I am interested in knowing who here has experience as a customer with Focal Hosting, as a dedicated server or colocation customer. Thanks to those in advance.

MotleyFool 02-01-2002, 06:02 AM Hi Fiber, I have ordered a server with focal and I am waiting for it to be out of the test burning and installation and online in a week [the delay is from me -I am yet to fax a contract to them! :)] I would recommend them for 3 reasons 1] they have few servers , so you are certain to get get personal attn 2] Alex Llera [allera here] is a very competent person and has given me a lot of free lessons on Unix, Apache security and djbdns and stuff like that [even before I ordered the server] - service is top notch to say the least 3] they will customize everything for you I am paying 60$ set up and 130$/mo and a 12 month contract for a PIII 800, 256 MB RAM, 40GB IDE with 35GB of actual traffic. The way I see it, I pay 40$ for the box, 30$ for the bandwidth and 60$ for the support - it's important to me because although I am quite knowledgible this is my first server Hope it helps Cheers Balaji allera 02-01-2002, 09:56 AM Originally posted by MotleyFool I am paying 60$ set up and 130$/mo and a 12 month contract for a PIII 800, 256 MB RAM, 40GB IDE with 35GB of actual traffic.

Current prices are not introductory and are higher. Mods: I post this to attempt to prevent users from contacting us, getting a higher quote, and referring us back to this thread.

I too have heard good experiences with Focal Hosting and wished to verify and get more about them. The deal you seem to have gotten seems to be very good, and I kick myself all the more - but I am quite positive that it is Focal Hosting I will be going with; on atleast a 12-month contract. From my perspective they are a great company, with excellent service and great pricing. Not to expensive, but not too cheap. Thank you. |
