Is running a Zimbra server through Amazon EC2 any better from a privacy/security standpoint than using Google Apps?

We are running a 40k+ visitor per month WordPress blog on A2 Hosting's "unlimited" shared hosting. We are apparently using up too much processor time, and they want us gone.

I guess we need a managed VPS or dedicated server. All I want is my regular cPanel interface. I don't want to have to learn to administer a server. I am also terrified of moving everything over with minimal downtime, so a little hand-holding may be in order.

Where should I go?

cPanel has account migrations that are almost entirely automated so all you need to do is find a VPS provider you trust.

We already tried a VPS with HostGator, and before I get my cPanel interface, I've got to learn how to set up DNS servers, user accounts, and all kinds of stuff I have no idea how to do. We gave up.

I need fully-managed hosting.

I'll check out WiredTree, dvgrhl. Thanks!

Our signup and transfer to WiredTree VPS from A2 shared hosting was a piece of cake. WiredTree has got great customer service; they usually respond to e-mails within minutes, and you can also just pick up the phone and call. Huge difference! Thanks for the recommendation, goons.
