Quarterly Top Provider Poll

angstrom

buyvm, evoburst, hostigation

(The order is alphabetic.)

1. digitalocean - support was quick to jump on one issue in a few minutes that I monitored on piwik, haha. they were quite helpful too with about 5 tickets I needed in less than 6 months as a complete noob.
2. online.net - they were helpful as well with my shirt ticket and a few other panic questions about my loss-leader kidechire

New - lowendspirit.com is new to me, so I will order more servers from them soon. The instructions were clear on wtf you need to do on the server and you can use tun/tap on your server too.

1. Prometeus
2. BuyVM
3. Ramnode

trvz

• Vultr, for having the best network in almost every one of my tests.
• Vscale, for bringing hourly servers with modern hardware to an underserved region. Discovered on vpsBoard.
• MikroVPS, for offering decent servers in another underserver country and being a small sympathetic provider.

2. @dediserve : Friendly Support, Good Freebies, Best VM.

3. BoltVM : Nice Deals, Nice Uptime except IP changes before.

1. EthernetServers - awesome support (best I've ever seen actually), fast I/O and network speeds.
   
2. BuyVM - fast servers, great DDoS protection and is quite affordable (imo).
   
3. OVH - "decent" (emphasis on the word "decent") support, but the 2016 VPS line is pretty fast (in terms of speed).
   
   

Best new provider: GoMach5 - isn't cheap, but is pretty good (DDoS protection wise).

In the order they've come to me:

Inception Hosting - Pretty much my go-to provider when I need something. In addition to the LowEndSpirit plans, @AnthonySmith's Xen plans are an unbeatable combo of fantastic performance and incredible value.

Fiberoute - A real London location, insanely fast network, high performance KVM plans? What's not to like. The work of one of the true gents of LE*, @Infinity

Luna Node - I still find this vaguely insane. A massive selection of features, genuine hourly billing, great performance, all at a low-end price. Other hosts should be taking note, this is the future.

Can't think of any newbies to vote for unfortunately.

• Ramnode

• Online.net
  This will probably not count since it's basically shell access & I haven't used them in a long time but they were extremely good back then:

• Whatbox

(I leave it to mods discretion if it should be counted or not).

Prometeus - self explanatory

BuyVM - I love the whole team there and the new BuyShared line is awesome for the price

Online.net - great pricing and deals, can't wait to try out their ARM servers

New provider: MXRoute

I don't know if that counts or not, but the only new providerish I could really think off that deserved it.

1. MyCustomHosting - Great service for kvm 4GB $7/mo. no worry with raid 0, because i have backup
   
2. OVH (VPS 2016, VPS Classic 2014, RunAbove) - VPS 2016/Classic for large BW only from ~3/mo with good performance. RunAbove good CPU & uptime
   
3. Prometeus - still my favorite provider

Ramnode, VMBox and Dacentec

Silvenga

Dacentec - Best support I've ever seen. Period.

Delimiter - Mainly for @MarkTurner's involvement. I also love the different innovations in the works.

BoltVM - Great performance for the cost. Currently has the highest uptime of all my boxes.

Best new provider: SpeedyKVM (if they are a new provider) - the whole setup is neat and sharp.

Honorable mentions - VPSDime (missing them here), RamNode (a premium LEB provider), MyCustomHosting (unfortunately moved too far away from Canada)
