Comparisons and alternatives··· 1,056 views· 5 min read

HostMoz ("HOSTMOZ,Ltd" on its website) presents itself as an ICT consulting and development company in Maputo that also offers hosting and domains.

So the comparison is uneven: MozOut publishes hosting plans and prices, while the HostMoz public website does not list plans or prices. Let us go through the points one by one.

Hosting and panel

1 MozOut - cPanel on Linux hosting and Plesk on Windows hosting, with CloudLinux, free SSL and Imunify360. Clear per-account limits - that is what stops a neighbour’s site ruining your day.
2 HostMoz - Panel and technology not stated; the home page mentions "the most modern Cloud Computing systems".

Domains

1 MozOut - .mz registered with CIUEM by us, with free transfers, a DNS manager in the panel and nameserver changes you make yourself, at any hour.
2 HostMoz - Says it sells and manages national and international domains; extensions and prices not stated.

How you pay

1 MozOut - Meticais, with a local invoice your accountant accepts.
2 HostMoz - Currency and prices not stated on the public website.

Backups

1 MozOut - Every night before dawn, kept for a year, restored through JetBackup from the panel.
2 HostMoz - Not stated on the public website; check with the provider.

Customer support

1 MozOut - WhatsApp, panel ticket and e-mail 24 hours a day, plus phone calls from 08:00 to 16:00 - all in Portuguese, with a written record of everything asked and done kept in the panel.
2 HostMoz - Phone, e-mail (info@hostmoz.net) and contact form; office at Av. Eduardo Mondlane 755, Maputo. Hours not stated.

For companies: VPS and reseller

1 MozOut - VPS, Cloud, dedicated and reseller. Servers are unmanaged by default - delivered with the OS and full access.
2 HostMoz - Not stated on the public website. The home page highlights custom system development, sale of IT equipment and technical assistance.

Main differences

 MozOut HostMoz
Panel cPanel (Linux) and Plesk (Windows), with CloudLinux and Imunify360 Not stated

Currency Meticais, with a local invoice Not stated
Backups Nightly, kept 1 year, self-service restore Not stated

Where HostMoz is strong

ICT consulting, custom system development, hosting, sale of IT equipment and technical assistance in one company. For anyone who needs software built as well as a site hosted, that is a real difference.

Why we recommend MozOut

If you want everything in one place and in local currency: national domain, hosting, e-mail and invoice on one account. We are among the few who state in writing how long backups are kept - one year - and let you restore them yourself from the panel, with no ticket and no waiting. Add CloudLinux, which stops a neighbour’s site ruining your performance, Imunify360 against malicious code, free SSL that renews itself, free migration of your current site, free .mz transfers, over 100 domain extensions and one-click WordPress.

Entry price: the Pro Hosting plan starts at MT 600/month (7,200 a year), with SSL, backups and cPanel included. Price current in August 2026 - check the store for today’s figure.

In short. For a business in Mozambique - with a national domain, an invoice in local currency and someone who answers any hour by WhatsApp, ticket or e-mail - MozOut is the choice we recommend. And if you ever change your mind, you take everything with you, with no fee.

The test worth more than this article. Before deciding, send a technical question to both support teams and compare how long they take and how good the answer is. That applies to them and to us - it is how you judge a provider.

Data on HostMoz consulted on hostmoz.net on 15 October 2026; on that date only the home page was available. We did not test their services, and the information may have changed since. If you spot anything out of date, tell us and we will correct it.
