Thanks a lot Liam!
Just ordered one! :)
I’ve heard a fifth location is in the works. Not bad for a two month old company!
A two month old company? Hmm..that means I’ve signed up for a plan since inception.
I have nothing but praise for Backupsy. @serverian is obviously good at his work, and resolves support tickets very quickly. Most responses have been attended to within half an hour.
Last but not least, it has to be noted that when all hosts on SolusVM have disabled their SolusVM panels in light of the recent hacking/vulnerability disclosure menace, my Backupsy panel has been on 24×7. No issues worth mentioning. I recently switched nodes, and also ordered the $2 extra for full VPS usage.
Nice to see a host as responsive as backupsy, impressed within the first hour even :)
@Joel perhaps I miss-read during order as this was a complete impulse buy, what is the $2 extra for exactly?
Thank you Joel, Anthony! That $2 option upgrade for the USA located plans. With that, you can use your backupsy for anything except Torrents, TOR and Game servers in the USA.
I cannot seem to find freenas in the list when ordering?
Excellent offer, I will be telling a few people about this one :)
Just order it with OpenFiler and we’ll mount the FreeNAS ISO for you Anthony.
Oktay
I like openmediavault that is what I setup on my backupsy server.
What OS or script is recommended for easy file sync between my Windows and Android machines?
I’m not sure about Android, Check out Duplicati for Windows/Linux/MAC
I think this should work for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.tacit.android.foldersync.full&hl=en
How much for more GB on a 500GB US plan?
We offer 1TB for $14/month
who programmed your KVM panel? it looks nice.
I did, thanks!
Got nothing to say praise for these guys. Just ordered one and getting great performance and network speed using rsync. Raised a ticket because I had a problem, and got a response/resolution within 1 min.
Thank you!
Just got 500GB US deal for backup purpose.
Just purchased the Netherland plan, 5 minutes to setup after purchase. Their support team is very quick and knowledgeable so far on the few tickets I opened requesting information on geo location and allowed services.
Purchased the NL plan. Over 2 hours and the VPS is still pending. Creditcard is billed and they have my money, but I do not have a VPS. Submitted a ticket, no response. Rather disappointing.
Sometimes some orders are marked as manual check, that’s why you didn’t receive your VPS instantly.
i’m interesting in the Netherland plan. what is the port speed of the Netherland VPS ?
NVM. i saw the port speed in the description.
BTW does Netherland VPS plans allow game servers ?
Unfortunately, we don’t support game servers at all.
The prices are amazingly cheap, I may even have to get one and see how it goes!
How much for a 500GB NL plan?

Please open a ticket at sales@backupsy.com to get a quote.
I am definitely interested in buying a 500GB storage VPS for backing up some data along with my MP3 music library. Would it be allowed under the TOS if I were to set up subsonic on the VPS and use it to stream music to my phone, tablets and roku player?
Please send an email to sales@backupsy.com
Nice panel, nice deal, I just got one in order to backup my VPS.
I was scared by that SolusVM exploit because all my provider using that software.
I’m very lucky not affected by that but I start to think the backup things.
I think that most low-end vps providers not providing backup.
We are responsible for our own data.
By the way, I want to ensure that whether Gitlab was allowed?
I want to backup my code also.
@serverian
Sure, gitlab is allowed.
Too bad Bittorrent traffic and synchronization of copyrighted data is prohibited :'( BTsync is teh way 2 go these days…
Bittorrent Sync is allowed.
Backupsy is great! I went with the 500GB plan and then doubled it. Running own cloud on it. Very fast.
Looks like a great deal, my only concern is I/O being blown up by this kind of deal. Anyone have any issues so far?
None whatsoever. However I’d like to continue using my VPS like this, so please dont buy one! :P
We have not faced any IO issues. Our dd is doing over 500MB/sec all the time.
What specs are enough for Owncloud? I’m concerned that 512MB RAM won’t be enough
We have many people running ownCloud with default 512MB RAM without any problem.
It runs fine on 512 even when configured with mysql. Last time I looked my box was pulling 177MB ram.
How about Windows support?
Send an email to sales@backupsy.com with your reason to use windows and we’ll look into it.
I think the test file for Buffalo & Lombard indicated wrongly in post above.
It’s switched.
I’ve asked @Liam about it. Thanks for pointing it out!
Just purchased the NL plan; great performance and speed.
Teşekkürler!

Hi, I got one and it seems to work fine. Pretty on par with competitors, but it’s nice to see that used disk space is below 1% :)
Our new Denver location is UP!

I order and paid (Already receive detail) But refunded. Should I know the reason of refund?
Great Offer .Can i use my own OS ISO?
Do you offer addon IP’s?

Awesome price, good server performance, huuuuuge space for a web server (add $2/month fee).
Above all, great support (answers within 5mn in average).

Can i do all this on your plan..
Hi,
1. Can I install a repository git?
2. Can I pay yearly with the promo code monthly?
I am willing to order a VPS with you. But few concerns I’ve;
1. Your domain is really new (April 05, 2013), is my data safe with you ? (I’ve bad experience with many new companies)
2. Can we re-install OS ? Like I order VPS with FreeNAS but if I want to reload with any other linux template later then can I do it myself from control panel?
3. Can we run private vpn (again private! for personal use) is allowed ?
4. If I use FreeNAS then can I place my personal MP3 collection to it for personal use
Your good and early response will help me a lot
Thanks
Just tried to purchase 500gb in NL, but out of stock :(
Long shot, but is there an estimate as when new stock will become available for this location in 500gb? I’m definitely interested for remote backups
Hi all,
Do you still happy with backupsy?
I need to host sound files of my user and backupsy looks like a great option.
I’ve used backupsy nearly since the beginning, and their support has been top notch — not that I’ve needed it much! The VPS works and works — its been down a few times in the last couple of years, but they are proactive in notifying of issues and resolutions. No complaints for uptime or server responsiveness.
