Sarora Review ....

UPDATE

I have been with these guys just about a month now, and service has been great. There was a hardware failure a little while ago, which got fixed pretty quick. Even though they were probably scrambling, they still answered my ticket quickly and updated me as things progressed. I'm stayin where I am ;)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

BACKGROUND

I recently had been in a shared hosting account for maybe 6 months. Mainly I was just hosting my personal email, and had web space "out there" for whatever reasons. I had thought of ramping up some of my domain names recently and decided that my shared hosting environment would not cut it.

HARDWARE / VPS

All the hardware seems to be in top shape. The processors are as they said they were going to be, I have all the RAM allocated to me that I purchased, and the disk I/O has been great. I have zero complaints on the environment at this time. I went with the V3 VPS, which is plenty of power for my needs.

SUPPRT / SERVICE

Every ticket I have opened has been at least acknowleded, if not completed, within no more than 10 minutes. I have had maybe 5 tickets open, some with major questions like "Can you add these kernel modules", and some as simple as billing questions. All tickets have been completed in a very acceptable timeframe. I personally have a lot of cPanel experience, so I could take care of myself, but I have no doubt that Sarora would've held my hand the entire way, if not set it up for me, if I needed.

RECOMMENDATION

I was looking to get out of a shared hosting environment due to previous host performance and my wanting to bring more domains up. I looked at Dedicateds, which were out of my budget. I spent a couple of weeks looking at VPS offers, and none had what I wanted ( disk space, RAM, cPanel, etc ) for a price that I thought was in my budget. Then comes along these guys. I read some crazy stuff about their past, but I also read a lot into their good intentions and the support they had in the community. This is what made my decision to give them a try. I was going to start with just a couple of ancillary domains, but eventually moved most of my stuff over, after only a week with Sarora. I can't believe I am getting the resources and the support I am, for the price I am paying. I am hoping to be a long time customer of Sarora, and I will tell people I know that are looking for hosting, to give Sarora a shot.

I am not a religious man, but I took a "leap of faith" and so far it has panned out exceptionally. I couldn't be happier with my hosting decision right now.
