good offer.... ThePlanet rocks :)

Thanks, diederik. We lease quite a bit of space in The Planet's data center, and have been exceptionally happy with their performance. :)

Are you in their old or their new DC ?
By the way, which DSM version is included - might be good to add in your post ;)

No offense intended, but that looks like a huge markup over ordering directly from theplanet. What are you offering that justifies the markup?

http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=88169

For example, I could colo a 3u server for $150/month. Then I could purchase a server comparable to your specs. At your markup of $149/month, I could pay it off in 5 months or so. DSM would cost me about $20/month. So after I pay off the server, that's $129/month that I'm saving, which is about enough for another dedicated server somewhere else.

DSM Silver is included, which is $40 a month and includes all three layers of administration (Admin, Reseller and Client, not the $20 DSM Bronze). These aren't cheap servers, and we plan to increase the bandwidth to 400 GB soon. And that's ignoring taxes, staff and support. I think this is quite an attractive offer, and unless you go with Cogent or other cheaper bandwidth hard to beat. If you are more interested in co-location, we offer this at $34.95 for each 1U server, including power. :)

We also offer attractive upgrade options, and only charge $0.50 per IP address after the first 12, which are free.

Edit: Sorry completely forgot the previous question, we are based in their InfoMart facility. Please feel free to PM me if there is anything else.

Robin, if it can be done, how much would this setup cost with CPanel/WHM and how much would it cost to have it managed? Feel free to email me if you don't want to reply here :)

Chris, I don't mind replying here at all. There is no additional fee if you would like CPanel/WHM instead of DSM. Fully managed, the total price is $349.95 per month, again with no minimum contract setup or other fees.

It could still be set up today, as we have a few servers with RedHat 7.3 already pre-installed left for this offer.
