When I saw last years voting results, I wondered why something is not appropriate. Of course, this is a matter of a personal opinion and perception of target results.
The current system of voting allows three votes and does not require voters to vote their choice in a sequence. The sequence 1., 2., 3. is here irrelevant and, thus, comprises of three uncategorised votes. Even providers are not defined. Of course, current voting system will have one provider common amongst all qualified votes within one of the three votes.
As a result, system of casting three uncategorised votes amongst undefined providers moves their votes among these three votes. Having found upon counting one common provider out of these three votes of a caster, the remaining two votes becomes useless. That may drastically differ in a targetted voting system amongst providers too.
This is produces inefficient results as compared to targetted voting system. In the current system, one favourite will appear, who would have offered customers either one of these targetted categories and made them happy overall, however.
Instead, I would have used these two votes, which became useless while counting, for other targetted categories. I would have preferred to see here a targetted voting under specific categories, for e.g. in total 5 votes, as follows:
Consequently, every vote caste in one of the above five votes would be targetted. A total of - for e.g. 400 voters - would give a targetted results amongst voters and hosting providers within all qualified total votes amongst them as well as amongst these categories.
Let me explain: For e.g. Racknerd, who was voted last year 2020. Then, the last year results would have been comparable to above suggested system based on one category 2. but shall have excluded two useless votes. It would then declare results (based on my suggestion of system) either against Racknerd the same in category 1) or other providers.
Therefore, the suggested system would have given other providers a chance in other categories at the same time, while Racknerd would have a place in all these categories (and may have won the votes too).
In no particular order:
Hi MrWonder, thanks for the suggestion, we will consider it for our future provider poll. I understand what you meant and therefore we have the additional vote for "Most Professional" to solve this. I realise I might not have explained it clearly.
Let's take this vote as an example:
The enhancement this year is for Company D, it will also add 1 vote to the "Top Provider" votes count, in addition to the "Most Professional" category.
In the past, the providers who got selected as "Most Professional" are not included in the counting of "Top Provider" votes, which is unfair for Company D.
Most Professional: Hetzner
Hi @FAT32 ,
Just for clarification, consider the following configuration of votes:
Would this count as one or two votes for B?
As per my Personal use cases,
These carriers I have Used & didn't have contacted Customer Once on past years ( since I haven't had faced any issues )
1) Hosthatch.
2) Cloudcone.
3)Alphavps.
Ever above one have delivered what they had promised & their Servers are Rock solid Perfomers.
Few Suggestions
But HostHatch needs some Support desk improvements, Cloudcone needs to open New EU locations. Whereas Alphavps requires none.
Adios
