I just bought 1 year plan from server4you.com only for less than 1 week.
What happen is that the router is down for 7 hours. And you can only chat with their sales. You can only report the problem through the ticket. If you call them for euquires for the status, after a few times, they will filter your phone number. You can only use private number to call them.
Just share with your guys who is looking for dedicated server.
I am a very diplomatic person and I believe in doing fair business. This is why I've decided to write this post in your forums as well as my own and a few others. I want to share with the world our horrible experience with Server4you.de in hopes of saving the rest of you from their lies.
I am not one to openly bash people online but I feel the need to spare all of you from falling victim to this company!
In order to offer the most stable listening experience to all of you, we needed to add another European server. Doing a little research in Google, we fell on Server4you.de (a German company).
Here is an example of what they promote (in German):
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3400+, DualCore 64 Bit, 1.024 MB DDR2-RAM 1x 160 GB SATA-HDD Betriebssystem: OpenSuSE, Fedora, Ubuntu und Debian Plesk 8.2 - 10 Domains Unbegrenzter Datentransfer (which means unlimited datatransfer) Kostenloser Support per E-Mail und 0800-Hotline
Before hand, we verified with them that the unlimited datatransfer package was accessible for streaming. Most companies don't allow this so it is always the first question to ask. They confirmed that there was no problem at all!
Well, after 2 months of service with them, they are telling us that we must limit our datatransfer to 75GB/day or 2TB/month. You might think that this is already a lot but this is standard for most dedicated servers and this suddenly makes them pretty expensive (even for North-American standards). Note that European bandwidth is known to be significantly cheaper than North-American bandwidth.
This was one of the few times I've had to sign a contract for hosting. So for the next year, I'm stuck paying for cheap/mediocre quality bandwidth that's suddenly not even unmetered anymore! I would walk away from them if I could (contract or no contract, I don't care) but since we're outside Germany, they made us pay for 12 month in advance. So if I want to get anything out of that money, I have no choice to use their low grade bandwidth.
Basically, consider yourself warned! Don't do business with Server4you!
They actually disconnected our servers without warning or even messaging us because we had apparently reached this new bandwidth quota which had never been mentioned in the past!
I was looking at ovh.co.uk and there prices seem to good to be true and searching webhosting talk it says no results found. so does anyone have good or bad reviews about them?
i found a nice ovh server which is a quad core with 8 gb of ram on a 1 GBps port. I saw a few reviews and i heard people say that they will lower your speed or something. What i need to host is a game server which uses a lot of upload. At least 10 mbps at MOST excluding users that have to download a 5 mb file. Perhaps if i tested my upload on speedtest.net if i had a ovh server that is on a 1 gbps port. What would the upload be?
i have registered on Mochahost.com to Get a VPS, the prices are very good and the Datacenter is " Theplanet.com ". i need your reviews about Mochahost.com if any body is or was a customer on it.
note : they told me that i'll get the VPS after 24 hours is it normal or what?
Anyone here used Midphase? Over at WHT you can find as many negatives as positives for almost anyone you chose. Anyone at Sitepoint used them? I'm very cautious about switching and have checked into several web hosts. I would stick with the one I have now, but server load spikes seem to come at the worst times and stay around for hours.
where can I search for reviews. I searched for reviews in the search area of the site but did not get any on Websitepalace.com. If you know or have anything to say about Websitepalace,
does anyone here host with Peer1 or ServerBeach (same company)? I see their advertisements here at WHT non-stop, but I have yet to see any reviews, positive nor negative.
I'm with ASmallOrange ( ASO - www.asmallorange.com ) already for more than one year. I have to say I have been very happy with the quality and service I have received.
SERVER Server is very reliable. Yes, I encountered some issue months ago, because some DNS attack and password issue on ASO's staff, but they handle the situation very good and they was honest about it.
SUPPORT Their support is fantastic. Actually, I seldom contact support since everything is okay, but when I did, their reply is fast and prompt.
COMMUNITY FORUM They have good and active community forum.
PRICE Their price is reasonable. Yes, ASO do not offer "unlimited" but their prices compared to quality is okay.
MY SITE: Since it is required, my site with ASO : www.midave.com
I know they have started in just 2009, still there could be users who would like to share their review,
was lookin their plans for one of my friend, their plans look good
may be even impressive but after the mess around with the newly dooming/scam hosts such as hostchum, sarora, resellerways, it makes me think more than twice before selecting an host
See, I don't wish to raise up a discussion on the hosts again, its just my way of lookin at those recent dumb hosts which let lots of users in pain, including one of my dear friend.
I know its good to think twice, but it has made me lose faith really badly in the hosting industry thanks to the kiddies and scam hosts, to gain confidence back in the hosts might be a real tough buy
I know serving, wiredtree are still around but I am referring to the low-budget hosts..
I have seen the odd one or two reviews on MoxieHosting dating back a couple of years ago. Are there any latest reviews that people might have on MoxieHosting?
i place my first order with resellerways.com around 2-3 month ago but on that time their servers have many problem and goes down and etc but actually i should say Mike management is really nice and after 2 month i place new order with resellerways and when i check their servers i see they are really changes all things and have really excellent servers with fast speed.
Since moved to Seattle area 2 years ago, I searched for a Supermicro-server-built vendor closed to Seattle. I found some, but their pricing seem expensive. Some others are very slow in response, even from other WHT users, they seem good. Recently, contacted Scott Lee at Kerbo System, and I believe I have found a good one.
As usual, I sent a lot of pre-sales questions. Scott is very nice, to answer all questions with details. He shows a good experience in server hardware building. Then, I decided to order a new dual Nehalem system with them. Transaction went smoothly, and I have server on time. He even took some photos of servers for me, before shipping out, so I can show to customers. He also noted down for me all series numbers of all parts in server, so I can keep track, in case something wrong.
At first, I am not very impressed with their home page, but please don't let you down. Drop Scott an email with your requirements, or what you are going to do with server, he will reply with his advice, what he's thinking the best in your case. A good service, especially for business likes ours, not in the US.
So, a short reviews about Scott Lee and Kerbo System. I would highly recommend them to anyone needs Supermicro servers in the West coast.
Scott, thanks for a good service. We are looking for a long term business relation.
I've searched through this forum and only eleven threads about "BlueTurbo" show up. Does anyone have experience with this company, specifically regarding their support, network performance/uptime, and hardware?
I have been a SolarVPS customer for about half a month and I am very happy with their service. I have not had one single downtime and their support was top notch the few times I needed them.
