I have been with them for about a week now and have opened about 40 support tickets.
I think they are great with the managed hosting , they have a 1 hour response gurantee and the live support is very friendly.
I also upgraded plans which went smoothly.
I found the best VPS Host! I came accross VPSByte.com and I just loved them. They helped me from selecting a plan, setting up my account, and other issues I had. Their support is friendly and fast. Also, they have a lot of different plans to choose from and I found just want I needed. I am kinda new at VPS and so they helped me out a lot on getting started. They offer a lot of services and features. I love the many different control panels they offer. They treat me like a friend and guide me through the solutions to my problems. I would really recommend this host to everyone. The site i have with them is emeraldfeathers.com.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am happy with my current host (SolarVPS) and also have some kind of liking for Futurehosting.
I have just seen some really good offers for VPS from VPSByte and was considering hosting a friends sites with them.
But because I have no experience with them, I'd like to know whether there are any VPSByte customers here and what your experiences are with them, good and bad.
What I want to know is in these criteria:
- Speed (I've tested and it seems OK because my Friend is in US),
- Performance,
- Stability,
- Support (How newbie-friendly are they because my friend is more of a newbie than myself)
I've ordered dedicated sever the AMD4200 at vpsbyte last Thursday, exactly a week ago, but status on my client page is still pending, during a whole week i sent 4 emails with 1 response - a promise to set up server in Monday, and that's 3 days ago. Gee i am so pissed off i had to set my project to idle and loose money. Their website is totally outdated to 2008 and buggy as hell, that kayako support thing doesn't work at all, general support is offline 24h, MSN is offline, 1h response means maybe 1 week response if lucky.I don't really grow my money in trees and i really need superfast connection to my dedicated server for reasonable price...
I feel robbed, should i report them to authorities for scam? or they are just out of business?
My VPSByte Review.
I started to write a long review detailing the hellish experience I had with VPS Byte. But I think instead, I will just summarize with this.
VPS BYTE IS AN UNLICENCED, ILLEGALLY OPERATING OPERATION.
The State of Oregon, City of Portland and Multnomah County all require business licenses to run your business inside the state, city and county.
On their home page (vpsbyte.com) at the bottom, they say:
Copyright 2006-2007 VPSByte LLC. All rights reserved
If you call the Oregon Secretary of States office, you will see that, no such company (LLC) exists or is licensed to do business in Oregon. (Oregon Secretary of State: 503 986 2200)
On their "About us" page, they say:
VPSByte, maintained under the ASC Group of Oregon
Again, no such company legally exists in the state of Oregon.
If you pay them with Paypal, the payment really goes to: selectbyte.net. Once again, there is no company licensed to do business in the state of Oregon named Select Byte. Apparently Camron does business under many other names, none that I can find are legally registered.
That business address is in the city of Portland, Oregon. If you call the city of Portland:
(503) 823-4000
You will see that there is no business registered under any of Camrons names are licensed to do business in the city of Portland or Multnomah County.
Rather than continue on with my experiences, I suggest that you simply decide if you want to do business with an unlicensed "company".
Currently I'm hosted with VPSByte.com. They specialize in high quality VPS and Dedicated servers.
I bought a cPanel VPS from them a while ago and so far have had no problems at all with them. The prices are fantastic and the support (Should you need it...not often) is absolutely great. I've had an answer within an hour every time and they're always happy to assist you any day of the week.
Always making their services better and better VPSByte has been proven to be one of the very best, if not, THE best VPS provider I've ever seen. I'll definately be staying with them for as long as humanly possible!
I'd rate them *****/***** (5/5) and would recommend them any day.
I am thinking of getting their dedicated server as there prices are good

Burstable RAM - 2GB - 6GB - 4GB

I use a company called VPSByte for basic unmanged VPS service. They are asking me to scan a copy of my drivers license as well as my credit card and post it on their private support page for fraud protection reasons.
I think this is rather absurd. Is this normal? I'm not doing it, I think it's stupid, never mind that I don't have a scanner.
