Hello Friends,

UNIX-based hosting is generally seen as being more stable, it also performs faster and can be more secure since most malicious software is written to cause damage to Windows. However, you will need Windows hosting if you are going to develop in .NET or Visual Basic.

Unix is an open source OS platform used for various purposes. It provides more security compared to Windows and they also come at cheaper prices. Windows offer GUI and are easy to operate compared to Unix systems.
