When you buy it,still normal price.
I've tried multiple times and still not impressed by LeaseWeb's VPS. I prefer going through a reseller personally.
It's not - you have to select Netherlands or Singapore then it's the discounted price - the OP just forgot to mention the full info provided :-)
No discount for me, I choose singapore for VPS S, but the price remain SGD 6.39.
Fake news, seems to be over I guess? Tried NL
the price seems still normal. so sad !!!!
"up to" means it could be 1 % - 50% discount.
so, for S package it is not 50% discount, only like 10% discount. only L - XXL packages have 50% discount.
and yes, Singapore VPS S package do have discount.
My bad, I did not read "UP TO" part..
They drop prices only for 1 EUR , its not a up to 50% as advertised..
Itself LeaseWeb not a big deal. Their SG traffic routed via US. Also IP re-geolocated. They also manually verify all new accounts by phone call, need await 1-2 days when they call and start asking questions.
It is up to 50% as advertised - their XXL is normally €79.99, and it's currently €39.99, that's a 50.00625078134766% discount.
Ah yes, VPS for the cost of dedi, do someone even really need it with 50% off?
I'm curious. What's your location?
I've always had my Indian traffic take shortest route from leaseweb .
Nowadays even OVH Singapore is decent.
Thank you.
Picked up one of the 4 core VPSes in AMS yesterday, really nice for 8.99/month. Here's a geekbench (posted it in cest pit too): https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/10457956
I really didn't need a NL VPS but that price (and the fact that Leaseweb rarely puts their VPSes on sale) was to tempting for me to resist.
Seems like a nice VPS!
Is the network as good (worldwide) as it was some years ago?
The network haven't changed for better for for worse, there's providers that on a global average performs better, but they still do pretty decent at LeaseWeb.
Their VPS's are just ok, their network is great though.
Recurring or just for one billing term?
It's recurring
How good is their vps line?
@sin what about iops? Good? Thanks!
It would be great if you could post a nench.sh benchmark result.. Thanks..
VPS are good, network pretty stable, very rare downtimes. It's possible expected for such price.
Do you know what is their policy regarding CPU usage? It seems like their CPU is pretty powerful but is it possible to use 100% of it for several minutes without getting into trouble?
VPS L €8.99
They told me dedicated cores, possible to use 100%.
Hetzner more bang for your buck now. But LW have much better network and uptime, but disk speed isn't as good / less CPU / RAM at least for the ~5 eur price point. Hetzner also is > 1gbit.
I find it a bit hard to believe that 8 dedicated cores with 8G ram cost 10E + VAT (after discount)... I've read their terms (most of them, huge documents!) and haven't found anything relevant. I probably send them an email or something.
Hi Guys,
Thought I could clear up a little confusion, I'm afraid the cores are not "dedicated", it sounds like a bit of confusion, may quite well have been from one of our people so I'm very sorry about that.
Our VPS does not have dedicated cores, as most of you will know is of course the same across the industry, that's really what VPS means compared to dedicated cloud servers. However we do have very low overbooking rates, hence why our VPS products performs quite well, this includes the network too of course.
Hope that helps
Also consider that Leaseweb VPS are HA by default. It is indeed a very good offer.
