Alex from US-based Fliphost sent in an offer for some of his new special SSD KVM based packages, in a new location, LA, as part of their 2 year anniversary as well as some OpenVZ SSD plans.
SSD KVM1
| SSD KVM2

Note: All prices are prorated, so the checkout price may appear less than the recurring amount. Also once stock is sold out the promotion will end.
We’ve all seen the abundant 2GB RAM OpenVZ offers, but rarely do we see a KVM equivalent which Fliphost are providing today. Fliphost were founded in June 2011 and were just celebrating their 2 year anniversary, they have featured back in May with a 1TB storage plan, so they’re not new to ‘going overboard’ with resources. It will be interesting to see how this performs, so as always do share your experiences below. Alex informs us that the servers they run are Dual E5-26XX’s with 128GB RAM and 8x Intel 520 SSDs in hardware RAID10 with the LSI 9266/9271 card. It is also worth noting that these KVM special plans can be ordered yearly for the price of 10 months, if you submit a ticket for it.

Alex also dropped in some yearly and monthly OpenVZ based SSD offers too, featured above. Fliphost have thrown in a few ‘bonus’ services such as their self restore backup system (OpenVZ only at the moment), free Rage4 Anycast DNS and Offloaded SQL (available with a ticket). It does seem IPv6 is lacking at the moment however. Payments are made through PayPal and refunds are processed on a case by case basis. Prohibited activities are simply anything illegal in the US, as well as Tor exit nodes and anything that can affect the performance of your neighbours on the node. As always do read the ToS before purchasing.

Very nice , i like this offer.
Glad you like it, If you have any questions just let us know.
Did you try it?
I got test vps from Alex last month, performance is really good!
I am glad you are enjoying your server. If you ever need anything just let us know :)
@thuvien,
Could you please run the benchmark, below, and post the result back here?
command not found@mitsuhashi: It requires mysql server.
What’s the cost for additional bw? For example +5Tb?
$4 per TB
Can we get a test file for the LA location?
http://quadranet.com/speedtests/100mb.bin
Test period ended and vps terminated. Take a look at my short review here: http://www.thuvienvps.com/blog/fliphost-4thang-512mb-openvz-ssd-tai-dallas-tx-giam-50/
Thanks for the review :)
P.S. And also the handy translation button on the side.
Um… How do I access SolusVM? The solus subdomain doesn’t work.
It’s probably disabled for security reasons. If the WHMCS SolusVM module is enabled, you can access it via WHMCS by clicking on your VPS from the Services tab. For reinstall, most likely you should open a ticket.
Ahh, thought that might be ironed out by now but I guess not. I’ll just wait, I guess, since I won’t be doing anything on it for a few days.
They are right. Disabled for security. In the meantime just contact us it you need something the panel did.
Is it possible to use openbsd?
If you provide an ISO
could you download it from the openbsd website?
Yes

Thank you for sharing.
very interesting offer, many OVZ, but no KVM’s up until now, only downside is no ipv6, well, not very important for most people
I try to make it different. ;)
Back on topic, stock is almost gone so buy while you still can.
Looks good
Only one left in stock
LA is now sold out. OpenVZ still in stock however
scratch that, one left.
Is this a recurring offer, or is it the set price every month?
This is recurring
No more KVM?
Out of stock currently. It sold out very fast. I am working on getting another node up.
Very interested in this offer! Please let me know when it’s back in stock. (the KVM one)
i will make sure to post here
Please let me know when one is available too. KVM either 1 gb or 2gb
I’ll be watching this space very intently :)
Any update on new nodes or stock?
Waiting for a reply from data center
Hoping there will be more nodes and vps on stock . Would be nice to test these VPS .
@Fliphosy,
FYI, your SSL for https://solus.fliphost.net/login.php has expired.
Thanks I will get this sorted.
Probably worth adding that Fliphost support time is strictly 8 AM – 10PM EST.
The Fastest replies will certainly be then. However emergencies will be answered overnight.
We have an auto reply setup if it is out of those time just so that clients don’t feel they are being left in the dark.
“Thank you for contacting our support team. A support ticket has now been opened for your request. You will be notified when a response is made by email. The details of your ticket are shown below.”
That’s just the default WHCMS template. My ticket was answered only after 8 hours. It wasnt a life or death situation, but still I was used to other providers responding in a couple of hours.
We have another system that auto replies as well, besides that one.
We are always looking into ways to improve our service. Support is one of those ways. Most times tickets are responded to quite fast.
Just an update. Placed the order for a new node and will update once it comes in stock
on last offer, im late..
want to order but still out of stock, could you provide order link?
Wow! LAKVM1 has 150ms pings from my house. That’s the fastest I’ve seen so far!
If only I could figure out how to use KVM…. lol
It is generally the same as a dedicated server, with a nice panel.
Keep watch, we will have stock soon
I’m a Fliphost customer with 2 KVM LA VPSes. Fast support. Recommend!
Thanks, Glad you are happy with us :)
No goods?
Node is on order, some parts have to come in. Will get it up right when they come in.
Thanks for the transparency in keeping us updated — I appreciate it and am excited to sign up! Do you have any time estimate?
About a week most likely
no new news?
Just that I was told ETA 7-10 days about 4 days ago
ok thanks :)
You should update your main page , it still says : “Copyright 2011-2012 – All…” .
As far as I am aware it only needs updated if the content changes.
Our website is being replaced soon with a new design, it will be updated then.
Copyright is automatic anyway.
SSD KVM 2 / Out of stock :( . Do u plan to add more ? thanks.
Yes Just waiting on node order to come in. Few more days.
Will update here once back in stock
Bad news just got word from the DC that some parts are on back order and it may be another 5-10 days from today :(
Thanks for the update.
How will we know if you have new stocks? Will you be posting a new promotion?
I will post it here in the comments, or you can open a ticket and ask to be notified when it is back in stock
What’s the rate for additional ssd disk space?
$.50 per GB
I ordered one back in May. The vps is quite robust and fast compared to those other vps providers with similar specs. I just had to get one more vps before the offer expires.
Glad you have enjoyed your server so far. Let us know if you need anything more.
I was use local IP address of my country but still get fraud order. It is third maxmind error
huff…. how can I order with this condition.
difficult at all to order this service
Whenever an order is flagged as fraud a ticket is automatically opened.
Please follow the steps outlined in that ticket
How many servers could I buy? Is there a limit?
No there not a limit
Any new news? I don’t mind waiting, I just want to know if I should continue doing so. Thanks a lot!
Yes good news in fact. More stock will either be put up today or tomorrow.
Packages have been restocked
Great. I’ve just ordered one :D
Their support is fast, friendly and useful. Highly recommend!
Thanks for the recommendation :)
Awesome, awesome awesome awesome. I wonder if these will sell out quickly? I bought one but may wish to get another for a side project.
I do expect them to sell out fast, so get them while you can
Hey Guys , I just bought a VPS ( VDS ? ) from them and I have to say they are great ( AWESOME ) . Cheap VPS Performance ( IO. / wget / and so on … ) / Fast / Great Support . Thank You :)
Glad you are liking us so far. If you need anything just let us know.
Oh by the way , you really should update you main page ( http://www.fliphost.net/ ) . The footer links aren’t working :)
The full site is being replaced shortly
For some reason I don’t understand the pricing when clicking on the order links. Shows me something drastically different than what is advertised here. Made sure the promo code was in too. How would pro rating a price increase a $4 a month offer to $20?
Hmm something certainly seems funky. I know I have had people order both without issue so I will look onto it.
Did you go to checkout? Order link is working fine for me.
As far as I can tell it is working. Did you go to checkout as DalComp said?
I did go to checkout. Went as far as paypal and it wants $7/mo grew to $80 for 90 days. I clicked on the SSD KVM2 package.
The promocode only applies to monthy, sadly our billing system does not allow us to specify different values for each billing period.
I see your order and will modify it now.
Thank you!
Sorry for being a pain.
It is no trouble
Said the promo code applied but doesn’t qualify. ?
Check your email
Promo code will be automatically applied when you do checkout. These offers are incredible. Don’t miss these :)
I don’t think this kvm is ssd, i buy SSD KVM1, buy IO is so slow. because i look it’s ssd,so i buy,now i fell bak.

Hi,if I add cpanel in the order,the price would also have “76.67% Recurring Discount” and the logged IP is not my IP,it’s cloudflare’s IP,you’d better change it to X-Foward-For one.
