Earlier I had posted for a good dedicated server for $1400 a year. I got many many many many many offers. And all of them were great. But after some research and stuff I narrowed to the to best which exactly provide what I need.

These 2 were ******* and MultipleImage.
I had made up mind about *******. But then yesterday Timothy of MuultipleImage offered me a very tempting offer.

Then I was dead confused. So this post.

I ask for more of expereince with these guys, how fast and good is their technical support and reaction to our questions.

I'm scared to go with ******* a bit cause they are new according to some threads in here.

Any ideas?

Hey, doesn't new=better?

Like when I go to the store, I want the new stuff, not the old stuff. :)

Yeah. Just like you want to put your money in the new bank, not the old bank. Just like you want to learn from the new teacher, not the old teacher. Just like you want to go to the new auto shop, not the old one that you trust.

Both of these companies are really good from what I have seen and heard.

I can't comment on *******, but we picked up a box from MultipleImage and it was delivered on time and as specified. Tim has a helpful team of support staff, and we'll certainly look at their offers next time around.

Cheers

I also have a server with multipleimage, and they have been great. The setup was fast(in fact, it was one day early). Tim was very helpful and patient. And the uptime has been great.

They also have very good tech support, average response time is just a few hours, even on holiday. And they also were very patient to a linux newbie like me.

I would definitly recommend them.

You're confusing me guys. From all the votes I got, MultipleImage seems to be winning pretty good. BUt from the reviews seems ******* is pretty good too.

Hello,

call both companies and see who actually picks up!

A while back (about 2 months ago) I was looking for a dedicated server and called the ******* number and got an answering machine at 5pm.

I went with another company.

Things might have changed by now

later
