
Хороший хост, пользуюсь уже более года. Квалифицированная поддержка и есть мой любимый способ оплаты через монобанк, принимают карты. Претензий к стабильности работы у меня нет
Сутки пытался связаться с поддержкой. Операция не завершилась успехом. О чем дальше говорить? Не рекомендую.
Техподдержка вообще отстойная, жду ответа от 3 до 4 часов, решают проблему так же! Нету никаких онлайн мессенджеров для быстрой связи, есть телефон и тот стационарный через который не дозвонится никак... В ОБЩЕМ НЕ РЕКОМЕНДУЮ!!!!!!!!!
