Fiar enough, just for clarity, this is a shared account for the sales team, it is not AnthonySmith.
As long as that person is related to InceptionHosting my dislike includes the company too. That's me as a private person.
Me as a benchmarker aim for objectivity and fairness, no matter what, so in that function (which I took on as a service to our LET community) my personal views are put in the back seat and my objective view is that the products offered in this thread are really great and a very good value.
See this about the CPU AES-NI issue.

@InceptionHosting Is the disk using RAID? If yes which RAID level?
has opened up the ticket, but get rejected by your company
i feel very disappointed on it and its first time been rejected.
stupid service
When I go through the ticket method for identity verification and then stop less than two hours after payment, who says it must be the same as the payer information and my registration information, I don't have a credit card, what's so strange about that?

To repeat again for everyone else, install via template and you will get full CPU passthrough/ instruction sets, you can then immediately install via ISO if you wish, this just saves having to use a ticket in to request cpu passthrough.
Just a limitation of the SolusVM (VPS) control panel
I'll partially quote
Yes, it's indeed ridiculous and why should I delete the installation, install some template and then reinstall my VPS? Won't happen - and shouldn't be needed; The IH team has clearly demonstrated that they are well capable to do a good job and I expect them to really solve that problem.
That said, I mentioned AES only because I know that many want to have hardware AES support. I personally don't care and think that the VPSs offered in this thread are great with or without AES anyway.
You confirmed you understood this explicitly during the order process, 3 times, you cannot continue with the order unless you confirm you understand this.
There were many risk factors with your order including IP origin, the name being different from the account, the address being different from the account, the card is registered to someone else from a different country.
Sorry if you feel that is stupid, but it is a very high business risk.
We also take PayPal, and debit cards, and crypto.
See their KB. Some providers don't want to take any risk at all. I couldn't crack this deal either due to this issue. Can anyone match this deal?
using this product is the biggest risk, you don't know when your service will be suspended, deleted, and the reason may be your privacy they don't know.
There is no risk, despite you being fully refunded already your data has been preserved as you know already and we have even offered to move it to a location of your choosing for you.
I appreciate you are not happy about the situation but consistently miss representing facts is really not very mature.
In fact, it's such a ridiculous RULE that probably only Europeans and manual audits to confirm that the server is used for IDLE can buy it.
I'm afraid chances are slim, not because the price is so low but because one gets a really nice VPS for the low price.
Maybe @seriesn could and would help you out. From what I see he is the only provider who sells good, even great VPSs for a low price. There are of course others with cheap offers (some even cheaper than the current IS offer) but none of those gets even close to the performance and quality of the current IH offer (other than seriesn) that I know of. Theoretically @cociu might have a sweet e5-26xxv4 deal for you too but he has no NL location afaik.
I don't have any preferred location. Anywhere is fine in this config and budget range.
Here is a quick benchmark, based on only 5 runs though.
So we are talking about a processor and memory in the higher end Xeon or the Zen regions. Can't get much better than that.
The disk is on a decent NVMe level and quite consistent, breaking in somewhat only (funnily) when random reading and writing. Also note that it's one of the rather few disks in LET offers that stays in the 3 digit MB/s region even in unbuffered writes.
As for the network, I've already summarized it: some of the best results I ever saw at LET. Just one example: 85+ Mb/s cross-Atlantic to NYC! Hell, I've seen quite a few american providers who can't achieve that within their own country.
TL;DR Even the smallest VPS on offer would be easily sufficient for say medium WP sites and the 4GB VPS will outperform quite a few of the cheap older Xeon dedis. Example: a 2450L or a 26xxv2 typically achieves just about 1/3 of what these VPSs here achieve - and for a ridiculously lower price at that. I'm impressed (and will nag @seriesn to offer something that outclasses these VPSs g).
Also kudos to @Clouvider in case this runs on his network.
In closing, sorry that I couldn't/can't do more runs but it's a friends VPS and he needs it back.
Well done, @InceptionHosting.
Thanks @jsg! 10/10 agreed. @Clouvider probably has one of the "best" network I have seen in this community. The deals @InceptionHosting hosting providing here are not only awesome and fantastic, but also impossible to provide at their current price point, within the same dc, without the backing of the dc.
Gobble up these deals folks, great bang for the bucks if you are a data hog!
Interested in the 15/year plan. Possible to mount custom iso or are there any windows templates as I want to install windows server.
30GB space is more than enough for my needs.
there are windows server 2016/2019 iso to mount
Thanks. May I know if custom iso is supported?
Not as standard, as long as it is something we can get from an official repository or site we can consider permanently adding it though.
Reach out and you might be surprised :-) we have been historically doing deals with providers in LE* market to make the sort of pricing possible. We are very supportive in wholesale.
@Clouvider on its path to become the new (and better) CC? g
That’s not the target but we like to have diverse Customer base :-)
@jsg - @Clouvider and @InceptionHosting already have Ipv6 and clean IPs, I think its CC that has to catch up
Like I said, nothing against it. But lets be fair, most providers offer "unlimited" traffic to begin with (most don't even use a fraction of a few TB's I guess) and you've already taken into account the double disk space while doing the promo
It's a nice gesture but even more it's just marketing. Now..lets say you got a few of "old" customers sitting on their plans and you just upgrade their disk space without saying anything, now thats something you don't see any day.
Still, good luck with the new venture, wish you all the best.
As for people comparing Racknerd with Clouvider...please don't. Just don't. The more days go by the more "unstable" that thing seems. Free shit all around including VPS's...thats not sustainable in the long run no matter how you look at it.
With emphasis for you
Anyway it was half cheek in tongue and half grinning friendly.
Oh, and: I don't care about IPv6 AT ALL. That would certainly not be a criterion for me and btw @Clouvider is clearly better and in fact in another league than CC anyway from what I see; one reason being that "being with Clouvider" isn't smelly (as in "serial hosting scammers").
Thanks brother. I have considered that idea in the past and still did till your recent awesome acquisition. Competing with house brand and upstream is a suicide mission and self harm is prohibited in my religion 😂. I will continue to drool though. Cause boi that network is thicc.
Funny thing re the network:
I was considering moving a PBX from myLoc to InceptionHosting, but while myLoc has direct peering with AS8657 over DE-CIX FRA, traffic from InceptionHosting bounces over both 1299 and 6939 before reaching 8657.
Yes latency is lower but more hops and networks, more potential issues.
@Clouvider , any specific reason why that happens instead of over AMS-IX/DE-CIX?

@tomle no specific reason, we have our policies regarding routing.
Equally I see no technical reason to adjust this specific route, especially that as you say, latency is lower over the Transit and we have, and can afford capacity. Peering is not always better than transit.
Clouvider's AMS is actually connected to AMS-IX but packets are hardly routed to it. Also want to know if there's any reason about it.
