Delimiter VPS, a review of the poorest provider I used so far.

Comments

  • I wouldn't comment on anything as I have the refund now. I just wanted to clarify to Mark that I hadn't received it earlier.

  • My experience with delimiter is the servers have a relatively bad network, but beyond that, it's good. If they had a better network i would for sure host there :/

  • That network is okay. I have seen a lot worse around here and people call them good. IO is okay as well. It is non ssd right? @jarland

    Yeah just a regular spinning sata doing it's job. Not bad at all.

  • Can't ask for much more than that at the price point. Looks like a hell of a deal to me, but what do I know.

  • I'm still waiting for mine :/

    I got a similar result too.

  • One SATA disk is the same as another +/- few %. If you want more performance then I'd be looking at a fast processor first.

    Unless they have fixed their network since a few months ago, It hops from cogent to comcast going to my state, generating 100ms+ ping.

    I get about 70-100ms ping from Texas on average. It's not the best route but the throughput is good. My alternative is Canada or France so it's around where I'm comfortable with. I also use Cloudflare for production sites and it mostly makes up for small latency concerns. Definitely worth noting though, it's not usually the best ping from US to US but not bad.

    True, but when you do what I do (game servers), that is a huge concern :P

  • Yea I agree that right now it isn't the best because of Cogent but it is still decent and Mark has said they are working on better routing to Comcast so hopefully that part will improve.

  • Yeah network seems to randomly jump routes or so. Mark here has been good with resolving issues though and has said its being worked on. Zero complains for their service though.

  • How long you guys been waiting? Grabbed one 3 working days ago to mess about with to test network etc and still waiting.

    3-4 days is about right from what I'm seeing. I'd guess you will have it tomorrow.

    @xcubehost if this helps you out any I ordered last Monday on the holiday and didn't receive til Sunday. I'm sure Wednesday counted as my day they reviewed (since they had network issues that Tuesday I believe) the order and then 1-3 after that.

  • I orded an Atom230 in Jan.16, and still do not got service delivered , opened a ticket about this issue, not got any response after 3 bussiness days.

  • @Ning - PM me your email address so I can investigate

  • Just got my Atom delivered , would try it after the OS installation is completed,thanks!

  • That is pretty decent for $5 :-).

    Ordered two servers and was planning to order 2-3 more but i had not received delivery yet for 1st one after 4 days and the second after 3 days. Ticket asking update still unanswered ...

  • Mine took about four days. 29ms ping to my home. Sales ticket response was a bit terse but fantastic support from Brian T. in getting some initial setup issues resolved.

    IMO, the server I got might need a IPMI firmware upgrade, I can't get the remote KVM to load in IE10, I had a similar issue with a local server that was fixed with a firmware upgrade. I don't really need it for the way I run my server but it might be an issue for some folks.

    Happy enough with the network that I ordered the Atom for a year @MarkTurner can you get me volume discounts? :-)

    Talsit, you can use IE compatibility mode to use the IPMI without firmware upgrade.

  • Thanks, I'll give it a try!

  • Can the Atom 230 to hosting daily 15-20K IP's wordpress?

  • @Jupiter - can you PM me your email address, I'll investigate for you

  • @talsit - are you being caught on the Java unsigned jar issue?
