(First: I have heard a lot of good reviews about weinbar. I sent a query more than 24 hours ago. So far... nuttin.)

I wonder.... Oh well they lost a client with several servers to transfer (me)

anywhoo..

After months of searching these are my final contenders for a reseller account:

JaguarPC.com
Wizardshosting.com
VenturesOnline.com (VDI is a big issue with this one...{for me})

Anyone with suggestions to help me choose? I am lost... they all seem equally good.

help. (!!!!)

(BTW, I am moving servers from the dark side... (starts with an A, ends with a T. You just have to eye it out ;)).

Not to burst your bubble but all three of those are in VDI right now, Jaguar is moving out not sure if they did yet or if they can setup accounts with cpanel not in VDI yet. But
site5.com
weinbar.com

are the two that I know are doing stable non-VDI shared cpanel hosting.

I have first hand experience with both JaguarPC and VO. Both of these companies are great.

I hosted my personal sites with JagPC until I starting reselling. They are the best as far as support and their prices are competitive. I completely recommend them.

I am now a VO reseller. They are also wonderful. I chose VO to resell with because of their prices and the use of the Webhost Manager control panel. Their service has been as good as JagPC's.

You can't go wrong with either of these.

Good Luck!

Though these companies are good listed above, I dont like Cpanel so would never use any of them.

Most of these Companies use Cpanel, which make me never want to use them.

I know that Jag is moving its servers to FL, with dialtone. Good Choice, IMHO (and that is why Jag is on top of mah list). Carlos said he is also moving to FL to a good NOC there (no details here). VO seems to be kinda dangling.. p'raps waiting for VDI to get their act together....

I am completely lost between these 3. I am leaning towards Jag for for their extended bandwidth... but WH has more flexibility when it comes to MySQL etc....

HELP! PUHLEEZE!!!!!!!

I am runnig around in circles here...

serious... I need help to decide between these 3.

if you draw a circle on paper right now (use 2b) you would prolly see me runnig around... (if you look close enough.. say with an electron microscope)

I forgot to mention before.. VO is still very much alive on my list... but I do not trust VDI.. hmm...

Well I am cool with Carlos so go with wizards, its really not that hard to figure this out.

Pick one, if you dont like them, then switch.

AniG .... all of them are Vdi based. Another thing is that you caught weinbar at the wrong time. Give them a email now or even add them to your ICQ. Their speed is great. :)

Sorry, we not VDI based. We do still have servers there but the accounts are being moved as we speak to our servers at DI. Please forgive me, I hate to post on a thread where someone is asking about who to choose but I wanted to clear the issue about being VDI based.

Yep. Jag is no longer VDI based.

Originally posted by Jag the accounts are being moved as we speak to our servers at DIWhy does http://www.dedicatedspace.com/ say "under construction"? Does Jag still provide dedicated servers?

Jag

Yes, we simply did not want to advertise dedicated servers while we are moving our clients so the site opening is delayed until after the move to DI is 100% complete.

If it's any help at all, I've just gone through a similar decision in the following two threads:
this (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=8340) and this (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=9649).

While I ultimately went with a different host than any of the three you have listed, I would say that my runner up choice, WizardsHosting, is an excellent host for almost anyone. Carlos is a dedicated man and he and his staff are always ready and willing to help. Their price/services ratio is very high and their knowledge and courteous support is top notch.

Hope I've helped and good luck.:D

I haven't used Wizards, but i've been with Jaguar for a while and i've definately been more than happy with them. It does seem though that most of the regulars here are the real-deal, down to earth hosts and you probably can't go wrong with whatever your choice is.:)
