[casual review] KTS24 VROOT DUS #1 - POWER

I have tried KTS24.com/GT-host.de Black Friday priced SSD VPS with dedicated cores. I can now say something about it.

PRODUCT NAME: VROOT DUS #1 - POWER
CPU: 4 dedicated cores of E5-2670 @ 2.60GHz
RAM: 16 GB
STORAGE: 160 GB SSD
IPv4: 2
CONNECTION: 1 GBit/s
TRAFFIC: fair use (if you go above 3-5TB, they ask you the reason for it [they basically look at whether you are using it as a seedbox or something])
LOCATION: Düsseldorf, Germany
DDoS Protection: Voxility 
PRICE: 16EUR/month when in offer, 23.99EUR/month otherwise

The experience has overall been positive with a couple of hiccups. Performance-wise, I have nothing bad to say. They are with myloc.de for their network and datacenter. The VPS was delivered within minutes from my payment. What did not work out of the box was storage.

The VPS had only 16GB over the promised 160GB. A quick message exchange with @GameTownProjects informed me that this was a bug in their control panel, so I had to fdisk/resize2fs to make full use of the virtual disk. I hope they will fix this bug as it would discourage some customers otherwise.

The automated e-mails were also a mix of German and English (in the sense that some were in German, some were in English). Control panel is nice. It provides essential features, but it feels well-organized. It is also..in German.

Given the skepticisms of some regarding their several company names and websites (there is also haendler.it), I feel like they need to fix these little things here and there before they can be taken more seriously.

The VPS itself was fine. No downtimes, quite snappy and powerful for the price.

I think that they deserve a fair chance, especially if they keep making custom LET offers.

    An understandable mistake. Given the bench.sh one, I often attempt to visit nench.sh to look for it.

    First of all many thanks for the positive feedback.

    The automated e-mails were also a mix of German and English (in the sense that some were in German, some were in English). Control panel is nice. It provides essential features, but it feels well-organized. It is also..in German.

    At the moment all automated mails are on german only. Also our panel and website are only in german available.
    We are working on a new Version of our panel since a while, but while I keep things going, I do not have much time to develop, so why wait a while before we have multilingual systems.

    Our support is already available on english and german.
