Prices in CAD. Servers are physical machines matched to current inventory, so specifications and prices differ by city; a tier that is not listed for a city is sold out there. The 1-year term is billed annually.
The whole machine, in Canada
Enterprise Intel Xeon servers with ECC memory and SSD storage in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver data centres, on Canadian networks.

Unmetered Bandwidth
A dedicated port at 300 Mbps or 2 Gbps with no traffic cap and no overage charges, ever.
Three Canadian Cities
Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver. Your data stays in Canada and your visitors get the lowest latency in the country.
Full Root Access
Install any operating system, run containers or virtual machines, open any port. It is your server.
IPMI Remote Console
Hardware-level remote access to power the server, watch it boot, mount an ISO and get in even when the OS will not start.
Hardware Looked After
Failed components are replaced by the data centre team around the clock, with Canadian support 24/7.
WHO IT IS FOR
When a VPS is not enough
Dedicated servers are for workloads that need the whole machine, predictable performance and lots of storage.
Databases and Data-Heavy Apps
Dedicated memory and SSDs for large PostgreSQL, MySQL or search clusters that do not like sharing I/O.
Virtualization and Containers
Install Proxmox or Docker and carve the server into your own VMs, staging environments and build runners.
High-Traffic Sites and SaaS
Unmetered bandwidth and a whole CPU for applications that have outgrown shared hosting and a VPS.
Agencies and Resellers
Host all your clients on hardware you control, with the managed cPanel option if you want us to run it.

Dedicated Server FAQs
What to expect from a dotCanada bare-metal server.
What is the difference between a dedicated server and a VPS?
A VPS is a virtual machine sharing a physical host with other customers. A dedicated server is the whole physical machine: every core, all the memory and the disks are yours, with no neighbours and no hypervisor in between. Pick a dedicated server for heavy databases, virtualization, large sites or anything that needs predictable performance and lots of storage.
Why do the specs and prices differ between cities?
These are real machines in real data centres, so each city sells what it has on the floor. Launch, Grow, Scale and Peak are the four sizes we offer everywhere, but a Montreal Peak is a different (bigger) machine than a Toronto Peak and is priced accordingly. When a city has no server that fits a size, that size is not listed for it until stock returns.
How long does delivery take?
Servers are pre-built and racked, so most are online within a few hours of payment, often faster. You receive the IP address, root password and IPMI details by email and in your client area.
Is the server managed?
The standard plans are unmanaged: you administer the operating system and software, and we look after the hardware, the network and the data centre, with 24/7 support for those. If you would rather have us handle updates, security hardening and monitoring, a managed option that includes a cPanel licence is available as an add-on at checkout.
What does the 1-year term include?
The 1-year term takes 10% off the monthly price and is billed once a year. Monthly billing is month to month at the regular price and can be cancelled at any time before the next renewal.
Which operating systems can I install?
Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux are available at no charge, plus Proxmox VE if you want to run your own virtual machines. Windows Server can be installed with a licence at extra cost. You can reinstall at any time from your client area.
Is bandwidth really unmetered?
Yes. Each server comes with an unmetered port at the speed shown, 300 Mbps on most servers and 2 Gbps on the largest, with no traffic cap and no overage charges.
What is IPMI?
IPMI is a management interface built into the server hardware. It gives you a remote console, power control and the ability to mount an ISO, independent of the operating system, so you can recover a server even when it will not boot.
Can I add more IP addresses or storage?
Additional IPv4 addresses can be added to any server for a small monthly fee. Because these are fixed machines, extra disks and memory are not available after delivery; if you outgrow a server, order the next size and we will help you move.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Dedicated servers are physical machines reserved for you, so they are not covered by our 7-day money-back guarantee. Monthly billing lets you try a server with a one-month commitment.
