Hello everyone!

For those of you who don't know us, Catalyst Host is a product of Ryan Arp and myself (Jarland Donnell). What I want you to know is that we're not just a service provider. We are active on Lowendtalk and we're also customers.

Catalyst Host continues to grow, thanks to our loyal customers. Thank you!

I'd like to introduce the third member of our staff, Don who is also known as @halfeatenpie. He is a great addition to our team and is also glad to assist you in any way that he can.

Now for the reason you are reading this, the promo deals!

Data backup policy:

All data on these plans are backed up weekly in Dallas and stored offsite. Our backups are for emergencies. Your user generated backups are for small issues. We only guarantee access to our offsite backups if we are responsible for data loss. This helps keep our costs reasonable while providing two different layers of backups for your important data.

About our Dallas datacenter:

The network behind our Dallas servers is multi-homed with multiple 10Gbit connections and redundant Juniper routing with HSRP failover. Network and hardware conditions are monitored 24/7/365. Spare hardware is always stocked and available on site. We utilize A+B power for redundancy in case of brownouts, which are rare in Dallas.

Our hardware is as follows in Dallas:

Node5:
1x Xeon E5-2620
64GB ECC Memory
4x 1TB Enterprise SATA
LSI 9260-4i w/BBU & 512MB Cache

Node6 (Current standard for future nodes):
2x Xeon E5-2620
64GB ECC Memory
8x 500GB Enterprise SATA
LSI 9260-8i w/BBU & 512MB Cache

What makes Catalyst Host a special company?

If you're not going to do something right, don't bother doing it.

Catalyst Host has been in business since early 2011.

We are not here to give you the most imaginary resources you can't use for the least dollar signs. We are here to give you the best quality, with what I estimate to be some of the least oversold nodes in our market. You have the peace of mind that you services are in good hands, that your service will operate as expected, and that your data will remain safe.

    Looks good dude! If I had a use for another VPS I would order. :P

  • ryanarpryanarp Member, Patron Provider

    Just to avoid confusion, this offer follows our new pro-rata billing. Orders after the 20th will include the following month. So the price you will be paying is pro-rated to the 1st if you order before the 20th. Hope that helps :)

  • jarjar Patron Provider, Top Host, Veteran

    Thanks guys! Maybe next time I'll throw in a free steak and you won't be able to resist ;)

  • pubcrawlerpubcrawler Banned

    Love the pro-rated billing. Makes for low cost trials too.

    BuyVM was the first provider I noticed with the partial month billing. Was great to pay $2 or less to get started .

  • ryanarpryanarp Member, Patron Provider

    Thanks @pubcrawler , we love the pro-rated billing as well :)

  • pubcrawlerpubcrawler Banned

    No @Simple3x, these are NOT on Colocrossing.

    They are out of Corexchange's facility in Dallas.

    Thanks Mitchell, we appreciate the positive feedback.

    @Simple3x said: Colocrossing?

    As @pubcrawler beat me to the response, we are in Corexchange in Dallas. :)

  • EpidriveEpidrive Member

    Do you guise have an offshore location? Or consider to open one?

  • jarjar Patron Provider, Top Host, Veteran

    @Simple3x said: Do you guise have an offshore location? Or consider to open one?

    At the moment there are no plans for it. When we grow a bit further I'd definitely like to consider it.

  • ryanarpryanarp Member, Patron Provider

    @skd2013 Awesome that is exactly what we like to hear.

  • jarjar Patron Provider, Top Host, Veteran

    Glad to hear it! If its not running equally as fast in six months, I give you permission to punch me :)

  • trippin7464trippin7464 Member

    Ordering Trenta now, no more of the deal, but with @jarland 's rep in this community I'll pay the higher price. Just have to get out of my current vps host...

  • ryanarpryanarp Member, Patron Provider

    @trippin7464 Your in good hands that is for sure. @jarland is a pure genius when it comes to node administration.
