    I have been using KillerOffer for more than half a year. The windows system has always been very stable. During the remote operation, I didn't find any cpu anomalies. Perhaps it's because I haven't specifically tested it, but on a server that costs 3.6 euros per month, with 4h8g100g, Even if it explodes, I'd still praise it for being so loud.

    Little update:

    Backups. now it's possible to select the retention time and frequency of the automatic backups.

    Console. Now all power actions of the servers has a better feedback with the actual real-time status of the server.

    Billing. We have improved the billing tab to make it more user friendly and to allow navigating previous billing periods.

    Hey LET,

    We've just opened our newest location: Birmingham, UK. Same setup as our other regions, now in the heart of the UK for lower latency to UK/EU users (and a clean option if you need UK data residency).

    What you get in Birmingham:

    • AMD EPYC 7642
    • Enterprise NVMe storage
    • 10 Gbps network on every VM
    • DDoS protection included
    • Hourly billing, so spin up and tear down whenever
    • Crypto accepted

    Pricing starts at €3.60/mo for 1 vCPU / 3 GB RAM / 20 GB NVMe. Full plans here: https://cloudblast.io/pricing

    Deploy from the console right now: https://cloudblast.io

    Happy to answer questions in the thread, and if you run a bench, post your results 👇

    We have 0% CPU steal on all our nodes and locations. The only node with a very limited CPU steal is the only old NL node, which uses the EPYC 7551p, not much we can do about it, planning a replacement/upgrade of the node but will take time sadly.

    On your hourly servers, is there any way we can shut down instead of turn down and pay only for storage? That would quite fit a use case I have

    Shutting down a VM do not make you pay less, but on VM's you can create a backup, and restore it into a VM only when you need. Keeping a backup most of the times costs just few cents per month.

    On the other hand, for Workers if you shut down a worker you do pay only the storage. (CPU Hours, RAM Hours and Bandwidth are not charged).

    WTF? What’s wrong with my server? High steal time—reaching as much as 50–60%! Download speeds from neighboring providers in Amsterdam are 50 Mbps.

    Is 10 euros for a new account a REQUIRED condition?

    I'm planning to open an account and try an HKG server today.

    Thanks!

  • cloudblastcloudblast Member, Patron Provider

    @nghialele said: Is 10 euros for a new account a REQUIRED condition?

    Yep, it's a new accounts requirements, after the first 10 eur deposit you can deposit as low as 1 eur and keep using the hourly billing as you wish.

    Bandwidth in our NL locations shouldn't be that bad, and you should test using iperf3.
    But if you really need some premium CPU performances I can get you migrated to our UK node with basically equivalent ping.

    Hi there,

we're writing to share an important change to the way we bill bandwidth.


With immediate effect, included bandwidth for servers in US, UK and NL will be set to:

5TB per month for VMA31 and cheaper plans
10TB per month for VMA41 and higher plans


Your included bandwidth is accrued hourly on each server and pooled into a single account limit.

Included bandwidth is IN + OUT combined and any usage beyond your pooled allowance at the end of the month will be billed at €1.50 per TB.



Why are we making this change?

When we launched unlimited bandwidth, it allowed us to keep pricing simple. As we've grown, a small number of users pushing 100TB+ 24/7 has started to affect network quality for everyone else and makes it hard for us to keep our pricing and premium network sustainable.

To keep our network fast and our pricing affordable, we need to move to a fair-use model.

    Yeah, got this mail also, even though I don't have a VPS with them for over 2 years.

    You know, in the period of the

    VMA11
    10 Gbps @ 10TB

    VMA21
    10 Gbps @ 10TB

    And now they are changing their rules - but hey, they still consider themselves the most honest provider out there.

    Why are we making this change?

    When we launched unlimited bandwidth, it allowed us to keep pricing simple.

    And you could very well know that misuse would take place

    As we've grown, a small number of users pushing 100TB+ 24/7

    Like I said. But hey, let's just limit everyone instead of those few. And even better: make the limit lower as what was originally promised!

    To keep our network fast and our pricing affordable, we need to move to a fair-use model.

    No, this is not a fair use model. This is just basic limits. Nothing wrong with that - as long as you deliver what has been promised. And I know from experience that is a bit of an issue with this provider.

    If I was still a user, I'd understand the measure. However, if you put these limits in place, you should also give users a chance to stop using the service and give them the remainder of their money back. And that's when CloudBlast shines: in best case they'll do that back to the original deposit and you can't get your money back if you're done with the practices...

    I'm glad I'm not a customer of them anymore. And if they react "well, why do you react then?": it's simple: because you send me mail I've not asked for (and I've "unsubscribed" several times already).

    Use, not misuse. 100TB is only 0% of unlimited, I checked the math.

    Skill issue on the provider's end.

    @Obelous said: Use, not misuse. 100TB is only 0% of unlimited, I checked the math.

    It's a shared environment, words spreaded fast and people started pushing 5 times that on 3,6 EUR VPS's.

    Clearly that's not sustainable.

    That's why we are moving back to the limited port (like we had in the past).
    It's pooled traffic anyway, so if you hold multiple resources with us it's not a big issue.

    Funny, you react on a reaction of mine in which I point out to you that you clearly are not "returning to previous limits" but are lowering them, but don't react to my points.

    Anyway, you yourself promoted the "unlimited data" here on LET, responding to requests of users asking for such a VPS. Wh y would someone ask for unlimited when he'd have enough on 5 TByte? Offering "unlimited" will attrackt people trying to use networks to the full - and even complain when they can't. Everyone with even a slight idea of this world can tell you that.

    You've made a few mistakes; first with starting the "unlimited", then by going back to limits lower as before the "unlimited" (and those were communicated in the offers back then), and now with an instant start of enforcing "the new reality", basically (with a 1,50/TB surcharge) putting them into costs before they even could realize that they'd be in trouble.

    10Tb is little. I think 25Tb is enough for most user.

    Why not keep it FUP? Then you can throttle the few players that are pushing 100 TB/month if they begin to interfere with other users. The new limits are really strict, especially in the UK. :(

    I run Tor relays, which means any traffic that goes through is doubled (in+out). Depending on location, relays can use substantial traffic. They can be throttled, of course, but without throttling they'll often use as much as the CPU and port can handle. My fastest relay uses about 150 TB/month, although it's an outlier. Most use 5-20.

    Bandwidth in the UK is not always the cheapest unless you can get the right deal with a provider.
