Opinions XenEurope
Jul 24, 2008
I search VPS with DirectAdmin and Debian Etch 4.0 based on Xen technology.
It's serious xenEurope?
Why use hardware enterprise class for the vps machines?
Where VPS per nodes?
I have realized ping in this web xenEurope, the results:
ping 194.110.67.9

I was looking for a good VPS to host our technical writing community site [twin-india.org]. I searched through WHT and decided on Xeneurope.
Adam was easily accessible and gave me a custom plan as per my request.
Setup: The setup took around 1/2 hr. Pretty fast.
Network: The network has been really solid so far. I have not noticed any outages.
Speed: I am in India and the site is in NL. The site loads fast and me nor my users have had any problem at all.
Support: I have not used much of support as I am a self made admin. The few times I have needed support. Adam has been there to help.
It is going to be a month since I have had the VPS. Altogether, very good experience. Our Lord Jesus be praised.
I hope to post a 3 month, 6 month and a one year review, God willing.
A big thumbs up to Xeneurope from me.

Server Performance - 8/10
Support - 7/10
Pricing - 7/10
This is a one week review of XenEurope's services.
Having been with XenEurope for one week, I feel that my experience with them has been decent.
Setup was a breeze, the welcome email came to me within the 24 hrs time allocation.
The VPS wasn't setup to what I wanted (LxAdmin), so I went in to HyperVM to rebuild it.
Regarding support, I always get a prompt answer, but maybe it's just me.
Then again, I've been pretty self-sufficient, and only used support twice.
I had problems with installing VNC, but support guided me through.
The server performance is amazing though. The benchmarks I run were great.
Compared to Leeware ($15 previously), I got about 4x the score (20 vs 80).
The score may appear to be low, but Xen VPSes seem to score low on the benchmark for some reason.
However, it feels faster, than the Leeware/SmokyHosts/VPS4Less VPS I had not long ago.
Mind you, I'm on their lowest plan, so I'm pretty impressed.
Their pricing isn't the cheapest in town that's for sure.
a2b2 and cheapVPS definitely have cheaper pricing per RAM and disk allocations.
However, my VPN didn't work on their OpenVZ VPSes and Xen is surely much better.
For the quality, I'd say that the pricing is fair.
Latency is a problem I personally have.
Compared to the US, Europe has significantly higher latency to sunny Singapore.
Doing a traceroute, I find that my ISP routes through the Los Angeles first.
However, compared to the other two Europe VPSes, SSH was the fastest on this one.
This concludes my review, and hope I'll continue to have such a pleasant experience.

I have been a customer of xenEurope's for just over 1 month now. xenEurope is a UK based VPS company, who provide VPS's based in the Netherlands.
[url]
Initial Impressions
I was first drawn to xenEurope after a few reviews I had read in here and some posts made in the offers section. I went to their website and was chatting with Adam on the Live Support right away. The Live Support has always been professional and available, and within 10 minutes we had arranged a very well priced custom package.
Signing Up
After having arranged the custom package, I had received my signup link instantly. I signed up, payed the invoiced and had my VPS and root password within no more than 15 minutes. The process of arranging a custom package, signing up, paying the invoice and receiving the VPS details took no more than 30 minutes.
VPS Performance
What can I say, except fantastic! In the past, I have had VPS's with a number of other US and UK based VPS providers, and none have been as good as xenEurope with regards to performance. To give you an idea, I had the exact same package with CheapVPS, and the applications I was running were averaging 1-2 server load. I run the exact same applications with xenEurope and rarely exceed 0.5.
Network Performance
Even though I am based in the UK, and my VPS is in the Netherlands, I get absolutely blazing speeds, far far better than I have ever gotten with any other VPS provider I have ever used before. I have never noticed any dips in speed either.
Uptime
The only thing I have ever noticed was a brief 10 minutes when there was a network problem at the Datacenter, and thats it. The VPS itself didn't require restarting, and was barely noticeable.
Support
Its not something that is very commonly heard, but I have never had to submit a single support ticket. Live Support has always been available when I've had a question regarding the VPS, and the Live Support has always been professional, courteous and well mannered and available whenever I've spoke to them.
VPS Control
xenEurope provide HyperVM for complete management of your VPS (restarting, reloading etc).
I highly recommend these guys, I have received nothing but a professional service since day 1. If your looking for a custom package, have a word with Adam on Live Support.
Overall 10/10

Not interested in reseller plans or any of that - strictly as a site for domain purchase and personal site hosting. I have them and am becoming very unsatisfied and looking for alternatives.

Based on my experience with their twin brand, Hostmonster, I would say that they should be just fine for a hobby site/playing around. I don't know about their support, as I didn't use it.

solarVPS opinions?
I did a search, and found mostly good things about solarVPS here. I want a little more re-assurance and hope that others that had good or bad experience with them can chip in on their VPS service.

I'm using Awardspace right now, but cannot say that I'm completely happy with them, mostly because of the downtime issues. It is up pretty much 99% of the time as they claim, but there are some issues with mysql database latency which from time to time make my site inaccessible, even thought the server is actually up.
Anybody else using this service ?
I'm talking about Awarspace paid, not free service

I am wondering what your opinions are regarding Ubersmith DE. Opinions from the ISP and the customer are welcome
We were first looking to write our own complete datacenter solution with integrated billing, ticketing system and all.
After seeing what kind of companies already are using Ubersmith DE, it has to be a good alternative!

Does anyone here use rsync palace? Their prices look good, but there is not a lot of company information, which I may need before recommending this service.

I'm a non-techie trying to choose a dedicated hoster. From searching through reviews and prices, I've come down to Lunar Pages or Liquid Web. Would you please give me your opinions of these two, and if there are others that you feel strongly about instead, mention those as well? I would really appreciate it -- I'm very anxious about choosing a reliable company with good service, b/c I'll pretty much be at their mercy! (Life is hard for the non-technical
My programmer gave me these requirements: managed hosting, windows server 2003 or 2008, web edition, 2 GB ram, ms sql server 2005 or above, quad core processor from 1.8 - 2.4 ghz, firewall, automatic backup -- 10 GB, remote desktop connection.

Considering a dedicated box at Gigenet, as their configurations and prices look good. However, I don't know any customers there.
We're looking for a basic unmanaged box with decent latency to both coasts and non-idiotic people to respond to tickets.

I'm tired of waiting for my Slicehost (other providers seem capable of not needing a waiting list?) so I'm thinking of VPSFarm.
I've done a search on here but not found much bar a couple of mentions and some advertising from them.

new colocation provider, and so I've started a thread for each one that I'm seriously considering. I hope to draw on your collective experience to help me with this decision.
Anyone had any experience with Layer42 colocation in Santa Clara?
Thanks,

Some background on my requirements:
I'm looking for a single cabinet with 40amps and a pretty small bandwidth commit for now -- probably 1-2Mbps, but increasing to probably 20 early next year. I'd want 24x7 access, and really just need space, power, and network, not any managed services. I'm looking for a reliable provider with full redundancy throughout, good security, and a nice multihomed bandwidth mix on a single 100Mbps drop. I want to work with a stable company with a good reputation for constant uptime and good service.

I had the chance to work with the summit24 switches, and I personally liked them. It is straight-forward in my opinion for the Web Interface compared to others I have seen and the pricing seems to be reasonable.
I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with any of their switching devices.

What do you think about this cabinet style's ability to cool say 18-20 1U core 2 duo servers? [see attached jpeg.]
its got a fan in the ceiling of it. I have read that ceiling fans don't do much and its the front to back cooling that really makes a difference. Is this true?
If you don't like this type of cab, which type do you like?

Some information about my forum:
I run a VBulletin forum with - 575,614 post, 14,369 members and 2.9 million page views per month. On average there are 300 - 400 people on the site.
The server right now is a Linux CentOS VPS with 1.1 gigs of memory. The hosting provider keeps telling me that I need a dedicated server.
Question # 1 - In your opinion - do you think its time for a dedicated server?
The server I am looking at has these stats:
E8300
2 GB RAM
250GB HD
cPanel
Management
The price I was given is pretty good. So the offer is going to be hard to pass up.
Question # 2 - Has anyone here used Future Hosting for their dedicated server solution?
