out of the poll i would choose Ramnode, i have tried them before they were good, top service and fast support
Just try both for about a month. Decide later for long term commitment
I have been using both now for some time.
The only issue I have had with Iniz is that performing backups with tar/gzip has tripped the high IO usage. Apparently this caused really slow disk IO for other users on the same node and I was suspended. This was really surprising as the script just performs mysqldump and tars some files, approx 900Mb archive.
Using the same scripts on Ramnode servers I never had an issue.
This is really the best way to go about these things.
@epaslv thanks for confirming what I experienced with iniz.. I tried 60mb tar backup and the load went up to 4+ from 0.6 when I was with iniz.
I have nearly a dozen vps from different providers ( including all 4 ramnode locations ) and never had this issue with others.
ramnode is the best.
I have VPS's with both, support is faster with Ramnode.
And the speeds on Ramnode are much better (Both network and disc speeds).
I've been with Ramnode for awhile and have really enjoyed the service that Nick provides so I can highly recommend Ramnode! However I also just purchased a new vps with INIZ (I couldn't pass up a 4GB VPS for only $7) so I'm excited to see how INIZ compares to Ramnode .
Did Patrick suspend you for this? If not, what's the big deal? I have a site which provides Android ROMS. I used to have daily 1.7 GB backups before I tried incremental tar. I never had any issues creating a tar archive. I didnt keep looking at the load though.
i am using ramnode and satisfied with the service. the only thing is that it does not like the fact that i am in china now. so when i first signed up, it marked me as fraud. but after i told them that i am a us citizen living in china at the moment, they let me buy. so now when i sign in to my account at ramnode, i always see something marked as fraud and FRAUD is a strong accusation and i am not sure if i feel happy looking at it too ofen.
I had the same issue with Iniz. For some reason making tars/zips creates high IO usage on their servers but I haven't had this issue on any other host but other then that Iniz is a really good host.
Ramnode because best vps host I used so far.
