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.

Please provide your feedback on their stability/pricing and any comparisons you can make with it and HE/Internap.
Anyone had any experiences good or bad with Peer1 in Miami? The first concern that comes to mind is hurricanes but it's hard to find a datacenter that's not in the path of some sort of natural disaster potential.

I came across a handful of posts from 2005 and 2006 about problems in NYC, and there are two or three people on WHT who seem to have long-standing issues with Peer1, but I haven't found a single thread labeled "Peer1 outage" or "Peer1 downtime", which -- considering the size of the company -- makes them seem very stable.
What I'd like to hear is some specific reports from people who colo with Peer1 (especially those in Los Angeles) about how much annual downtime and packetloss is typical with Peer1. How many power outages, and for how long? How many router issues, and for how long? That kind of thing...
The longer you've been with Peer1, the better, but issues covering the last 2-3 years would probably be most relevant (things can change a lot from 4+ years ago). I'd just like to go into this feeling confident that I'm making the right choice. [It's a big step because I'm thousands of miles from L.A. and need things to work -- I don't want to have to move once I'm there.]
Finally, while I am obviously leaning toward Peer1, I'm also open to suggestions for other colo providers in Los Angeles. However, they have to be stable companies with a proven track record and fast 24/7 support -- If I call at 4 in the morning, I need an engineer on the phone standing by my server in a matter of minutes. I also need the security of a company that is big enough (and charges enough) that it won't be going out of business two years from now.
Has anyone had any experience with Peer1's Toronto datacenter?
View 0 Replies View RelatedAll I want to do is buy the parts and ship them to some company that lives on the Peer1 network and build a single unit. I know this can be done, but does anybody know of a company that offers 1U colo on Peer1's network? (in NY)
View 14 Replies View RelatedWe need people with Peer1 as a backbone and where we can (with a planned schedule that we can arrange with you) go in frequently to do maintenance on the server.
We need this in both Vancouver and New York.
We'd just get collocation directly from Peer1 in those parts but it's too costly.
Anyone know of where to go?
If not, anyone know of any companies there that peer with Peer1 in that area whose colo is cheaper?
Who are the people/companies with a good reputation with the WHT community who provide Internap or Peer1 colo? And it seems it's mostly in LA or NY, I know both Peer1 and Internap have a presence in other places, is there anyone reselling out of anywhere else?
Pure Internap or Pure Peer1 hosts only please. The only one I know of right now is H4Y.us
I just moved 3 servers to colo with Peer1 in Miami. I just had 3 great years of colo with Fluidhosting so my standards are high. I wanted to buy directly from a Tier2, however, and Miami is close enough that I can access the datacenter if I need to which will be a plus.
My sales rep, Delynn, was great. Many of you are hosts and know that buying directly from Tier1's and Tier2's can be a pain in the butt because of the typical big company sales approach. You know when they refuse to give you a price and instead insist on knowing what your "budget" is... Delynn didn't do that, Peer1 has some great deals for smaller setups like 1/8th cabinets w/ 5mbps. They also gave me a month to month contract for a modest increase over the full year contract amount.
As for setup: The servers were installed within 2 hours of arriving on a Saturday. The tech gave me a call and confirmed everything was ok and that my 3 servers + unmanaged switch were doing ok on the 5 amp circuit since my servers are pretty low power usage. Their NOC is very smart and fast and available 24/7 afaik.
Important things to note: Luckily the day before my servers arrived I had an "oh @#%@" moment when I realized that I'd probably need to send them my own switch/power strip/ethernet cables. Sure enough this was the case and I overnighted a box to arrive at the same time as my servers. IMO this is a rather small caveat. It's not a big deal to send them a 50-100 dollar 100mbps unmanaged switch that's only using 0.2 amps.
So it's been "so far so good" I've been a fan of the Peer1 network since years ago when Fluidhosting used to carry them. As one would expect the Peer1 Miami pings to Europe/Asia aren't as good as the Internap routes from the northeast but I'm expecting the nearly flawless Peer1 network connectivity that I remember. I will give a network update in a few months.
I have a very specific need to fill for a client. But I need someone who has colocation or dedicated server space in Vancouver, or New York.
You'd take a cut of profits made for helping, plus the idea is just damn cool.
You need to have:
-Peer1 upstream.
-Physical access to your servers.
im looking to spend $1000USD per month on a dedicated windows server (mission critical). But not sure which one to go with, which one is reliable rackspace, peer1, liquidweb or webair?
p.s I dont really need managed webhosting, mainly require a good network with 100% up time, hardware support and server monitoring alert.
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?

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.

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.

any reviews on vpsrush?
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..
Does anyone have any experience with WholesaleInternet? How's the uptime, support, etc...

View 14 Replies View RelatedSince 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.
