Glowhost (fully managed and unmanaged hosting soutions)?

The reason for my asking is that I am going to buy dedicated server solution for my 10 web sites. The thing is that my latest web hosting provider went out of business and I am thinking of to transfer my sites to Glowhost.com. What should I get fully managed or unmanaged dedi? Have you dealt with this company?

What to get depends on your skills - if you are able to manage the server yourself - get unmanaged, but if not - correspondingly.

The one more place to look up for managed and unmanaged deals is Ahosting.biz. They have very fine offers there. Comparison won't harm you, but profit.

Agreed with jovi, especially about the provider suggestion - Ahosting.biz is really great for getting dedicated servers.

No i don't have experience wit it. But if its manged will be better but cost more. Unmanaged will be a new server. You has to do all DNS configuration and hosting, FTP, security all > But its not So hard once you done with it is easy to maintain

If you have enough money but not enough skills to manage - get managed solution. I believe glowhost's offers are pretty reasonable as I know the company has pretty high rates among the people. At least reviews I have read are positive.

Wanna add that glowhost.com is quite a reputable company that their servers don't have downtime.
Managed or unmanaged dedis - that's up to you to decide which one to use as it depends on your experience, time and money.

I see that glowhost.com offers many different dedicated servers, how do you know which one you need to use from them?

I think specifically what is being referred to here is the SLA. Most datacenters have a 100% SLA. However, if you read their TOS, you will see that the 100% up has nothing to do with hardware, that is a completely different story.
