Search around the forums, I really have never used their service so I cannot comment much but I can tell you that there have been a # of negative posts about them recently.

Burst is as good and bad as any company on this forum... so if you like their plans etc. use them.

I have a reseller acount with Burst.

While their plans to resell are nicely priced, the reseller add-ons are somewhat outrageous. For instance, personal nameservers and Cpanel customization both have a setup fee AND a monthly fee. Not to mention the $70 fee to even become a reseller in the first place, you are looking at putting in good bit in startup compared to - for instance, MCHost, etc. They do offer other services which is nice (dialup, adult hosting, dom reg, etc).

I haven't used them in over a year, due to the dwindling support and their site (disorganized) pages that aren't finished (after 2 years or so?) - leaving you in wonderment as to if they really have those features yet. I like knowing that my host has a clear path to what they are presenting to their clients - that's mainly why Burst didn't work well for me.
