    Can you tell me what happened with ticket # 9216778

    Brand new service. First time customer.

    Requested a simple [full] "cPanel reseller to reseller migration" in subject. In the WHM login you have the transfer tool disabled for resellers.

    Oct 28, 2026 2:25:09 AM Service Ordered (it took some time for service to show up as active)
    Oct 28, 2026 3:21:42 AM Ticket Opened
    Oct 28 2026 11:36 PM HostBrr Replied [8 hours later]
    Oct 29 2026 2:26 AM customer Replied [3 hours later]

    Oct 30 2026 9:20 AM still no update [31 hours later]

    One account wasn't migrated because you asked on your 11:36PM reply whether I wanted to overwrite an account on a brand new server (of course...it was a new server and asking for a full reseller migration). I responded within a few hours of being asked. And the ticket wasn't handled in what looks like 30+ hours later and still counting.

    Updated timeline:

    Oct 31 2026 12:18 PM customer Replied asking for follow-up [72 hours later]

    Nov 1 2026 12:54 AM HostBrr Finally replied. "Sorry for the delay". [84 hours later]

    @labze this is ridiculous. 3.5 days to respond to a ticket with a new customer with a simple request 👎👎

    We use cPanels built in transfer tool for cPanel -> cPanel migration. If a migration completes without errors we can only assume that it worked as intended.

    Have you checked if there actually was a error? Quotas do not necessarily update instantly and it may simply be that it still shows usage from before migration.

    I am not sure what you expect a diff to tell you?

    I am sure there are many ways to ensure that transfers are successful but that would probably also require manual work.

    The overall numbers seem low but it may be the system catching up after resolving the issue.

    4K values are likely realistic. IOPS is intentionally limited on this. There is a big disclaimer on the post itself that should set some expectations.

    The majority of users use this for media streaming, backups and other types of bulk storage. This should work great.

    Then we've had some clients trying to run HDD crypto mining, S3 and databases off this storage. It likely worked fine prior to us enforcing limits but problem is a single server using the disk for such purpose can entirely starve the HDD array for IOPS causing a degradation for everyone else.

    So it is quite intentional that 4K numbers are as they are. They still are on-par with what a single dedicated HDD can do and its strict enough that a single client cannot ruin the performance for everyone else.

    We use cPanels built in transfer tool for cPanel -> cPanel migration. If a migration completes without errors we can only assume that it worked as intended.

    Have you checked if there actually was a error? Quotas do not necessarily update instantly and it may simply be that it still shows usage from before migration.

    I am posting publicly in here because YOU ARE NOT RESPONDING VIA YOUR PRIMARY CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION. You do understand that, right?

    I waited 84 hours wait time to get a response on a simple ticket. It is expected that if you haven't responded in that long of a time someone is going to try to reach out another way like the forum they found you on. You already said you don't check PMs.

    I can't believe those values are normal... @labze ?

    The overall numbers seem low but it may be the system catching up after resolving the issue.

    4K values are likely realistic. IOPS is intentionally limited on this. There is a big disclaimer on the post itself that should set some expectations.

    The majority of users use this for media streaming, backups and other types of bulk storage. This should work great.

    Then we've had some clients trying to run HDD crypto mining, S3 and databases off this storage. It likely worked fine prior to us enforcing limits but problem is a single server using the disk for such purpose can entirely starve the HDD array for IOPS causing a degradation for everyone else.

    So it is quite intentional that 4K numbers are as they are. They still are on-par with what a single dedicated HDD can do and its strict enough that a single client cannot ruin the performance for everyone else.

    Nobody is asking for NVME speeds from a block storage. And even with node level IOPS limits, throughput is inconsistent even for large block sizes.
    I don't know what to say, it's been hours and even the 512k and 1m throughput are not improving:

  • I don't know if this thread is the right place to leave a review, and I apologize if it isn't.

    I've been a customer of HostBrrr for almost a year now, and I'm very happy with their services and support (both technical and billing).

    Thanks to labze and his team! ;)

    Cheers, guys!
    Keep up the good work! 🔥🔥

    You can always make your own thread in the Reviews category~ and clarify if it's the server or web hosting service.

    indeed Hostbrr is one of the best providers on LE.
    Just they need to add more support staff so we don't need to DM/ping them here.

    I think its a one man business. That's the reason for such low prices. He does an excellent job through.

    yeah. Labze/Phillip is the sole owner. but i think he has one additional support person who replied here on LET few month ago. My tickets are always addressed by Labze the owner himself.

    Agree he does an excellent job. But growing business need a helping-hand too. Now BlackFriday will see boom in new orders/support tickets on most LET providers here. Good to have someone to address tickets. A peson needs 8-9 hours sleep and personal time too. So its hosting biz or any other digital one an owner does someone to help the clients.

    I don't think so, I have seen a couple of different names in the Support....although you can't be 100% it's not the same person with a diff user...

    Yeah that's what I've seen in the support ticket system too.

    Oh I wasn't sure it was really him~. After a search I can see he's from Denmark: I didn't know!

    It's a pity he doesn't reply to DMs...
