  • C'mon.. give us something worthwhile.. like 6 month free trial?

    • Yeah, 1 month free is bugger all considering it only costs like $6/m in the first place.

      Hello @Joshuah,
      6 months is a long trial and most companies will lock you in a contract for such a long period.
      At least here you will get one month with no strings attached! :-)

      I rather have the hosting companies not providing free trials, especially long ones, as they attract too many spammers / scammers.

      • Yup, i got bitten once, in the end i made up for the small financial loss with the satisfaction that i made the scammers life hell for a while, so it was kinda worth it. I won't touch any kind of trial now. one of those things that isn't worth skimping on, or taking the risk of using an unknown provider, unless you are just playing around.

  • Why does it say:

    Choose the default payment method that will be used to automatically renew your service. Once you have ordered, you have to make an online payment

    • +1

      No cheques accepted :D

    • Looks like there are strings attached.

    • Hello @amanvell,

      As explained in the offer, your VPS service will automatically renew. So you will be ask for a payment method in the ordering process.
      When you use a debit card, there is an authorisation done to your bank (generally 1$ is charged on your card then reverted back).
      Hope this helps.

    Just use the free VPN on the opera browser. Works like a charm.

      This is for Vps not VPN

    • Hello @bbllaaddee

      To remove the confusion, we are talking about VPS here (not VPN).
      For info VPS is a Virtual Private Server.

    I picked up an OVH VPS during their black friday sales to use as a plex server. Been great so far, definitely recommend!

    • Hi @Yanni1,
      Thank you for your positive feedback and recommendation! Much appreciated

    I used OVH years ago before they entered the Australian market. I rented several dedicated servers and split them up to offer a range of web hosting and VPS solutions.

    I'm sure OVH is just as great as they have been for me in the past. I think it's awesome that they're now offering services in Sydney.

  • Do you have any reseller plans (VPS)?

    • +1

      Hello @webconsultant,

      We do not offer a reseller program but we are hoping to open a partner program in Australia.

    Any plan to increase the speed? 100 mbps is a household speed. I rather have 1gbps speed with half the data quota.

  • This is a vps not a dedicated server

    • I'm fully aware this is vps. Vultr which sell around the same price range provides 1gbps VPS.

      Just like cpu, ram or other resources in virtual environment , the 100mbps is arbitrary limitation imposed by the hypervisor or a packet shaper. I would assume that increasing the speed is as easy and as instant as throttling the connection.

      Also S on the vps stand for server so its reasonable to expect a server to have better connectivity than just 1 home user on a 5 year old cable connection.

      • With 1GB of RAM and 1vCPU do you honestly expect to saturate a 100mbps link?

        • Easily. Serving static files using event driven web server does not require a lot of resources.

        • @pig: Ram

        • @sunnyc Any event driven web server requires very little memory. Nginx can serve +10,000 requests per seconds using only ~100mb of RAM. see benchmark

        • @pig: What about Apache, I run 5 heavy websites and I keep running out of ram
