As you know, OVH has two data centers in the U.S.: Hillsboro and Vint Hill.
Does anyone rent servers there? Are there any complaints about uptime and speed within the U.S.?
Any opinions and experiences are welcome.
Hi there! I am looking to rent a dedicated server at WebNX on their Utah DC.
Anybody have experiences with them ?
I come to tell you a little about my experience in QPS.
I have hired 6 dedicated servers.
The delivery was quite fast, less than 24 hours.
The network in all this time monitored 24/7 with 100% uptime and speed between 500 to 900 mbps
the hardware has been really good, I only had a slight problem with a disk in one of the servers but it could have probably been due to software damage. change the server and everything is perfect.
Thanks to QPS, it helped me to run a stable business and my customers were very happy.
Hello,
i need to rent 10G network and some servers,
i need like BGP and cross connect, but as i not have time and so much cost for fees etc, its possible i ask some provider provide me this? will anyone do this or its impossible?
where i should go?
Thanks
I have some servers at Hivelocity, since 2017.
No network problems, 100% uptime, excellent hardware and support.
Yesterday, after 2 or 3 years, one of the backup disks on one of my servers, failed.
I opened a ticket asking how to change to a new HDD. To my surprise, the support offered the possibility to clone the disk to try to recover the data. Despite being a backup disk, it would be good to recover, as I had left some old accounts there.
Then they removed the HDD and cloned it in 3 hours, for a new HDD. And it worked! all recovered data. Of course, it will not always be possible to recover, it will depend on the problem that the HDD presents.
And during the whole process, the Hivelocity support team was very active, I scheduled to shut down the server after 7PM (so they can insert the new drive) and minutes before they wrote saying "we are ready to install the new HDD, you just have to shutdown the server". Never, but never, have I seen this type of concern with the customer, in the datacenters where I have been. I'm in this market this 2004, I had servers at The Planet, Layered Tech, Host Dime, LiquidWeb, and so many others that don't even exist anymore.
I've had servers in other companies, which were managed, and I didn't have support like that. My servers at Hivelocity have no management, but they go beyond what was expected, gave me all the support from beginning to end of the process, offered the data recovery service for free and even warned that they will save the old HDD for a week, for any emergency.
Thanks Hivelocity, I only have one thing to ask: keep it up, "this is the way".
Looking to rent some dedicated storage servers with the following specs
- 4 servers
- 12-18 cores
- 64* or 128gb ram
- 80-100TB - SATA HDD/each + OS disks 250-500SSD
- 5 to 10gbps uplink unmetered
- Location [US] [EU] - [any State/City]
We would need an internal network connecting all these systems together @ 5-10gbps. Also, we would likely be looking to upgrade our external bandwidth over time.
[contract time] 2+ years / paid monthly
if anyone knows good providers please <<post here>>
Background
We run a game server hosting company which has been running since 2012. We currently rent roughly 200 dedicated servers from 6 different providers. We currently rent roughly 60 of these dedicated servers from WebNX. We've been with them for just over 7 years and I can safely say that they've been the best datacentre we've used. I know how important reviews are to a company; I feel that we've used WebNX long enough to write an honest review.
Support
We've had our fair share of rubbish support from datacentres in the past. WebNX definitely provides the best support out of all the datacentres we've used. During the past 7 years, I'd say the average response time for a ticket at WebNX was about 10 minutes. We've found the biggest issue with large datacentres is that their support teams are disjointed. This leads to issues which "don't fit the norm" taking a long time to resolve. WebNX is large enough to provide 24/7 365 day support yet small enough to provide genuinely good "straight to the point" support.
Reliability / Uptime
All the datacentres we've used have had some sort of major outage at some point in time. During the 7 years, there have been a couple of network outages at WebNX but the issues have always been resolved quickly along with good communication. Considering the number of servers we have with them, I'd say the uptime is incredibly high.
Hardware
During the past 7 years we've switched our server hardware roughly 4 or 5 times. It's as simple as contacting them letting them know what hardware you like, they provide a reasonably priced quote and in a couple of days, the server is delivered. I'd say on average, broken hardware is resolved in roughly an hour from us opening the ticket.
DDoS Protection
I'd say this is the downside of WebNX. They'll automatically nullroute the IP address if a DDoS attack is detected. The amount of time the IP address is nullrouted depends on how much traffic the attack is sending. It's not really a huge issue for us as we can quickly work out which one of our clients was targeted and then get migrate them over to a DDoS protected IP address. I'm hoping at some stage they'll provide onsite DDoS protection.
Price
They're very reasonably priced considering the support and customisation which they offer.
Network
WebNX's network is top notch. Nothing to complain about at all.
Keep up the great work WebNX! Would be great if you could get another datacentre setup in East Coast USA.
Hello,
I know that servers with EPYC CPUs are very reliable, but are Ryzen servers reliable enough? I've seen there're many Ryzen servers on sale on Hetzner. If I rent a Ryzen server, do I need to reboot it every some days? Thanks a lot.
Hello,
I'm looking for a good host to host a Tor exit node relay, is Psychz a good match? About the complaints? Do they listen or do they shut down the server at the slightest suspicion?
Thank you!
I'm going to tell you how HostSlim.eu deceives me !

I saw their AD on WHT and I am looking for some good servers. Since I have a large number of servers at LeaseWeb that need to provide data transfer, I want to move to their data center.
I ordered 15 servers from them from 17th May at a cost of 1600 Euros.
They promised to deliver the server to me on May 20th, so that I have 10 days to transfer the server of LeaseWeb.
But now 22 days have passed and I have not received any available servers and they have sent me 2 damaged servers (no IPMI, no system installed)!
Importantly, they didn't with my consent to withhold money directly from my credit card. They are now closing the ticket and will not reply to any questions from me.
I have saved all the information records and if necessary, I will post them here.
i am in need of a good provider in new york. I need them to be modern servers (no old xeons), uptime needs to be excellent, any tips please?
