Notes
- No warez/pornography/torrent/spam etc... allowed. You're welcome to run a personal VPN, but we take abuse reports very seriously.
- IPv6 is currently available in London, we're working real hard to bring it to New York.
- There will be OS ISO's to use aside from the SolusVM KVM Templates available. Users who need a certain ISO made available can request it.
How do you guys feel about the plans and pricing?
Thanked by 1Lee

Personally I would like to see each plan come with a /64 for IPv6 and not 1,2,4 or 8 v6 addresses stepped up with the plans.
@kcaj: Noted. While this may not be possible during launch, we'll definitely see what can be done.
Thank you very much for the suggestion.
What locations are you offering this, I see you state London and New York is it both?
@W1V_Lee: Those offers are in Buffalo, New York and Maidenhead, England. If things go well, we'll offer the product in more locations.
Nice, good offer.
Thank you, kind sir :-) Hopefully you may find interest in giving it a shot with a free trial.
Would you be interested in trying out the service if it came with a /64 IPv6?
are you going to offer the premium Buffalo ddos protection?
Regarding Buffalo: Basic DDoS Protection (Nullroute) is the default. The Riorey-based Premium DDoS Protection is something that will be announced soon.
Port speed is 1 Gbps?
Is there any discount on semi/annually payment?
How about more low end plans?
I would certainly try London, no need for free trial though happy to pay when I at least know who the provider is.
Yes, the port speed is 1 Gbps all the way.
With the official release, each 6 months get 1 month free. In regards to lower plans, it really depends. Could you tell me what exactly are you looking for?
Happy to hear :-)
For the U.K Location, we colocate with RapidSwitch in their Maidenhead Datacenter.
Colocation at RS is preferable to buying from them though
We started out by buying a small server to test how things are, then we started colocating :-) Honestly, the RS team is very courteous and rather competent. We plan moving forward with running our own BGP with them in 2015.
Would you like me to PM you a sign-up link in case you are interested in giving this a shot?
Sure.
No, I really don't need anything else at the moment. I was purely providing some feedback that I think would have interested any potential customers looking at your service.
Done :-)
Understood. I greatly appreciate your feedback and we will be bringing the /64 assignments in the U.K hopefully by the end of January.
Mandatory:
FYI: We should be able to do the /64's per VM either by the end of this week or by next week in the U.K Location
Update
Full /64 Subnets are now available in the U.K :-)
Sorry, I made a typo. It's "now" available, not "not".
Not or now? O.o
This is why I should drink coffee before posting. It is "now" available in the U.K :-)
I have need of reliable low spec EU KVM from time to time. So DF-512 if not IDF-256 is implied.
The lowest plan we offer at this time is the DF-768 :-)
When I'll be able to sign-up?
Any link?
May I PM you the link?
yeah
Done as requested
