Prices for servers in Canada from Unihost
Data Center Locations in Canada
Unihost operates dedicated server Canada infrastructure from Montreal – one facility in the city itself and five in Beauharnois. Montreal is one of Canada's primary internet exchange hubs, with direct peering to the main US internet corridors and transatlantic routes to Western Europe.
While the current catalogue focuses on Montreal and Beauharnois, Unihost also operates a Vancouver data center for projects requiring West Coast presence and lower latency to Pacific markets. A Vancouver dedicated server is the optimal choice for users in British Columbia, the US Pacific Northwest, and Asia-Pacific – cutting latency to Tokyo, Seoul, and Sydney compared to East Coast alternatives.
Key infrastructure highlights across all Canadian locations:
- Tier 3 / Tier 4 certified facilities
- ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II
- N+1 redundancy: multiple independent internet uplinks and power feeds
- Diesel generators with uninterruptible power supplies on every server
- Hybrid per-server cooling system – 30% more efficient than conventional air cooling
- IPMI/KVM-over-IP and 500 GB backup storage included at no extra cost
Why Choose a Dedicated Server in Canada
Network Latency & Connectivity
Canada's network infrastructure is directly integrated with the US backbone, making a Canada dedicated server in Montreal virtually indistinguishable from a US East Coast server in terms of latency – at a noticeably lower price. Typical routing times from Montreal:
- Northeast US (New York, Boston) – under 10ms
- Central US (Chicago) – under 20ms
- Southeast US (Miami) – under 30ms
- Western Europe (London, Amsterdam) – under 80ms
- West Coast US (Los Angeles) – under 65ms
For North America hosting that needs to serve both US and Canadian users equally well, Montreal is the most balanced single-location choice available. All configurations include 1 Gbps uplink with 30 TB traffic as standard, with unlimited traffic options on select series. Browse the full dedicated server catalogue for complete specs and availability.
Compliance & Data Protection
For regulated industries – healthcare (subject to provincial health privacy laws), financial services, government contractors, and legal firms – hosting in Canada eliminates the jurisdictional ambiguity that comes with US-based infrastructure. Our Canadian data centers hold ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II certifications, with physical access restricted to certified maintenance staff. For complex compliance configurations, explore our business solutions page.
Dedicated Server Pricing in Canada
All Unihost Canada plans include free DDoS protection, 500 GB backup storage, IPMI/KVM-over-IP, vRack virtual networking, and 24/7 support. The first dedicated server order receives a $10 welcome discount, and loyalty pricing applies for multi-month billing cycles.
H3: Cheap Dedicated Servers vs Enterprise Solutions
Cheap dedicated server canada options start from €25.90/month (Xeon D-1520, 32 GB DDR4 ECC, 2× 480 GB SSD, 500 Mbps unlimited) – making canadian dedicated server infrastructure accessible even for lean projects and startups that need a real North American presence without enterprise budgets.
Mid-range LWC and SYS series (dual Xeon E5, AMD EPYC 7371, Xeon E-2288G, 32–128 GB RAM) cover the majority of production SaaS, database, and application server needs at €45–€210/month. The OVE series scales up to AMD EPYC GENOA 9654 with 128 GB DDR5 ECC and 5 Gbps unlimited uplinks for maximum compute density. Canada also features Ampere Altra ARM-based servers (Q80-30, Altra Max) – energy-efficient configurations well suited for cloud-native and containerised workloads.

Up to 256 IP-addresses per server
Additional IPs will let you forget about the software incompatibilities, as well as protect your project’s control panel. In Canada, IPv6 are provided for free.

A convenient Client Area that allows you to reboot or reinstall the OS, see the server stats, backup the important data and do thousands of other operations without the terminal or a remote desktop.
Hardware firewall
Protect your servers from hackers and unnecessary stress! Hardware firewall filters all malicious traffic before it even reaches the server. You won’t have to waste the server resources on the hackers and attackers!
NAS-storage
External NAS storage comes with up to 13 TB of space that is perfect for storing a common database for several servers. Each storage is based on the RAID10 array with SATA interface and can work with up to 10 servers at the same time.
Green data center
Data centers use modern air conditioning tech that allows cooling each server separately with both water- and air-based cooling systems. In the end, data centers use 30% less energy on cooling.

FAQ
What is a Dedicated Server?
A dedicated server is one of the most powerful hosting options available. A dedicated server means it is exclusively for you, so you don’t have to share your dedicated resources with anyone else.
How can I access my server?
Linux server – via an encrypted SSH connection.
Server with Windows OS – via RDP.What control panels are available?
Full list is available in shopping cart.
What software can be installed on the server?
By default, we offer a dozen Linux distributions, Windows Server, several dedicated control panels and some other software. You can pick it either in the cart during the purchase or in the Unihost Client Area. You can also install any software you want, except for any that may harm the server itself or other Unihost servers.
Can I order additional IPs?
Yes, it is possible to order additional IPs. You can learn more about the pricing on additional IPs for the servers in the Client Area or during the purchase procedure.
For detailed information, please contact online support.Do you provide IPv6?
Yes, you can order both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
What is RAID?
RAID is a technology that allows you to combine the storage drives into a single array, which helps to prevent data loss if one of the drives gets broken. RAID comes in various kinds:
- RAID 0, used to combine two or more drives in a single array. More common in personal data storage, rarely used in business due to instabilities and proneness to failure.
- RAID 1, a.k.a. mirroring. The second drive becomes a carbon copy of the first one. If any of them fails, all the data can still be restored from the other one.
- RAID 10 (or RAID 0+1) is a combination of two RAID 0 arrays into a RAID 1 array. You basically get a combined array of two drives, as well as its backup copy. RAID 10 requires a minimum of four drives.
What is the difference between Software RAID and Hardware RAID?
Software RAID means that the repartitioning will happen at the OS level, while Hardware RAID repartitions the drives before the OS is even loaded. The latter is more reliable and fast since the server doesn’t have to waste resources to manage the RAID structure. Besides, Hardware RAID is the only option that can survive the OS reinstallation.
What should I do if the server does not respond?
You can reboot it from the Client Area. While there, you can also check the server’s stats and reinstall the OS. If for whatever reason you can’t do this, contact the Unihost support.
Can I get a physical access to the server?
No. Unihost dedicated servers are located in secure facilities and we cannot grant free access to the servers due to the possible risks. Only people who have direct access to the servers are our certified employees tasked with maintenance, and even their access level depends on the tasks at hand.
If the hardware of my server goes down, who will be held responsible?
All our hardware is routinely tested. If any component fails, we will replace it with an identical one, covering all bills.
