edited May 2020 in General

Hi Guys,

I was just browsing Ikoula website and saw that the Agile S i3 is now in 50% discount.

It's a Core i3-8100 dedicated server (4C/4T) @ 3.6GHz, 8GB of RAM, 1TB Sata 3 or 240GB SSD, plus an Intel Graphics UHD 630 for only 17.50€
The coupon code is: IKL50PI3

There's no commitment.

    They have reduced their Ram and changed the pricing in new products.

    Not sure but the one I bought a month back (Agile S) was with 16GB Ram and now it's 8GB + increased price

    Smells like them trying to rake some extra money fast, 'coz the end is near.

    On the last promotion, people here on LET said they do this often.
    But yes, it's strange. Not even Kimsufi does this so cheap.

    Ikoula got unstable the recent days, todays outage, even the website was gone.
    On monday, one of my machines had a 7 hour outage.

    So far, I would not recommend them until it get stable again.

    They've been around since 1998 I doubt they will just Deadpool, but it does look like they have have been having issues lately.

    They are planning maintenance to hopefully fix a few issues:

    Following a network incident that took place on Monday May 4th, 2020 on one of our datacenters, we are working on corrective and anticipatory measures, by launching several equipment changes and updates.

    The first set of interventions will take place on the night of Tuesday May 5th to Wednesday May 6th, from 12:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. (CEST).

    We'll have to wait and see but I trust they'll get sorted soon, although I am a tad suspicious with how low these prices are for these machines.

  • DianTamaDianTama Member

    Yeah just got mine and still error on installation.
    and I'm here still learning how their panel works because not every word is translated to English

    That's a xeon, not an i3, though (?)

    Before the instability, how have they been? I'm tempted...

    Has anybody done a YABS?

    I'd be interested in Ikoula's network and how this i3 cpu compares to the Xeon E3 1220v5 which has been promoted recently.

    I didn't grab this promotion, I grabbed the previous with the Xeon E3.

    So, I got the server for 9 days now. I'm getting 2 e-mails almost everyday from their alert system saying that the "Host is unreachable" but it seems to be fine to me.
    Didn't got any downtime some far and can easily reach 900 Mbps download and 800 Mbps upload. So, can't complain so far.

    Great, thanks for the feedback. A lot of reviews I found were from some years ago, so not sure if things had changed since then...

    Heres the yabs.
    their support is good, max reply time always under 24hours. sometimes it fast.

    the only downside is, their panel confusing. and also when deploying with proxmox its always error so need support help.

    The discount coupon gives a "This coupon cannot be applied to your order" message so seems the offer is gone now. :/
