Hopefully I can get some new ideas/recommendations to check out. Looking to find a new hosting company for a new site I have - currently have 6 cloud servers with Rackspace but am considering a new hoster for this one. So looking for : Superb Customer Service Cloud Servers that are easy to roll out when required Latest Windows Servers MS SQL cloud server option DNS Management Email management Cost effective - currently paying around £60pm with RS. As said Rackspace have been superb - just want to also make use of different A/B/C classes for the IP ranges. Any thoughts gratefully received. TW
I know this post is 2 weeks old, but where on Rackspace can you get 6 cloud servers for £60pm? All I see are managed cloud options and the cheapest being £20 for 1gb RAM and 1 vCPU core. I have heard good things about Rackspace UK but ideally do not want to pay £20 for those specs.
Hi Pyro No it was £60pm each - sorry didn't make that very clear. But also just found out - they now force new servers to have the managed resource at about £80pm (I think this is a single cost - not per server) so rapidly starting to crank their costs up again now they are well established and I guess the market is becoming more saturated!

Thanks for getting back. I would have recommended AWS but with support I am not so sure. Have you looked at Claranet? I heard their network is good but have not experienced their support.
