Just wondered if anyone had opinion on server4you? They seem to be priced very well for vps plans but also seems too cheap and wondered if legit. They advertise on WHT, any help appreciated.

Also they use **** control panel, anyone have any experience with it?

Forgot to mention I was kind of leary that they offer "unlimited space" on the premium account for only $25 a month?

Unlimited space does not exist. :D Same principle as http://www.unlimband.com.

I'm sorry but what control panel do they use? Apparently it's banned from WHT. Is it H E L M ?

Thanks for the reply. I am leary about the plan myself and wanted to see if anyone else had experience with them. The control panel is H S P C, I did not see it was banned. Any info on it?

They're a division of SERVER4FRE, a very large European Web hosting firm.

Well the control panel you are talking about isn't on their site, they use Plesk 6 or Ensim Pro and that is what it says on their site. Not sure what the other control panel is you are talking about though, just the letters don't mean much.

Tread carefully.

Server4You was on the original list of companies "recommended" by FeaturePrice when Travis posted his first rant. They might be wonderful, but I'd be personally leery of anything Travis Johnson recommends.

Until about the middle of May, they weren't even accepting new accounts - they had only a form for "FeaturePrice Refugees" set up. Querants received the following e-mail in April:

I'm not sure where I did see it, either on this forum, or on YHS, but Server4You was trying to buy FeaturePrice, did their due diligence, and left the town. Looks like they have made a wise decision.

interesting, fdcservers.com points to their site...

I also have some concerns....... see my related thread:
