    Looking for reliable managed VPS hosting

    I'm looking for managed VPS hosting (mainly for wordpress sites). Here are some features I want:
    -> CPanel
    -> 5-10GB of space would probably be enough
    -> ~512MB of RAM
    It must be reliable and great customer support.
    Budget max. 50$/month

    Any ideas which hosting company to choose? Thanks for any help.

    Your requirements and budget definitely sound reasonable. Do you have a location preference?

    For $50, you should be able to get around 20-30 GB space.

    Take Xen as much as possible if not, Virtuozzo would be fine and great, Well, most of the Managed Companies offers provides Virtuozzo. DO NOT ACCEPT the Offer if its on OpenVZ. (Why? Because you're paying $50/month and that should cover the costs of Virtuozzo licenses)

    Check out Futurehosting.com, Knownhost.com, Servint.com & Liquidweb.com. They are the best in the business.

    #If you will opt for Wiredtree, well, they had a few downtimes these past few months but support is great. (VPS now Inactive - Stayed there for 3 months and got the VPS1024 plan)

    #If Futurehosting, support is sometimes slow to reply but they really know what they are doing. and they have 5 datacenters to choose from. What I don't like is they have raised $3 on my monthly bill. (VPS Still Active - 5 Months, got the $26.97 VPS Gold Special)

    #if ServInt, I had a difficulty talking with their support because they tend to pass it to Level 1, Level 2 then Level 3 technicians. that's why they are very slow to fix the issues. but I do like the fact that during my stay I had a very stable vps.(VPS is now inactive, stayed there for 2 Months, got the essentialvps package)

    #If knownhost, VPS is Fast, Support team is awesome, their CA vps has a very good ping times here in Asia, and they have upgraded their packages recently without adjusting prices. (VPS now inactive stayed there for 3 months, got the VS2 Plan w/ Cpanel)

    #if Liquidweb, I Don't like their sales team. Well, they were charging me $150 to transfer 1 site from Kloxo panel to Cpanel (well, I didn't payed for it. I did the transferring myself). Well, Support team is top notch. VPS is fast, stable and responsive but they are a bit expensive. (VPS is now inactive - Stayed there for 2 months and got their Linux Basic Plan)

    You should look for at least 10GB of disk space for a cPanel VPS.

    You should have no problem finding a provider that fits your price range. Remember to ask them if they do migration assistance and if so, at what price (if any).

    Most companies will provide migration at free of cost, if the control panel matches. Else, they will be charging.
