Hosting price question

I would like to find out if I can save money on hosting. I now lease a dedicated server (Dell Poweredge SC 1425 Plus) and pay 375 euro for 3 months. This price includes 1 mbps. For overusage I pay 35 euro per 1 mbps. Lately I have about 3 mbps overusage per month.

375 euro according to google currency converter is $512
35 euro is approximately $48

Besides the hosting I hire a guy who takes care of the server maintenance. He does backups, he keeps the server software up-to-date (although I wonder if directadmin doesn't do that itself..) but more importantly for me I can call the guy whenever I have a server problem or question or even if I have some technical script question etc. For this I pay 130 euro every month ($ 178). I wonder; nowadays, aren't upgrades and backups included in most hosting deals?

Cheers

Hello,

Caro.Net well lots of good recommendations but let me say that we can deliver everything you have already, at an improved price point, and work with any growth expectations you have for the future.

Caro's network has been up and in operation since 1995, we have been the network home to AEBN since they started in the business. A glance at our site will show you that the pricing is better but direct communications can let us work out the details on all of your specifics.

Hit me up directly and lets talk about everything Caro can deliver for you.
