Reliable provider thread

Hello,

I'd like all of you to share the names of server providers that you have been with for atleast 1 year with a overall positive experience.

I myself have been looking throughout the years for providers that wont ever let you down and out of many i've found 3 so far.

  1. liteserver.nl

  2. seflow.it

  3. getkvm.com

I'm still searching for more providers where you put a long-time commitment on.

What would your current list look like? feel free to share it with us!

keep in mind that everyone shares his list based on his own experience.

Thank you!

    I'd go with SecureDragon. I've been with them for a couple of years, now, everything about them is quality - VPS performance, support and even their custom panel is excellent.

    There are plenty of other hosts I like, but I have to say SecureDragon are probably the most dependable of all that I've used.

  • I haven't used them a year but I have to +1 for SecureDragon. Don't see a lot of love for them but they're the most stable box I have and their Wyvern control panel is nice.

    I have a positive experience with securedragon too on their ddos protected openvz plan, their support was really great but I haven't been there long enough to rate them overall due latency issues NL -> Portland, I had to cancel because the location was just too far away from me.

  • matthewvzmatthewvz Member, Host Rep

    I've had/have production sites on all three of these providers so my vote for reliable providers go to:

    SecureDragon: I had a VPS with them for quite some time, always had 100% uptime.

    HighSpeedWeb/Hostigation: I have a 15/year 256MB VPS in LA with them, only downtime I've had with them so far was a node reboot.

    RamNode: I have multiple VPS's with them in Atlanta. VPS uptime has been great but lately I've been noticing some network issues. Great performance, okay network.

    I think since @KuJoe quit here they've dropped off the radar a bit, which is a shame.

    They're in Atlanta now, so you may want to reconsider. I've got a container there, so if you want a traceroute or something, let me know.

    I've used SecureDragon for over a year, and I've got 4 vps with them. They are pretty good.

    There's a looking glass where you can run traceroutes from all of their locations at drgn.biz now.

  • georgegeorge Member

    Anyone else with liteserver.nl?

    Nice! Didn't realise they had a NJ location, seems like the best latency to Europe unsurprisingly.

    Isn't that the guy who starts brands and then sells 'em off?

    OK :) It's just confusing.

    My most-reliable list of VPS providers I've used for more than one year, regardless of price, ranked in order, is:

    1. LFC - https://www.lfchosting.com/
    2. Linode - https://www.linode.com/
    3. RamNode - http://ramnode.com/

    I've been a customer pretty much from the start, even after the takeover everything was being handled perfect. Whoever sold getkvm to another company atleast sold it to a really good one.

    Atlanta? Random IP drops?

    My VPS is also in Atlanta, very good. Might have to try NJ if it's that good to Europe though.

    • Prometeus (iwStack/KVM, 2 locations; had their openvz for years)
    • Dacentec (RTO, excellent performance and stability)
    • OpenITC (KVM)
    • Flipperhost (OpenVZ, 2 locations)
    • IPXCore (OpenVZ)
    • LetBox (OpenVZ)

    A few that are looking promising:

    • HostUS (KVM; hasn't been a year yet, but nice stability & performance so far)
    • BlueVM (KVM, 2 locations; hasn't been a year yet, but nice stability & performance so far)
    • Virtovo (KVM, 2 locations; they haven't been around a year yet)


    Some providers may not match popular LET sentiments, but they have worked well for me.

    It is a BIG deal for me to trust any provider enough to have two locations with them.

  • HTTP Zoom, BlueVM KVM, RamNode.

    Reliable for me is if everything works as promised, and doesn't go down for too long!

  • Amazon AWS

  • QuickPacket -Great Support, Uptime, and Network in Alanta

    Not yet a year but VPSDime has has 100% uptime for me with a great network ever since I signed up.

  • BoxodeBoxode Member

    BuyVM have been great. Reliable, no downtime at all in the last 3 months.
