My decision to move one of my site to SynHost.eu’s V-Bronze VPS plan a couple of weeks ago was crazy because I don’t know them and at that time they don’t even have a proper about us page and TOS. However, I do believe in what lowendbox.com promote here and I just join them.
Now beside the shared hosting and VPS package, SynHost.eu is also offers Dedicated Server plan, Shared Reseller plan, and V-Reseller plan.
The online support is quite responsive, and I think SynHost is managed directly by the owner, so just like other good provider who directly involved in managing the business, it is not about how good the machine is but how we trust them as a business partner.
I believe SynHost.eu is one of the “new emerging forces” in hosting business.
Good Luck,
if youre looking for a stable VPS provider, then do NOT choose synhost. i have been a customer since Jan 2010 after seeing this advert, and have had many many problems. server migration from dc to dc lost/deleted ALL my data from my VPS which was not retrievable. it then took 1 whole week in order to actually get a reply from their so called ‘first class 24/7 support’ team. if thats 1st class, i’d hate to see 2nd class. after i finally got a reply, it took them another 2 days to setup my new VPS. once i had redone everything on my server, after roughly 60 days of uptime, the server crashed. luckily this time i did not lose my data, but it did take 4 days for the server to be back online, and support took the whole 4 days to actually get a response from anyone. and now again after ~15 days the server has crashed/gone totally offline once again, and yet again the support tickets and even irc contact are just ignored, it has been 24+ hours and still no response. this company is a big JOKE and i suggest you avoid them. synhost.eu and igsobe.com are the same company. avoid them at all costs! *disgruntled customer*
SynHost has been going up and down like crazy last month. Looks like it might be gone for good this month?
I was wrong! Synhost was sold to Internet Gateway of South Beach http://www.igsobe.com in early March 2010, and I was assigned a new IP address. However the IP address given apparently was not clean, and on April 9th, my account was suspended due to abuse complaint without any confirmation to me beforehand. It took me 2 days to move to other VPS and beside losing some income, it hurt my google rank too. Well, just another webmaster experience, good first impression is not always good.
