hm ... how can somebody complaint over UCG? At that price, UCG does not guarantee a smile on your face, don't you know that?
Come on ... for $49-$99/month server, it's just spare money. If you are seriouos about your business, you won't go there for sure
And yes, I do think they have several hundred servers ....Fluid Hosting, LLC - Enterprise Cloud Infrastructure: Cloud Shared and Reseller, Cloud VPS, and Cloud Hybrid Server

The review seems a bit incomplete if you do not provide details. Also, where is this quote from?

I have a couple of their 199/mo Corporate servers and have absolutely no complaints. Only problem was once they reset my root password for no reason a few hours after I received my server and changed the pw. Didn't give any explanation, just told me they reset it.

I had the worst experience with UCG! EVER! And I have been doing dedicated server hosting for over 4 years now in which I have dealt with 30+ companies.

Let me guess... this is the first time you've paid 49 dollars for a server right?
A certain level of expectation comes with each level and cost of a server, its ironic to see so many complain about what they know is an inexpensive product. I've got a server with ucg as well, I don't monitor it and I don't complain when it goes down, because its what it is, a cheap play server.KnownHost Managed Services Specialists

The only download service enabled on my servers is FTP (servers run game servers). If you're still interested in a test, ICQ me at 20503340.

Hostingsp if you're concerned about speeds feel free to check out my MRTG graph above. You can see that I was able to sustain a 6mbit FXP over to a RackShack server.

Abaddon, that comment can so easily be turned around.
You shouldn't buy something that you know can't be maintained forever. If you do at least don't use it for business.

Actually $99 a month, and if you compare them to say rackshack.net then UCG is really bad.

Rackshack also has poured countless millions from ev1 into their product.. even then their support is lacking at best, it took them what 3 or 4,000 servers just to break even on their biz plan? Still probabbly doesn't make them much at all.

My experience of United.Colo has been pretty good so far. Something went wrong with my server today and to top that off someone was trying to steal my main IP. UCG support found the culprit and stopped his/her server and rebooted mine for me within 15 minutes of my first email, with 4/5 emails in-between to let me know what was going on.
Pretty good service for the price IMO. I know others will have bad experiences, but I thought it would be nice for people to hear about a good one for once

My responses via e-mail from UCG are usually less than30 minutes even in the middle of the night...while I have trouble tickets from RackShack that've been open for over a week.

While I do hate them, I will give them this. Support responds to emails in a relatively fast amount of time. Too bad they don’t ever send me notices though like when they were DOSed, switched from 100Mbit to 10Mbit, etc. though.

RS does make mistakes too..don't count the mistakes as points count less mistakes better
