Anyone dealt with them in the past? Any experiences to share? I've been eyeing one of there Virtual Private Server plans...

My position is that anyone who offers "unlimited" better show me the hard drive/pipe that can do it, as I haven't seen one myself. :)

Thanks,

There "unlimited" isn't really unlimited if you look at it.

Unlimited if you don't use image galleries, downloads, forums, anything with members, and a bunch of other rules, otherwise they limit it. More of a marketing thing then anything else it seems, as the more expensive plans all come with limits ;)

The pipe is a 100 mbs connection on each server.

Yeah....nothing like the fine print.

100 mb isn't that fast since most computers and servers that have a built in NIC is usually a gigabyte ethernet.

Personally, I have a low opinion for VPS. Read about too many issues with them.
Then again, some folks have good luck with them. I just wouldn't use them for anything 'heavy', like serious forums, etc.

But paying for a full dedicated isn't a option right now, and I'd like a little more control then a shared host will give me. Plus to learn a little more about running my own shared space ;)

So I figure this should give me what I want until the time comes to upgrade to a full dedicated server.

Anyways, been doing a bunch more poking around, and liquidweb.com and servint.net are also looking like options.

No they don't, I'm looking for a virtual private host. Shared hosting and me haven't been getting along, and a dedicated ia more $$ then I am willing to put into it right now.

Okay....I will possibly look around for you or ask people I know if they have any recommendations....if you don't mind.

Don't dig to hard, I've been doing a lot and will likely be ordered in the next few days. (Just waiting on a transfer into my paypal account)

What are your requirements?

Vurtual Private Server
Good support
Good Network
256 ram, more burstable
Plesk or CPanel, unlimited user license
root access
room to grow
$50 or less a month, monthly payments.

probably a few other things, but thats the off the top of my head version ;)

Basically I'm looking for a good stable place to put a few sites and learn about managing a web server, not bottm end, but on the lower scale of a good quality place with room to grow into if needed in the future.

Ended up going with Servint

Their network isn't the fastest by the sounds of things, but their support is. Network isn't too bad, just not the speediest out there.

So far, all things have gone well, things get done and answered within a few minutes (granted their hasn't been a lot of things) and my site is up :D

I've heard good things on them. I use a reseller of theirs for 1 server.
