View Full Version : How is webreseller/IPPRO
jolly 06-07-2001, 09:37 AM how is webreseller.net or ippro.com. Are they reseller of alabanza or they have there own NOC.
If they have there own NOC then why there own site is on ALABANZA.
I have come to know that there uptime is less than 95% is it true.
And they dont have round the clock support system.
They say that they have multiple T3 ,OC48 and DS3 but the sites take lot of time to open. My friend has PIII933 with 256MB server but on performance its equal to the cybercon PIII500 with 128 MB RAM.
Is webreseller or IPPRO is reliable host. Does anyone knows about them and idea?:) :cool: :D ;)
webreseller 09-07-2001, 01:06 PM I'm not sure if I'm violating any rules. If I am, let me know.

webreseller.net is no longer on Alabanza. When the company first started, it used Alabanza servers. Over time it created it's own NOC, but the site was never moved over. It is in the process of being moved over now.
No new accounts are setup with Alabanza.
I have come to know that there uptime is less than 95% is it true.
Since we've gone fully with Yipes, we have had almost now downtime. We have a 99.9999% uptime guarantee now. We were affected by the train wreck in Baltimore which knocked out our UUNet connection for almost an entire day. Because of that, we have taken steps to insure that something like that never happens again.
And they dont have round the clock support system.
There is phone support from 9am - 6pm EST. We have a web-based helpdesk system that pages a technician if there is an emergency. We guarantee 1 hour response to off-hours emergencies.
They say that they have multiple T3 ,OC48 and DS3 but the sites take lot of time to open. My friend has PIII933 with 256MB server but on performance its equal to the cybercon PIII500 with 128 MB RAM.
There are a lot of factors to speed. We haven't had any complaints about speed since we got the new connection.

But it seems (to me) that jolly is looking for input from current customers. :rolleyes:

Oh, I know, I just wanted to get any confusion out of the way!
When I had an account on IPPro/WebReseller, I had the worst support there was. Again, that's just my opinion and it was a while ago.
mrnet 09-07-2001, 07:21 PM Webreseller.net is a good company. I was reselling for them before I decided to get my own server. These guys were helpfull. I do not know about you but I was having round the clock support. The good thing about them is, when you call their office you talk to a support staff immediately. No waiting. I was really happy with them. The only reason I left them was, my clients have used to the Alabanza panel and at the time webreseller's dedicated servers were using ensim.
I will recommend their service anytime.
JBIZ718 09-07-2001, 07:31 PM Im not sure the understanding of your posts Jolly, most seem strange and out there....
We have been doing business with them for about 1.5 years now. We have special terms and I will not disclose them per arrangements I have.
From the facts:
They have a Yipes backbone. It is very solid.
Uptime is very solid. Support is very solid.
I dont think many can go wrong with them.
Jolly where do you see this post going, you are flaming this company right from the start. If your going to go there, please provide hard facts. If your friend was with them, they would know about there gb connection to Yipes. I am starting to question much of this post. Also there own site is traced to a Yipes connection.
Please I think this post should be shut down. Also Mods Because of my NDA I cant go into some facts, but Jolly is making non true aquisations, and because of my business relationship I can verify that there is no backup behind this...

Chicken 09-07-2001, 07:43 PM The only accusation he made is that they do not have 24/7 support and that uptime is less than 95%, both issues which were handled by webreseller. Post will not be shut down.
A faster server doesn't mean your site will load faster. Your site will also not (for sure) load faster if you are with a host that is connected to an OC12 over a host that is on an OC3.
JBIZ718 09-07-2001, 07:45 PM Chicken you suck as usual....
Its funny that his statements were made, but the valitidy is way off.
His comments about stuff are just not right.
I can prove that jolly is way off...
Joe
SoftWareRevue 09-07-2001, 07:51 PM I think jolly was just askin' about 'em :rolleyes:
webreseller was the one that dug up a three month old thread that noone else responded to.:eek2:
mrnet 09-07-2001, 08:00 PM I agree with JBIZ718.
I do not know where jolly read about them, but I was with webreseller. They are the best I have ever dealt with. Infact, I spoke recently with Robert about co-locating my server with them and just use Cpanel.
Why do you think I still want to get my server back to them?
Their uptime is good. My pages load faster on their server. Infact, I get compliments from my clients about how fast their pages load.
Like I stated earlier, I get round the clock support from them when I was with them. Plus you can always call them on the phone.
I will still recommend them to anyone.
Chicken 09-07-2001, 08:13 PM I didn't even notice that the original post by jolly was 3 months old. Seems webreseller handled it, I'm not sure what this is all about other than you having space there???
3 months ago, he wanted to know about them. I'm not even sure if he's considering them now, but 3 months ago uptime might not have been what it is today, support might have been more sluggish, and as I said, webreseller addressed the issues already.
If you want to prove that 3 months ago they offered 24/7 support and better than 95% uptime, well then I don't think anyone will mind. I get the feeling all of this was due to his friend's experiences anyhow...
This is how it looks to me: three months ago, jolly made a post asking about the company. Maybe the "accusations" made were true then, maybe not -- no way to tell now if they aren't even in the same data center.
Now, three months later, webreseller wants to make the point that they have moved and have changed some things. It'd be a clear violation of the rules to start a new thread saying those things, but by following up to a three month old post he says "I'm not sure if I'm violating any rules."
JBIZ718, I'd guess, didn't notice that the original post was three months old when he made his own accusations.
But as SWR pointed out, it was webreseller who chose to bring out the three-month old criticism of his company. Removing the thread, as Joe asked, would go against the obvious wishes of the company being discussed!
webreseller 09-07-2001, 09:21 PM The thread can be killed. I am a newbie. We just found out about this site. Of course I searched for "webreseller". I noticed that there was a thread with no response. I responded. I didn't realize the thread was so old.
For the record, we didn't have those problems three months ago either.
I appreciate your patience with me in this matter and I look forward to sharing information with the community.

JBIZ718 09-07-2001, 10:56 PM Cough Matt Cough
Give it up too the newbies, and welcom Matt

Matt, Why do you want to kill this thread? WHT is place where we discuss things about hosting.
Hey I have lots of info and questions for webreseller. Do you want me to flood this forum with that or would you like to discuss with me online on any chat program like ICQ,YAHOO or MSN.
Let me know your ID
:D :D :D :D
JBIZ718 09-08-2001, 02:39 PM I dont see your intensions at all on this post.
You have slammed other posts before.
If you want to discuss some things with Webreseller call them on the phone. They have a toll free number.
Your intensions on here are simply bad and have no justification other then too cause problems.
I think you need to review the rules of this forum and stop this attitude.
You are insulting me, and probably many others by this way of comunication.
This is not the place for Matt to answer support calls for you or answer questions. Its not that hard to send a email to Matt.
And also dont threaten a company:
"Hey I have lots of info and questions for webreseller. Do you want me to flood this forum with that or would you like to discuss with me online on any chat program like ICQ,YAHOO or MSN. " said by jolly...
This is just not right. Have some integrity.
Please straighten up
Joe
mrnet 09-08-2001, 03:39 PM ""Hey I have lots of info and questions for webreseller. Do you want me to flood this forum with that or would you like to discuss with me online on any chat program like ICQ,YAHOO or MSN. " said by jolly... "
Is this a blackmail? I wonder why the so-called moderators are allowing this kind of post on these forums. Most of us join these forums to exchange views with fellow users or get some info aboout hosting companies in a sincere way.
I am appealing to the moderators to restore this forum's integrity.
Jolly, if you have issues with webresellers, please call them on the phone or email them directly. We do not want to know about those issues if infact it is true. You are loosing your own integrity by postings like that.
Chicken 09-08-2001, 09:19 PM I love it... 'the so-called moderators...'
Well, this so-called moderator read his post as, "Do you want me to ask you these questions here, or contact you off forum?"
I don't see how discussing a host is blackmail, nor the attitude of some hosts here when a member asks a few questions about a host. Some statements made on the forum *may* not be true. We welcome and allow any and all clarifications of misinformation by the hosts themselves.
If you have a problem with a post, please report it to us via the 'report this post...' link. Commenting like this starts flame threads and I don't see why we need more of them.
Please discuss webreseller from now on...
JBIZ718 09-08-2001, 09:24 PM Once again Chicken you must be overlooking these posts, or still drunk from the RUM i sent you.
He states:
Hey I have lots of info and questions for webreseller. Do you want me to flood this forum with that or would you like to discuss with me online on any chat program like ICQ,YAHOO or MSN. " said by jolly...
Im not sure what you read, but I read "Do you want me to Flood this forum with that" as a pretty negative comment putting webreseller in a defensive position with no merit. This post is not discussing this company, rather Jolly coming after them. If Jolly has questions I think MAtt would have no problems answering these questions.
Chicken maybe Im wrong but that statement seems threating to me, but your the teacher.
Joe
Chicken 09-08-2001, 09:39 PM Yeah I know the part you and mrnet were looking at, but I didn't read it the same way. You guys are seeing it as threatening, let me rephrase how I read it...
"Do you want me to ask you a million questions here, or would you prefer if we discussed it off forum?"
SoftWareRevue 09-08-2001, 09:50 PM I have to agree with Chicken.
No offense; but some people are just not articulate.
And you have to try to understand what they want.
You can't just read their exact phrasing.
mrnet 09-09-2001, 03:43 AM JBIZ718, do not even waste your time with chicken and this post. It is cclear even to a lay man that jolly post is a kind of threaten. I have been reading this board for the past 12 months before I finally decided to join. I used to think chicken knows the ins and outs about web hosting. It seems now he is loosing it. I really will not waste my time with this post. I only thing I will say is ; chicken open your eyes and read to understand.
Enough with me of this good for nothing post.
Chicken 09-09-2001, 12:07 PM Mrnet, if you would like to continue insulting me on these forums, you will be banned from these forums. Just because you read it one way and I read it another doesn't mean that you are right. It doesn't mean that I am right either (notice, I didn't say either of you were wrong, just that I read it a different way).
It is unforunate that webresller cannot be discussed, and instead we have a page about the interpretation of a post made by someone.
