Your application stack determines whether Linux or Windows hosting is the better fit—not personal preference alone.

Choose Linux for

WordPress, PHP, Laravel, Node.js on Linux, MySQL/MariaDB, and the majority of open-source applications. Most Capnis shared and VPS plans run Linux distributions.

Choose Windows for

ASP.NET, MSSQL, and applications requiring IIS or Remote Desktop access. Capnis offers Plesk-based Windows shared hosting and Windows Server VPS options.

Still unsure?

Check your application documentation or contact Capnis sales with your stack—we will recommend the right environment.
