What is better ?
http://www.olm.net or http://www.skynetweb.com
Considering:

1) Control panel (better Skynet)
2) Costs of hardware upgrade (better Olm)
3) Support (better olm)

Skynetweb is also good because bandwidth is charge at 3$/gb/mo no penality
Olm 100$ 25Gb don't know penality
price.


Thanks

This is a table of price.
Considering that skynet not have penality on data over

Comparison are made on first and last plan same between olm/sky

--------------------------------------------------------

Differents bettween OLM WS1 and Sky same hardware (considering 125 ip)


server tranfer/(single ip tranfer ) /Server Cost + tranfer
50Gb 500Mb 500 olm
50Gb 500Mb 485 sky

125Gb 1GB 500+300 = 800 olm
125Gb 1GB 485+225 = 710 sky

250Gb 2GB 500+800 = 1300 olm
250Gb 2GB 485+600 = 1085 sky

500Gb 4GB 500+1800 = 2300 olm
500Gb 4Gb 485+1350 = 1835 sky

---------------------------------------------------------
Differents between OLM WSE4 and sky same hardware (considering 500 ip)


server tranfer/ single ip tranfer / Server Cost + tranfer

250Gb 500Mb 1395 olm
250Gb 500Mb 1500+600 = 2100 sky

500Gb 1GB 1395+1000 = 2395 olm
500Gb 1Gb 1500+1350 = 2850 sky

1000Gb 2Gb 1395+3000 = 3395 olm
1000Gb 2Gb 1500+2850 = 4350 sky

2000Gb 4Gb 1395+7000 = 8395 olm
2000Gb 4Gb 1500+5850 = 7350 sky


---------------------------------------------------------

Olm is better if the site not doing big amount of data tranfer ( about 1 Gb) but if they doing more then 2Gb each sky is better.
Sky permit to do good plan for customer with less costs risk
but if the server not do this amount of tranfer olm is better.

What is the statistic of a sigle domain tranfer/mount ?
1 Gb or more?

What you prefer?

Thanks

Hello!

I had a dedicated server with skynetweb.
The setup was ok, sometimes the support was good, but othertimes you didnīt get an answer in weeks or months.
Right now Iīm still waiting for an answer, because there was an exploit in the BIND of my server and they just disconnected my server without ANY warning, I lost a lot of my customers and most of my visitors. After sending quiet a lot of emails they responded and reinstalled redhat. I needed all my files really bad, that was the main reason why I needed my server reconnected. On questions on whether
they can send me the $20 worth 6gig hard drive, make a cd copy or similar they havenīt responded. A few hours after theyīve reinstalled the system, they disconnected my server again, because I said in an email Iīve sent a month ago, that I want to cancel the contract, but the server was down one week and after sending so much emails they reinstalled the system, only because I wanted my files. I emailed the billing support, but they havenīt responded until today. All that was about 1-2 weeks ago. I think I will have to forget all my files and just go on.

Simon.
