KickAssVPS.com 1 Year Review
I have now been using KickAssVPS for a year now and all I can say is it they have been the best hosting experience that I have received from any where.
I've had a big performance problem about it about 10 months ago but I emailed them and they took care of it right away by moving my VPS to another server.
Since that time they have did more server upgrades and my VPS runs just like a dedicated server as far as performance goes.
If you want a top of the line VPS with great support, uptime, performance that wont put a big dent in your wallet go with KickAssVPS
History:
I switch to KickAssVPS about a year ago from a shared hosting provider to host a asp.net website to sale software that I have written. The shared host (ourinternet.us) had tons of problems and cost me LOTS of sales. So I started looking for a VPS so we would have 100% control of every thing. We came across KickAssVPS from WHT and decided to give them a try.

We are very glad that you found that a VPS was the correct solution for your needs. Unfortunately at the time we did not offer Virtual Hosting that would suite your special needs.

I just had them upgrade my vps from windows 2003 to windows 2008 and it was a quick setup and no extra charge for the change. They also fix some bandwidth issues I was having starting a few day ago. Went from 80kbps to over 4mbps now, Even better then before.
Its kinda hard to keep updated on a good host. On a bad host there is always something to say about them, but for a good host I'm usually speechless.
I'm off installing DotNetPanel now and getting my new toy setup.

Just an update I'm still with them and every thing is running smooth. I have managed to screw up my vps a couple of times since then but they fixed it in a matter of hours.

Good job keeping the post updated. I know what you mean about not having a ton of things to report about great hosts. I normally keep a log of all my contacts/issues even if minor so I have a record for any reviews.

Just another update I just had them switch back me from Windows 2008 to Windows 2003. On 1GB of ram Win2008 does not seam to do that great once you have every thing setup and running on it.
While I was at it I also had them add an extra IP address to my account as it turns out to be a big pain on running your own DNS Server with only 1ip.
Thanks Again KickAssVPS for your fast response times and great support.

After 2 weeks of slow communications with KickassVPS, I asked for cancellation and refund. I hope they act fast so I can close this story.

Yea I've only used Windows with them. Never any problems on the windows side. I know nothing about their linux side.
