Poll: UGVPS to Launch KVM.. But where?
Hello everyone
UGVPS has decided to launch KVM but not sure where to go. We would like to get some feedback from the community on what location to deploy KVM.
Cast your vote!
- Lenoir, North Carolina (Dacentec)
- Chicago, Illinois (ColoCrossing)
- Los Angeles, California (ColoCrossing on Quadranet)
- Coventry, United Kingdom (UK Servers)
Which ever location gets the most votes will be our first deployment. Anyone who votes will get a 40% coupon for the first month when the service launches.
Planned launch is approximately in a few months. We are testing the KVM environment locally as I'm typing this. As always we value the community's opinion.
Thank you,
Crystal

Even though Dacentec are great..would have to be the UK
I'd like UK because I'm in the EU :P.
UK, only because it would be faster for me.
Wherever you do go though, I hope you have the same sort of 2GB deals you have with OpenVZ
Chicago - central to US.
Currently tossing around 1GB @ 6.99USD but subject to change.

LA
Personally prefer LA, for the speed is best their from my place. Also, UK would be nice, but there seems to be many UK/EU providers offering KVM while I can only recall a few whom do this in US.
As for the plan, I'm interested in low RAM ones, for DNS/Monitoring/testing and so on
Chicago! Me gusta Chicago.
REVOKED
Well, theres a new guy in coventry!
On route, driving down to the datacenter now. :-)
I edited my post. :P
Huh?
UK.
Lots of UK love.
Uk
i vote for Chicago, Illinois.
Loads of providers in the UK.
I updated the Post to give the datacenters being used. If anyone wants to change vote or reinforce their vote so be it
-Crystal
Ah in which case, vote removed.
@DeanClinton No vote? lol
We have so much ColoCrossing these days..
No. After the last e-Mail I received from you regarding UKServers (titled UK Customers - Failed by UKservers.com again.), i'll not be interested in one there, sorry!
Not interested in more ColoCrossing either
UKServers is rather stable. We just had some hardware issues in the beginning with the node. Its been solid since it was straightened out. Honestly, the network is awesome there. We LOVE IT.

+1 Already had at least two containers from different vps providers but in the same ColoCrossing datacenter, I'd like some different network, if I need more boxes :P
@UGVPS no thanks - had a dedicated with them waaaaaay back in the day (when they first started out); wasn't that impressed back then either.
Thanks all the same - will be interesting to see how it fares for you.
@AstroProfundis
Theres really only two games in Chicago, ColoCrossing is just well the one everyone goes with. I never tested the other DC continuum or something. I'm not sure how they perform.
Steadfast are in chicago I think? Apparantely they are good.
NC and UK
@UGVPS The short version is: they are nice
Long version is: just keep on with them as long as they performs all good. I personally would put some of my eggs in different baskets, and this doesn't mean I wouldn't use ColoCrossing, I mean, just not too much more
Waiting to see your KVM offer.
