VPS hosting has basically the same purpose, offers the same type of service, and functions as dedicated servers, except that VPS hosting is more affordable, making it more accessible to a wider base of users. In addition, VPS hosting utilizes the most basic functions, hence it is not complicated to maintain. Thus, VPS hosting offers real value for one's money.
VPS hosting are classified into three types of hosting services namely, managed hosting, unmanaged hosting and unmetered hosting. With managed VPS hosting, the server provides the tools for monitoring and controlling the virtual machine. Some virtual private servers offer customized dedicated server configurations managed by certified experts 24/7 and all year round. Other managed VPSes provide dedicated support teams built around one's specific web hosting needs. There are also VPSes that tender domain name sales to businesses while other VPSes take full control of one's operating system environment. Because virtually all the tasks involved with web hosting a particular client's site are administered, managed hosting is the most expensive of the three. With unmanaged VPS hosting, clients have lesser external support from virtual private servers; however, clients are not left entirely to their own devices.
Most hosting providers still provide a certain level of backing and assistance for all their dedicated hosting packages, including hardware repairs and maintenance, and additional technical assistance particularly on software installation and configuration. Other minimal services offered include reboot and SSH console. Such additional technical support requires additional payment but it is still relatively cheaper than is usually charged with a fully-managed VPS hosting package. Last but not the least, unmetered VPS hosting is similar to unmanaged VPS hosting except that a preset bitrate is offered. This means that the hosting services provided are limited and will not exceed the fixed bitrate as predetermined and tantamount to a monthly charge agreed upon by the client served and the VPS host.
The value of a dedicated VPS hosting package depends on the integrity and reliability of the web hosting company. For clients who want their websites maintained and kept online, a hosting provider that can be relied on is a crucial consideration.

Clients who need partial, predetermined and controlled assistance, they should go with unmetered VPS hosting. Clients who can handle most of the technical configurations and maintenance, an unmanaged hosting server is advised. Finally, for clients who prefer to have certified professionals monitoring and managing the server, a managed VPS hosting is the most appropriate server to choose.
