seems to be the best deal in town.
@ $69 / month you get to have 320gb worth of HD space!

Krypt Technologies
Jul 13, 2008We began hosting with Krypt.com a few months ago after see'ing their advertisements on this forum. We've been aware of Krypt.com for years and always had our doubts about the service they could provide due to some information on their website. We try to size companies up before we order from them because we are a very demanding operation. We do have alot of special requests that help us focus on the niche of customers that we have. I guess you could consider us a difficult customer. When we seen Krypts advertisements on here in connection with their recent UnderNET IRC Server link we figured we'd give them a second look. I personally wouldn't be involved in the webhosting business if it weren't for IRC so i'll always credit those companies that are willing to host IRC (given the reputation it has). We spoke with Mark over at krypt originally and he answered all of our sales questions. Everything seemed good, their ordering system was missing some spots for us to input some options (partitions etc...) so we did follow the order up with an e-mail. The e-mails were not being acknowledged and I did not want to have to pay them to reformat a server just because of a missed e-mail. I was later told our e-mails were being put into their spam folders and requested the reason for this but was not provided with an answer. During our sales conversation with Mark he hesitated when we said we'd be doing e-mail, so we assumed Krypt was very careful about who they let e-mail with spam and all so we looked pretty highly at that and assured Mark that we do not participate in any spam operations.
We were provided the server very quick as ordered shortly after that but the server appeared to be defective. We had a number of problems with the server that were finally deemed to be hardware related. Krypt provided us with another server and everything was good after that. Upon launching the server we found out that they were blocking IRC ports. I specially asked about IRC and the possibility of ports being blocked in our sales chat with Mark so I figured this was a breach of our deal. After requesting a cancellation and refund of the service as it was provided on false grounds I was told that IRC would be permitted but they would have to manually open the ports for us. We spoke with both Ted and Tim from Krypt, they both appear to be partners in the company and both had nothing good to say about the UnderNET server they host. They both claimed to have little to nothing to do with it, said it was work for them to even get it linked and benefited nothing from it. I find this hard to believe since krypts services are mentioned right in the irc servers MOTD (thousands see that daily, free advertising). So we knew what we were up against here. Since they did agree to open the ports for us we did consider this to be a mix-up and let things go.
The uptime has been good, haven't seen any network problems but we have had enough trouble that we're moving away from Krypt. Krypt offers the cPanel control panel but is not licensed from cPanel to provide licenses. We assumed that a hosting company of this size would of been licensed by cPanel and didn't even bother to check. We later found out that they have to purchase each license so when we ordered a VPS this weekend (with cpanel on the order) they just supplied the server without cpanel. I wrote in and said wheres the cpanel and they said we have to wait until Monday when cpanel opens to get a license. Now im no newbie here, cpanel doesn't sell individual licenses to companies (unless it's a bulk purchase) so I know this isn't true. They do sell one time yearly licenses but I doubt that's what Krypt was going to do however it's not my business. They provided a product incomplete and then said it would be days until the order would be complete.
There have been minor things here and there with Krypt and we can somewhat look beyond some of the things we encountered, we just expected more from a company that has been around as long as they have. However we found ourselves unable to mail nationwide isps due to the ip space we were provided being blacklisted. We contacted Krypt about this and were told to "E-mail from somewhere else" They said they were a large operation and they have no control over what people do and they are bound to be listed in the spam databases. So to this day, you can't e-mail Comcast customers (at least on our ip blocks). Tim from Krypt argued this point saying they have several comcast customers however he was proven wrong when I asked him to e-mail our comcast account, he said he did, but we never got his e-mail.
So if your looking for an server company that will provide you with blacklisted ip space, isn't licensed by cpanel, provides an IRC server for major network with dismay (yet keeps the advertisements from it) Krypt is your company. It doesn't matter to them anyhow, as they told us, they have thousands of customers and sell alot to China, we all know how well China conducts itself on the internet.
Review Of CPC Technologies
Sep 19, 2009I met James Lumby, the owner of CPC Technologies through QuoteColo. Mr. Lumby’s quotation was so spectacular that I shipped my Dell PowerEdge 1950 to his facility the next day.
Once FedEx got it there, it was online in minutes! We had some issues when the server loaded but the techies were right there ready, willing and able to help. James has done more for me in less than a weeks time then my other data center has since February 2007.
In fact, I am so impressed by his services, I am moving another system to him next week. You can’t go wrong with James and CPC! In my opinion, they are the best!
Krypt Technologies
May 28, 2008Well after an almost heated dispute over a very minor infraction with Krypt Technologies, the company has proven itself to be a company worth looking at.
Anyone that knows Jimmy Woods can tell you, he's a tough cookie to deal with, an idiot, jack*** etc, it's often that im called something new. So when a company surpasses our expectations, it's something to write about.
We've been hosting with Krypt for only a few days, we signed up after seeing an offer posted on the dedicated hosting offers section. We were up and running in a day or so.
We had some problems with the server that were tended to right away and eventually we were provided with a new server with some free upgrades to cover the problems experienced.
Im sure it's not anyones policy just to give out free upgrades because of problems out of their control, but Krypt did. They also worked with us on some other unconventional topics that other companies won't.
You can host with any dedicated server in the world, but only a handful are going to give you the kind of satisfaction and support you need to survive in this business and Krypt Technologies is proving itself, at least with this nut, to be a company worth working with. So if you are in the market for a new dedicated server, I would highly suggest taking a look at these guys, you won't be disappointed.
[One Month Review] CPC Technologies
Sep 17, 2009This is my one month review of CPC Technologies
Well actually getting closer to two months now. And so far it has been smooth, the network has been up 100% of the time so far. I would assume in part due to their Dual 6500 series routers with redundant gigabit providers fed into them.
James (the owner of CPC) was even so kind as to meet me our there the first day as I had decided to drive up to Dallas and install our gear myself. I made it a mini-vacation with my wife so it was fun. I am actually taking a trip up there again this weekend.
CPC is housed in the Colo4Dallas facility in none other than Dallas TX. But you may have known that already.
Overall Recap:
- Solid Network Uptime
- Great Deal on a full Cabinet
- James is great help, naturally his Cisco and networking knowledge greatly exceeds that of my own. I no longer think I'm awesome with my 2950 switch.
- I've already had to call once at 6AM and he did not even flinch. Got me all set with some hands on tech support. This was my fault anyway, I forgot to send up my Lantronix Spider. But in 30-45 minutes I was up and running again. So that rocks my socks off and keeps my clients happy.
If I think of anything else I'll post it as I usually do in my living reviews. If anybody has any questions or if I missed anything let me know. The fact that he operates out of the Colo4Dallas facility is a huge huge plus. Because C4D already rocks by itself, but with CPC it makes it even easier to deal with anything that comes up.

View 7 Replies View RelatedIWeb8 Technologies - A Flat Out Nightmare
Mar 11, 2008I warn you, there is not a single good thing to be said about iWeb8 after our vast experience with them so if you want cliffnotes, picture a man shuffling through around 100 emails, invoices and chat logs while screaming in frustration. I’m attempting to piece together a structured account of our experience at iWeb8 Technologies through all that so bear with me here.
We run a non-commercial website that receives around 20 million page views per month. The problem is we quickly outgrew our technical know-how and had a pickle on our hands once our dedicated server at HostGator started buckling under the pressure. Friday is our most active day, as that’s when we have new content for our members – it’s also the day when our server became virtually inaccessible due to the traffic. We needed a solution, because HostGator basically told us to upgrade our machine or stop bothering them, [click here] for that story.
We narrowed our choices down to 2, SoftLayer or iWeb8 Technologies. We called them both up and learned about their datacenters and what direction we should go with our situation. SoftLayer’s salesman misunderstood a bit (as we later learned, more on that later) and offered us an overwhelmingly costly setup (upwards of $1500+ per month). iWeb8 ‘s sales representative “Brian” reeled us in with a couple promises –
1)The solution they outlined to us (2 web servers, 1 database server) would work.
2)If we opted for Level 5 management ($149/month) they would “treat our servers as if they were their own” (word for word)
We were very excited and worked out the details with them. We were convinced to go with a 12 month plan which would save us money in the long run. Our server manager suddenly switched from “Brian” to “Patrick Bertrand” at that point. And then the problems started.
The very first Friday we were fully set up on their servers, we crashed. We crashed under less traffic than our single cheap dedicated server at HostGator handled. It took iWeb8 1 hour to reboot our server. The next Friday, we crashed. We were down for 3 hours before we were rebooted. On 11/08/07 We asked for a hardware diagnostic and an inquiry into why we were crashing with pretty much twice the power we previously had – they told us we should add 2GB more ram to our servers for $50/month each.
We had them install the 2GB on one server to do them in phases, and thus minimize downtime. After the installation of ram that server performed far worse than it ever did before, and shot up to 100% CPU usage with 1 user online. This was my first experience with the post 6 PM Janitors who man their support staff. Apparently after that timeframe all the knowledgeable techs go home. After hours of waiting and talking on live chat / phone (to the same person every time, the only person who answered…) I was basically told that nobody there could do anything and I would have to wait until 8 AM EST for a senior technician to look at it. OTHERWISE, I could pay $180/hour or some ridiculously high number to get it immediately looked at. That Level 5 support really pays for itself huh?
I hired an emergency outsource administrator to look at it, he quoted me at $200 until the problem is resolved which was a steal. He found that I didn’t need ram at all. It was in fact my faulty motherboard that was causing the problems on that server. Ooooooh! Thanks for doing your “hardware diagnostic” properly and telling us to upgrade our ram for $50/month iWeb8, you’re really looking out for your customers. Finally at 12:15PM EST noon the next day it was looked at and replaced.
Exactly 1 week later on 11/15/07 all of our servers went offline for an hour or two. We were told it was a network issue and it was resolved. Nice.
Now here’s where the monster problems started. On the evening of Tuesday 12/01/07 all of our servers went offline. We opened an emergency ticket and the Janitor responded saying 3 apache modules were missing (huh?) and that it was fixed. Thing is, it wasn’t fixed at all. All 3 servers were still offline and unreachable. Finally our outsourced server admin gets into one of them and sees the load at 150+ with a ton of httpd threads open. He runs netstat and concludes we’re being DDoS attacked. Swing and a miss again, iWeb.
After exchanging pleasantries with the Janitor all night the senior staff finally got in at 8AM. His conclusion was to shut down apache and wait it out, since iWeb8 has no DDoS mitigation systems. Great. 2 days pass and nothing improves. We talk with our server manager to find out if we can terminate our contract and take our business elsewhere due to the pile of [expletive deleted] they’ve dumped on us ever since signing us, and the uselessness of “Level 5” support. He responds saying, and I quote
“Concerning level 5 support, have you requested the monitoring service alerts to be sent to our sysadmin cell phones ? if you did please provide the original RT number so that i can investigate to see why it has not been done on our side”
Wonderful. So you’re basically paying for nothing until you use your psychic powers to determine that you need to request something you thought was assumed with your $149/month. Nowhere when we signed up were we told we had to submit a ticket to request that our Level 5 support is useful. He also mentioned that the original salesman was “wrong” in offering us the phrase “we treat your servers like they’re our own”.
He responds again saying the website is working from his side. We test from 3 ISPs and proxies and we can’t connect, so no, it’s not working. Our server admin determined that their solution involved blocking pretty much all incoming traffic except their own range. We once again requested that the contract be terminated, as we were blatantly lied to on multiple occasions and they’re threatening our website with their poor level of service. He says he needs to discuss it with the higher ups.
At this point I’d already moved my sites to a 2 web server 1 database setup at SoftLayer, they put my site under their Cisco Guard and their team actively worked against my DDoS attack, ending it within a few hours. I’ve been happily at SoftLayer ever since 12/5/07 without any issues on this setup. See my review of them by [clicking here].
Anyway, on 12/17/07 iWeb sends a global email to all their customers informing them that “Improvements will be made to night and weekend customer service”, thus admitting that they were actually manning their Janitors – too little too late though.
On 01/15/07 we still hadn’t heard from them (except for a couple dozen invoices that failed because we weren’t going to send them anything until this was finalized), so we talked to our lawyer and threatened legal measures on iWeb8 if we didn’t hear from them so that we could terminate the contract. On 01/16/07 we got an email from Patrick Bertrand confirming that the contract could be ended, they would send us the details later.
Turns out the details was they wanted 20% of the remaining contract value to terminate, which he ensured me was a “good deal” because “he knows his company and this is the lowest they’ll go”. Is he trying to sell me a car or what? At this point it’s whatever, if we can pay $1,495.26 (20% of the remaining contract) to make the iWeb8 nightmare end, let’s do it. So we did, on 01/25/08 we paid the entire amount and our contract was effectively terminated.
Now in March the nightmare returns. We receive an email from them demanding that we pay $740.00 for “services” rendered from the period of when he said he’d talk to the higher ups till we were waiting for them to do virtually nothing until we called them up in January.
At this point we’re weighing the option of paying off these swindlers and being done with it once and for all (even though they’ll probably come back to us in June with “interest” invoices on this current one) against fighting it. That’s where we’re at now… I hope this was enlightening for you if you’re considering falling for iWeb’s lies, random surcharges and all in all horrible service.
Layered Technologies Abuse Contact Information

Midphase VPS Feedback?
Sep 23, 2007Am considering Midphase's VPS as an upgrade from shared and after searching the net am fairly comfortable with them at this point. However, knowing that most happy/content customers usually don't think about writing a review and the dissatisfied ones sometimes do...I'm posting this question not as an opportunity to bash but to be informative.
Keeping that in mind, my specs are as follows:
1) Run 3 Wordpress blogs (one of which is picking up steam fairly fast)
2) Have 2 static sites that may see increased traffic. (At this point they do not but one is an offshoot of the blog with the most traffic so this may change)
3) Have a SMF forum setup for family that is fairly active.
4) I like to try out various scripts for review.
I'm looking for any feedback from current Midphase VPS customers or past ones. Like I said, this is not an invitation to bash them. That can be done somewhere else. I'm looking for those with experience with their company's VPS hosting.
I am presently a shared hosting customer with them on their Linux plan and would prefer to keep with Linux over windoze.

- Running Apache/mysql
- New server with no traffic yet
- R1Soft with mysql plug-in
- WHM/CPanel
- Standard FTP/Mail/DNS that comes with CPanel
Here is the info from WHM:

View 8 Replies View RelatedGigenet: First Feedback = MORE THAN BAD
Oct 18, 2008Our website, hosted in Canada, came under DDOS attack 4 days ago and our IP immediately got null routed. I understand this action.
As Gigenet is reputed for being good there, I contacted them, among other suppliers of remote protection.
A first chat with Derek at Gigenet.com was pretty good, despite I got disconnected a few times due to my internet connection problems. Derek quickly supplied a test IP, and I sent the website there. Unfortunately (!) the attack had stopped and he could not see anything. Then I got disconnected and could not connect again before the morning
In the morning I sent an email to Derek as he was not online, asking him some details about the setup, especially technical modifications we would have to make to our scripts.
I had to wait TWO days to get a reply, more than short. I emailed him again.
I connected again yesterday on Gigenet, could catch Derek 2 minutes, he said "I reply to your email quickly". I told him we are waiting his reply to subscribe to their proxyshield protection.
After 2 hours wait, I went to the gigenet chat again and John Lee helped me a lot, replying to my questions, but the last one "must be replied by Derek", he said. Concerning the price and concrete setup. He told me that Derek will reply immediately after his conference.
I went to bed as I am in another TZ, thinking that I will get his email during the night.
Morning; NO email. And now the chat is closed until Monday. So I sent an email to "sales", asking in short if gigenet is a serious company or what. FOUR DAYS offline due to attacks!
Mister Ameen Pishdadi kindly replied me right now "We are not interested in working on this project with you as you are not being attacked on the demo account we gave you.
When you have a real attack please contact us."
What is this crap? As soon as we are attacked we are null routed and I promised my hosting company we won't connect the site again without protection!
And gigenet does not sell their program (at $1300 by month, first level!) as a PREVENTIVE action?
I am more than disappointed by this so called "good company". If somebody could tell me an email of a HIGH executive, thank you. Writing to "sales@gigenet.com" will probably be without result.

Dedicated Servers Feedback
Oct 2, 2009In these past many years I have used 7 major data centers which provide collocation and dedicated servers.
Out of these 7 provides, what would make a client impressed?
One is off course the level of reliability, the network must be up without anyone bothering it.
Second is the level of security, when someone is bothering it, their team must be extremely responsive to provide help to restore service back to normal, it doesn't matter if there is an additional fee for it, availability is crucial.
Third would be the response time, which is critical, because this gets personal. When a client needs an "urgent" help, if the provider successfully responded the urgency in a timely manner, it will build an great sense of trust.
It's like you as the provider is storing up "trust funds" into your clients. If you keep doing this, when something bad happens, you will have enough trust funds deposited into your client's faith, so they will eventually understand the situation.
From these many years of using many major provider, I can only experience an amazing level of service from one single provider, which are always dependable and are able to respond to my inquiries within minutes, not hours.
A client expect a reply in minutes when they are leasing a dedicated server or even collocating their servers with a provider.
So far, only one seems to be able to provide such an excellent service.
This is not a rating about a particular provider, but I would like to give an input to dedicated server providers on what's important when it comes to building a good client relationship.
Willing to do an extra mile help would definitely a big plus which I also experience with the same provider.
Lastly, I would like to leave my total satisfaction review for the one provider which surpasses my expectation being their client. The one and only provider which I personally experienced an outstanding level of service is ThePlanet.
With their pricing, the level of service I received as a client is outstanding.
