Michael from Alvotech.de sent us an offer way back in August however after a problem due to human-error it was never posted. Michael has confirmed the offer is still valid.
VPS VL3 – Linux vServer
| VPS VK6 – Linux KVM
|
* After 1000GB of Bandwidth has been used, the port will be limited to 10Mbps.
Michael informs us that Alvotech has been growing very fast, and to keep up with their growth, they have now expanded into the US Market with a presence in Los Angeles at the One Wilshire datacenter. It doesn’t stop their, since they were last featured in July 2011, they have began offering KVM VPS and became a RIPE NCC member. Alvotech have created a special page for this promotion with information regarding both plans.
Their last promotion recieved both positive and negative reviews. It’s probably worth reading them yourself to make your own mind up. Customer support is now available in English, German, Spanish and Turkish. PayPal, Moneybookers and 2Checkout (Creditcard) are all accepted payment methods. They offer a full 14 day refund policy. They offer additional discounts for yearly payments (10%) and 2 year payments (15%).

Is it Burstable Ram or vSwap space? please clarify.
It should be swap, because this is vServer, not OpenVZ.
Alvotech are awesome, FWIW.
Their “Burstable RAM” is a nice marketing term for SWAP. Also, be aware that with Avotech /proc/sys/vm/swappiness is set to 0 and you cannot set it to another value…
so they are using allocated HD, so actual HD is 28G, isn’t it?
Well, yeah, ’cause that’s, AFAIK, how vServer works – you don’t have access to /proc/anything, being that it’s more like a BSD jail than Xen or KVM.
Also, mine has a full 30GB of disk space on /, not 28GB.
Their support is sometimes arrogant. In my case my VPS was being killed when some process ran out of memory. Took me a lot of stress, had to spam their facebook profile, but they fixed it in the end. For more details check this link: http://www.facebook.com/Alvotech/posts/409314189096577
Wow, reading it made me permanently avoid Alvotech. Thanks for posting this.
Oo-oh, the discussion is “Unavailable” for me on facebook. Weird…
For me they were always friendly and have solved a problem when i had one.
They have a weird written ToS IMHO. It looks more like it’s aimed for people who want to use the colocation services of them, IF they had.
It looks like Alvotech just copypasted the ToS of the datacenters used by them for their own ToS.
Dont want to bother checking it now, but at first point their tos was auto translated from german, imagine how that looked?
It’s basicaly right, in german this the TOS is call AGB (global and general terms), in the past our main business was colocation including managed services, we start with VPS in 2010. The terms are overlapping for all our products. In this case also colocation terms are included but not relevant for VPS customers.
So let’s make it more concrete for VPS custumers:
Is Adult content allowed?
Is IRC traffic allowed? Is IRC Server allowed? Is IRC Bot/Bouncer Allowed?
IS private/public proxy allowed?
Is hosting the website of Chechen Resistance or the Anti-Kim-Jung-Un-movement allowed?
Is torrent traffic allowed?
Is hosting a pro-costumer website of ‘How to remove the bundestrojaner’ allowed?
You may install anything on your servers without restriction, within the limits of applicable German, Netherland or US Law (datacenter location depend).
Why charge for VAT?, and no option to remove VAT if not from EU..
If you select in the order form a country outsite of EU, the vat will reduce on the second overview page.
Test file for download?
We offers test vps, please contact our customer support for this.
Can old clients change to another location?
You are able to cancel your vps on the current site and order a new one eg. in LA. A switch with your current IP is not possible.
They collect all personal information, just not SSN.
are they trustable?
You personal details will be record in according with the german/eu privacy law, for more informations please visit https://www.alvotech.de/dataprotection/?lang=en
I’ve been with them for more than a year now… Very stable and fast network.
On their FAQ page, it mentions that they may do some sort of telephone verification: https://www.alvotech.de/vserver/faq/
Unfortunately I don’t have an active telephone service (in fact I don’t see much point in getting one since I never use it anyway).
Do they actually do this? Even for people not in Germany?
The call is based on our anti fraud system, not all customers receive a verification call.
i’ve bought several vps for alvotech, the speed is slow ,do not charge 2048MB Burstable Ram, they were useless.
I want to buy vServer VL5 package is there any discount on it? You are even charging setup fees for this package? Do you allow MoneyBookers or Credit Card?
are crooks with prices if you want to leave services.
I cancelled my vps without any trouble.
