Hey guys,
Today I'm doing another one of my mini reviews.
Note: All reviews I make are unbiased and are based on my experience.
Today I'm going to review:
HostUS Solutions Limited (http://www.hostus.us)
@AlexanderM asked me to do a honest review about their KVM range, I am testing their KVM1 plan which I received just short of 3 months ago.
As always I plan on reviewing by firstly giving a score out of 5 and then a brief review. We're going to look at the following:
Price (how fair the pricing is)
Reliability (of the company)
Support (reply times and helpfulness)
Stability (of the network)
Uptime (of the hardware)
Performance (of the VPS)
Let's get started:
Price: ★★★★/5
I'm currently not paying for this service because I was given it for the review, but I give it 4 stars because it is fairly priced and is sustainable for the host ($6.95 for 512MB and 20GB disk).
Reliability: ★★★★/5
The company is a registered LTD in the United Kingdom and has been in business for just over 1 year. No problems here.
Support: ★★★★★/5
I haven't opened any support tickets, because well I didn't need to. But I did want an ISO added so I PM'd Alexander and he was kind enough to add it very quickly. I'm rating it 5 stars because it was quick and professional.
Stability: ★★★★/5
The network is stable, I did notice a few blips like every host but nothing major at all. I'm able to pull at 400Mbps+ pretty much all the time. Latency is around <120ms for me (I'm UK based and the server is in Atlanta, which is normal.)
Uptime: ★★★★★/5
The server has been up for 87 days which means 100% hardware uptime. No reboots by me or HostUS.
Performance: ★★★★★/5
Access to 2 shared cores on an L5520 processor. The disk's I/O is 150MB/s so no problems there.
That's it for today folks, if a provider would like to be honestly reviewed please send a PM my way and I'll see what I can do.
Thank you.
