Hello , folks


I am looking for a host of course and I am liking http://www.phantasyworkshosting.com , I did a search and found some feedback and was wondering if anyone had some recent feedback on them on how the service and tech support is ?

I am not looking for a cheap host , but they seem to have wide variety of hosting plans for affordable pricing. I noticed they give you alot of features for the money , well I think so anyways.

Appreciate any feedback on this hosting company:)

While I can't say that I have used them. They have a very good reputation around here and I can't recall ever hearing anything bad about them.

Thanks for the kind comments , dandanfirema :D

Hi,

I used them for 2 days, I decided to cancel my account for the fact they use zend optimzer instead of php-accelerator. Zend optimizer seems to be a bad choice for use with Vbulletin boards.

But I had the chance to check out their service, and I think it is a quality host as far as I can say. Fast service, fast servers and connection (located at NAC).

Canceling my account was no problem @ all, 30 mins after sending an email my account got canceld and a refund was done.

So if u don't run vbulletin I think this host is really good.

We have had very good luck with Vbulletin and zend , and will further investigate the use of php-accelerator in the coming days and may install it if we could get user feedback that it defintely is better choice over zend. I tend to believe user feddback over what a developer says , it like buying anthing you want user feedback. Thanks for giving us a try though :)

I have to say that PHP accelerator has been amazing. I had a customer launch a site today completely over whelming their dedicated server. I saw loads over 150. Here is a graph of system load. Notice the sharp drop in load at 11:00. That is about the time we installed PHPA.

thanks for the feddback there dandanfirema , any idea where I can find this , I would love to install it and try , just curious if it would cause confilct sense we have zend installed already.


Thank Doulgas

It will NOT work with Zend.

The developer is a great guy and is very accessible for support if there is a problem. Let me know if you need some help with it, as I have had him assist me with a detailed configuration and will be happy to share with you what I have.

Alright thanks , Douglas

Hi,

PHP Accelerator basicly does what Zend Accelerator does, only its free. Zend Optimizer only works with optimized scripts, normal scripts sometimes take even longer to load.

As far as I know there isn't any connection between the makers of PHP Accelerator and Vbulletin... :)

U can do a search @ the vbulletin supportforums if u want more usertests.

Ciao,
