JiffyBox Users?
Hola!
I've been wondering whether we have some JiffyBox users here.
What do you think about their plans/prices? And how would you rate them based on the service you had with them (performance, speed, network and so on)?
I am really interested to hear what you think.
P.S.: I mean this http://www.df.eu/de/cloud-hosting/cloud-server/
Personally I use their first cloud level with normal HDD for 0,02€/hour for testing and projects. Once I don't need it I can delete it or freeze it (costs 0,005€/hour when it's freezed).
Running it 24x7 a whole month would be roughtly 15€ (14.88€) for 2 GB RAM, 75 GB HDD, 1 GBit/s port unmetered with 3 Cores (Xen-PV).
Oh and I still have 43€ of 50€ credits so I am not paying a single cent til that 50€ are used up.

been with them for over one year, never had any issues nor had seen downtimes so far.
very recommended, esp. for development purposes, where you may freeze your box to be low on costs (without loosing your assigned IPv4)...
they have a lot of features like automated rotating backups, choice of partitioning your box and so on... i just will unfreeze my box to let bench.sh run ;-)

this is an older box I already had before SSD was available... maybe I should repartition it to fit on first SSD cloud level and rerun bench at all ;-)
edit: done as described, dd-bench on SSD cloud level looks like this >>>
