ChemiCloud Cloud 1 Add-On Guide 2026: Backup and cPanel Costs
The short answer
**Quick answer:** Cloud 1's headline **$32.95/month** is only the starting point. One cPanel Solo account is included, while **80GB Remote Backup is $9.95/month** and the **Admin license for up to five cPanel accounts lists $19.95/month**. Final checkout matters because the current page also flags the selected timeframe as unavailable.
At a glance
- Best for
- Cloud 1 buyers planning backup retention or more than one isolated cPanel account.
- Price model
- Displayed $32.95 base; 80GB backup $9.95/mo; Admin up to 5 cPanel accounts $19.95/mo
- Check first
- $32.95 is a public display, final cart controls; backup and higher cPanel tiers are paid add-ons and VPS refund is 7 days.
The displayed $32.95 price needs checkout confirmation
The current Cloud 1 page shows **2 CPU cores, 4GB RAM, 80GB NVMe, 4TB transfer, full management and cPanel/WHM** at **$32.95 versus $59.95**. The same page also says the package is not available in the selected timeframe.
The monthly order link exists, but the domain-first cart does not repeat the plan price before the domain step.
That means the article can use $32.95 as the current public display, but a buyer should not treat it as a captured invoice. Save the final cart, billing cycle and renewal details before migration.
Remote Backup adds a clear $9.95 monthly line
ChemiCloud's optional **80GB Cloud Remote Backup** currently costs **$9.95/month** and provides daily off-site JetBackup recovery points with up to 30 days of restore history.
If the checkout honors the $32.95 displayed base, simple planning becomes **$42.90/month** before tax for Cloud 1 plus the 80GB backup.
If the effective base instead lands near the $59.95 regular reference, the same backup produces **$69.90/month** planning. The gap shows why the final base price matters more than the backup line itself.
cPanel Solo is included, but account growth changes the bill
Cloud 1 includes **cPanel Solo for one account**. ChemiCloud currently lists **Admin for up to five accounts at $19.95/month**, with larger licenses priced separately.
The important unit is cPanel accounts, not websites. A single cPanel account can hold multiple sites, while an agency that wants separate account isolation for several clients may need Admin.
Using the displayed $32.95 base, adding both 80GB backup and the listed Admin add-on gives **$62.85/month** before tax if the cart charges those published rates. Treat that as planning, not a guaranteed invoice.
Refund rules make add-on timing important
ChemiCloud's current terms give VPS hosting a **7-day money-back period**, exclude add-ons, and say monthly-billing-cycle renewals are non-refundable.
That is much narrower than the generic 45-day footer visible in parts of the cart flow. For a VPS purchase, the VPS-specific terms should control unless checkout explicitly grants something better.
Because backup and panel upgrades are add-ons, do not assume they share the same refund protection as the base VPS. Add paid extras only after confirming the server/billing configuration is the one you intend to keep.
Migration scope can justify a higher cPanel tier
ChemiCloud's migration documentation says a free external migration requested within 60 days can cover up to **200 cPanel accounts** or up to **10 non-cPanel websites**, with separate limits around non-cPanel email migration.
That creates a practical planning issue: migration capacity can be much larger than the one-account Solo license included with Cloud 1.
If you are moving several isolated cPanel accounts, decide the post-migration account structure before the transfer. Otherwise you can successfully migrate data and then discover that the included panel license does not match how you want to separate clients.
Three realistic checkout scenarios
A single-site owner using one cPanel account and no paid backup can stay closest to the base VPS price.
A buyer who wants daily off-site restore history should add **$9.95/month** for the current 80GB backup tier.
A small agency needing up to five cPanel accounts may also need the **$19.95/month Admin** license. Combined with the displayed $32.95 base and 80GB backup, that is **$62.85/month** planning before tax if the cart matches all listed rates.
Checkout checklist
Confirm Cloud 1's **2 CPU, 4GB RAM, 80GB NVMe and 4TB transfer**, the actual billing cycle and the real checkout price.
Count how many cPanel accounts you need, decide whether Solo is enough, price the 80GB backup if required, and read the VPS-specific **7-day refund** and add-on exclusions before paying.
If migrating, confirm whether your source is cPanel or non-cPanel and whether your account/site count fits the free migration scope.
**Bottom line:** Cloud 1 can remain good value, but the real purchase decision is not just $32.95. The number of cPanel accounts, paid backup requirement and VPS-specific refund rules determine the practical monthly cost and migration plan.
