Our verdict

Melita Business is a Malta-based provider for small businesses and enterprise buyers who want hosting, backup and co-location from a single supplier. Trading since 1992, it competes on in-country data centres and phone support rather than on headline price at the start of a term.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Data centres in Madliena and Mriehel, Malta keep the network close to local buyers (Madliena, Malta and Mriehel, Malta).
  • Phone and chat support sit alongside a help centre, covering the channels small teams reach for most (chat, phone and help centre).
  • A single supplier covers Cloud VPS, dedicated servers, co-location, cloud backup and mailbox backup, so capacity can grow in place (Cloud VPS, dedicated servers and co location).

Cons

  • The Cloud VPS entry price of €58 is above the typical entry price in this category (€2.99).
  • Support runs on chat, phone and help centre only, with no listed email or community channel for questions that arrive out of hours.
  • Renewal at €92 is higher than the €58 entry price, so a cheap first term does not predict later cost.

Who it suits

  • Small businesses in Malta that want hosting and backup from a single supplier (small business and enterprise).
  • Organisations with in-country data residency requirements (Madliena, Malta and Mriehel, Malta).
  • Teams that want phone and chat support alongside managed infrastructure (chat, phone and help centre).

Who should look elsewhere

  • Readers on a tight budget: Render lists an entry price of $0.
  • Buyers who only need ordinary shared hosting: Afrihost starts at ZAR 84.
  • Accounts already settled with a European provider such as Hosting.cl, listed at CLP 159,900.

Plans and pricing

The Cloud VPS plan is listed at €58 to start, and the same plan renews at €92. That gap is the figure to budget on, since a longer commitment locks in the renewal number rather than the entry one. Other lines on the range are quoted separately, so the entry figure represents the Cloud VPS plan alone.

Where it sits among rivals

On intro price, Melita Business ranks 280 of 282 brands, placing it well down the list on entry cost. On renewal price the picture is a little better at 177 of 179, though still far from the front. Readers shopping purely on price will find cheaper options elsewhere in the field.

How Melita Business compares

Frequently asked questions

What does Melita Business cost to start?+

The Cloud VPS plan is the entry point, listed at €58 to start. That figure covers the introductory term, while the same plan renews at €92, so the pair shows the real cost of staying rather than the cost of signing up.

What does the Cloud VPS plan cost at renewal?+

Renewal sits at €92 for the Cloud VPS plan, above the €58 entry price. Anyone signing up on a discounted first term should assume the higher figure continues each cycle, which makes the renewal number the one to check before choosing a contract length.

Which kinds of hosting does Melita Business sell?+

The range covers Cloud VPS, dedicated servers and co location. That spread suits buyers who may later want dedicated hardware or co-location without changing supplier, and the backup lines let the same provider cover server data and mailbox data together.

Where are the data centres located?+

The data centres are in Madliena, Malta and Mriehel, Malta, and the head office is in Malta (MT). Keeping facilities in the home market suits buyers with data residency requirements or a preference for support close to home.

How do I reach support?+

Support runs through chat, phone and help centre. Phone and chat cover quick questions, and the help centre handles the written ones, so a small team has several routes to the same desk rather than a single inbox.

Who is Melita Business built for?+

The stated audience is small business and enterprise. That reads as a provider for companies wanting infrastructure and backup from a single supplier, rather than a consumer host for a single personal site.

Are backups part of the hosting?+

Backups appear among the standard features (backups), and the range also carries separate cloud backup and mailbox backup lines (Cloud VPS, dedicated servers and co location). A buyer can therefore protect server data and mail data through a single account rather than adding a second supplier.
