Anyone Have Experience with Server4You

[justhost]

Hello,

We are looking at ordering a dedicated server with Server4You.com and were wondering if anyone has ordered one of their servers? Their prices are amazingly low so we are trying to figure out if they do this by lacking service?

Thanks.

dear price is not the factor every time this is actually what the service providers are doing to attract the customers(which is visible before buying) and by compromising with the quality(which is visible after buying) I'm pointing out any one.

Though I'm not having any experience with S4U but I have few sugestions for you. Before buying consider few things :

Setup Fees - ???
Basic Price (monthly or yearly) - ???
Operating System - you know it.
Control Panel - ???
Additional support cost - ???
Full Root Access - ???


In all the above points Control Panel is very cruicial point because most the people(newbie hosting companies) don't care about what control panels they are getting before buying. You must know that which CP is hitting the market right now and having fully access over server and you should go for it.


Still choosing CP is very controversial but In my personal Opinion you should go for cPanel/WHM Control Panel instead of Plesk, Ensim or any other CP.

But remember that you should be little bit technically sound of some typical hosting issues before going for either cPanel or Dedicated Server(w/o cPanel).

Justhost, didnt u see my thread?

Anyways, Im pretty eager to find out what s4u service etc is like as well. From what I have seen on thewhir.com they are a well established company (in Europe at least).

Hardware for there entry level dedicated server plan is abit old however for $50 what do you expect.

Im prolly gonna sign up in the next week or 2, will post my findings, hopfully they will be good!

You get what you pay for really come into play with S4u, but for the user who is not going to load the server with Mission Critial Applications S4U is a great company. I have my personal mail server there and also a box to run upgrade tests on for PLESK!

Good Luck!@
