LimeStoneNetworks Review (6 months)
I have used limestonenetworks from Nov 2008 - May 2009.
Everything about LimeStoneNetworks is FANTASTIC.
Honestly, I cannot even speak of anything horrible that has happened to me with them.
Here are some details:
-Amazing ticket response time. Except an answer within less than 30 min - 1 hour. In fact, one of my ticket was answered within a minute.
-Sales are CRAZY! Go look at their sales right now! http://www.limestonenetworks.com/landing/jun_08/ A freaking core2quad / 4gb for just $123.74. They even give you free Windows license with that!
-Fast OS Reloads. Took them only 35 minutes (yes I even kept track of it). Better yet, they give free (1) OS reload every month. Most other companies charges you for reloads such as Hivelocity who charges $65.
-Nice control panel. I love the bandwidth graphs and the remote reboot. Remote reboot was so useful when my RDC was all frozen up. Remote reboot took about 1-2 min for my server to come back up.
-Never had a single downtime! Yup, it was all 100% when I was with LimeStoneNetworks for 6 months.
Simple. Solid. Superior is EXACTLY what LimeStoneNetworks is.
You won't regret ever using them.
Now, your probably wondering why I am not using them as of today.
Over the 6 months, my gaming server has increased by a lot. Bandwidth charts were going up and were almost about to reach 2000gb. Upgrading bandwidth at LSN is very pricy so I had to move to another dedicated server provider.
LimeStoneNetworks = 10 / 10 (hands down no questions asked)

Thanks for the kind words, and stellar review. Sorry to see you leave OP! Congratulations on the new host, and the increased business! We all wish for your great success in these times! On that note, I did want to state that bandwidth allotments have been increased on several lines by about 450% as of today.
Watch out here we come!

Great review, I had a server with them for 3 month.
It was my friend's server by the way, but I had it under control, he is right, network speed, uptime, hardware quality, and control panel are the most advantages of LSN.
I even had tested the HDD life (evil me) and it was almost brand new when they gave it to us only 215 hours of working which means nothing in HDD life time, haha !!
Im gonna buy my server from them, since I need something special to do with it and I need such quality
Cheers.

BTW, LSN now has a server with 9000GB of bandwidth for $199, perhaps you could fit into that one as well.

Yup! I bought that new server with 9 terabytes of bandwidth! The bandwidth is fast and premium - with intel core2quad 3GHz, plus I got a 10% discount.
Limestone is really helpful and polite! (Thanks Machen for hooking me up with that server and all the other limestone staff for their great effort!)
I am also another satisfied Limestone customer.

I switched to LimeStone Networks in 2008 - when they were running big sales. I switched because for the price they offered me, I was able to combine two of my dedicated servers into one (extra memory and CPU power), I don't use much bandwidth. This reduced my time spent on managing my servers (less number of servers).
Only concerns I had when I joined were:
1. They did not accept Amex at that time (don't know if they do it now, but I used amex through paypal, and its working fine).
2. I always got only two reps, Ryan & Mike, every time I tried to contact them in initial 2 months. Day or Night, Mike or Ryan were there. That made me a little nervous about number of support reps they have. But since they were always there when I needed, and since the feedback on this forum was good, I accepted that fact.
So far, (almost a year), no issues. I just log back in here every few months to make sure there are still "no issues" with my hosting provider

I took advantage of LSN's specials and took 2 servers with 10TB bandwidth to replace my old 2 servers with LSN. Those servers are fantastic. I can't stretch enough about LSN dedication to their customers. They are top notch. I have been with LSN for little over 7 months and I'm extremely satisfied as you can probably tell

hmm im having some concerns with them right now.
i ordered the 10tb special yesterday (friday) and they asked me for verification so i gladly did both of their 2 options. ticket #27889. 1 is verify authorization charges and 2 is to upload documents to prove that im not a fraud. i already did both of them and its been 24 hours and i have not received any response from the sales team. it seems there sales team does not work on the weekends? because there live chat hours says Monday through Friday 6am CDT - 10pm CDT. i really want my server provisioned to me asap.
