I'm thinking of buying into the hosting package offered here using vcloud. We are a medium size forum of about 14,000 members, operating now on Vbulletin 5.0.5 and have been operating since 2009. We only have about 200 members participating per day. I'm almost 70 with not much Vbulletin experience, and only one of our admins has a little experience with the software. She upgrades the patches but for anything more complicated, we pay for a professional to do it. Our (simple living) forum is free to use, registration is required and we operate via donations from our members and one advertiser. It is our choice to keep advertising to an absolute minimum. Currently we pay for hosting on Hostgator at around $60 US a month. We also pay for some upgrades.
My questions are:
Am I right in assuming we stop Hostgator if we move to vcloud?
What is involved in moving and will we lose any data?
How long does the transfer take?
Would the Silver package be suitable for us?
Thanks for your help with this.
