    What hardware exactly do you need so we can help you making the right choice?

    Also where do you want your dedicated server, USA / Europe? Any specific place?

    One of our nodes was rebooted this afternoon. WHT is not our support desk. Please check our updates blog for information on any reboots, outages or maintenance.

    No offense, but how is he using WHT as a helpdesk? He's only asking for alternatives to a host, hes not trying to ask for assistance from your team.

    I said that because he asked why his server was down for 30 minutes. He would've found the reason why much more quickly from our helpdesk.

    Couldn't agree more. Our overall uptime rating is above that of 99.99% across out network. You're simply not going to find that with many/any other hosts in our price range.

    Good luck, however

    That's actually quite a bit of ram and diskspace for one website. Are you sure you even need that much?

    Also, they are either overselling or using some beat-up outdated hardware to give you that much ram/space for that price (might be the reason you are experiencing so many problems). Thats just speculation on my part of course.

    I'm sorry, but Dual Xeon 5620 servers with 48GB Ram and Quad drives in Raid 10 is NOT "old beat up hardware".

    We utilize Softlayer as our provider, and we only select the best hardware for our clients.

    His "outage" was a server reboot to update the kernel, nothing more, nothing less.

    I couldn't agree less. Your vps packages are comparable to other known providers that I know of.

    Hmm.. that's interesting. I'm curious to know how you manage to make any money offering those types of specs at that price with that type of hardware? I mean at the very minimum if you are leasing that server from soft-layer its going to run you a minimum of 1k per month. If you are not overselling then the max amount of VPS clients you could put on one machine (for level 4 is 8?). Which only equals about $400.00 per month in revenue? Am I missing something here?

    That hardware costs us significantly less than $1000/month at Softlayer

    Really? How many servers do you have with them? are you leasing or co-locating?

    Sign an NDA and we'll talk internal details about our company.

    We lease, we don't do co-location. We're strictly Softlayer: We don't deal with the old The Planet side of things at all, nor have we ever.

    We're in the midst of starting up a competitor to a very, very large Softlayer reseller with all pricing approval on our account coming straight from Lance himself. Past that, I legally can't say much more unless you're an employee under NDA due to our contractual agreements with Softlayer.

    I find that somewhat hard to believe considering HG (who is softlayers#1 client), doesn't even get that kind of discounting on that type of hardware. Either way, I'll just go ahead and leave it at that

    PS. I also have servers with softlayer, so I am very familiar with their pricing structure and how they operate.

    Don't say that if you've never used them.

    Because I've been with them for a small time and its all went good from speed-support.

    please please guys don't post like such a things you never have tried.

    I am still with them and I ll monitor the performance for few days or a month before leaving, I have no issue to raise little budget but downtime is totally unacceptable for me. I am very happy with their price, and hope they ll perform good for long term customer relationship.

    Wish me luck guys )

    Did they let you know they would be rebooting the node you are in? Just asking as I too wouldn't be happy at all if I find my vps being down due to a system upgrade.. unless there was an scheduled maintenance reboot notice of course, so that way i'm prepared and can make plans like letting my clients know and be ready for it as well.
