Low End Virtual

FlipperHost – $5.75/month 4GB OpenVZ VPS and more in three US locations

Flipper Host

Cenk, from Flipper Host, sent us several HIGH RAM VPS offers for the LowEndBox community. These are good news for people that needs more memory for their applications. All plans are available in Los Angeles, Florida, and Texas locations in the USA. Take note also of the generous amount of bandwidth included on each plan.

    dear everybody on here

    i have never had any problems with flipperhost, on the vps i have with them i run:

    1 minecraft server
    and
    1 teamspeak 3 server

    and i all runs very well, ceko has told me once i was using to much cpu, and he helped me find what was causing it, and i stopped the program, and now its all run very well no problems at all.

    time for my 2 cents

    if you pay $3 for a vps dont think you can run voice servers or minecraft off it, and using openvpn with only 3TB your going to have a bad day with that, i have had a vps with them for 3 months now and ther system runs really well for everything i run, so with flipperhost help i can run everything i need

    thanks

        We were thinking about signing on with Flipperhost but Ceko’s replies are always so snarky and unprofessional.

          Ceko

          Hello,

          I apologize for whatever I replied in a snarky way if I ever did . Though livechat can be busy at times and my replies usually varies a lot depending on the questions too. Again if you have had chat with me and for any reason I was not answering any of your questions properly (I do not recall anything alike) But if I was doing as described even for a while I sincerely apologize.

          Regards

    Well, I got 2 box on FlipperHost from their last year promo. So far I never had any big problem with them. 1 vps I use as openvpn server to my several client. So far so good.

    Another one I use as my experiment server. Their uptime I considered good enough. Everything just fine perhaps becoz I never use any hardcore application. :). Worth the dime I think

    Tied these guys for a few days and heres my short review:

    Made a request for some turnkeylinux templates asking if they was supported, got some rather confused and conflicting responses saying they did support these templates then they didnt, ok fair enough i guess i can live with rebuilding manually.

    A day later I noticed centmin was taking ages to build, rebuilt vps and then noticed commands like yum update ls etc was taking an excess of 30 seconds to complete with solus not being able to query server stats and finally failing to respond at all.

    Ticket raised with issue they responded around 40 minutes later saying the node was being investigated 3 hours + down the line no further forward I decided time to call in the refund option.

    Took a few repeated attempts (and 2 days) to get them to carry the refund out but it was completed this morning.

    I guess hiccups happen but i really didn’t want to have to wait for a day or two on end to have a project up and down.

    Good luck to them but there not for me.

    I Just purchased two #3 machine. Excellent Connection Speed and Performance so far. Do you revise plan rates every month? I fear that I might end up getting stuck if you change the prices drastically next month.

    It is a quite good service, I recommend it. Just a few annoying cons:
    – The disk is quite slow
    – They kill disk caching to save memory

    Bad service, migrating server to another node/location need too long time. When i made backup to my other server just need 1-2 hours. But when i order to migrate to another server its need 7-8 hours, too bad. 🙁

    • Ceko's avatar
      Ceko

      Hello Sugi,

      In most cases the migration needs under 10 minutes it is a simple and standard procedure. In some cases though migrations may take longer time for example when data is too large OR if the database within the data is too large.

    I have vps4 for almost 3 months now and I have to say I am very satisfied. I was quite skeptical and wary since I was moving my sites from digitalocean, but I was wrong. Great product and great performance. At the beginning I had some minor config issues but were solved promptly. Highly recommended !!!

    I have 3 vps4 but one of my server always offline, i have created ticket and they say the problem was resolved, but my server back offline again. Now one of my another server get offline too, so I have same problem on 2 of my vps. Hope they can resolve the issue.

    DO NOT BUY

    Servers auto shutdown when you have too much IO usage… Support is pretty quick about replying, but have no clue what they are talking about and will accuse you of DDoSing as an explanation for your downtime, see below:

    HI Heath

    I checked the other 2 tickets, first one since 15 Sep 2015, our support team responded after 50 minutes and asked if you accept to replace the IP, but you didn’t response.
    Ticket number : 299743

    Second ticket you were complaining about auto-shutdown. I reviewed the Data Center abuse tickets and there were 6 tickets about DDOS Attacking. That’s can explain why you were suffering from auto-shutdown.

    We use Node Watch which preventing DDOS Attacking by auto-shutdown the abusing VPS. As well our Terms of Services doesn’t provide any refunds for abusing clients.

    I am pretty sure if you stopped DDOS Attacking, you will not face any more auto-shutdown.

      They sell this shit by advertising high performance and nice specs, but do not allow you to think about using them. Here is the response I got to my latest ticket:

      Hello,

      We use the tool called nodewach to prevent DDoS and other VPS abuse, Your vps was automatically suspended by nodewatch we are not suspending your VPS. Please understand us we are helping you. I have pasted below the logs for your reference.

        The response to Paypal dispute:

        On top of your rudeness,you’ve been caught using our servers for making outbound attacks, more over you have even confessed attacking at your abuse ticket, thus you deserve no refunds whatsoever. We still offer you 50% refund so take it or leave it.

        I would like to state that I never attacked anyone nor did I confess to such. DO NO DEAL WITH THESE IDIOTS.

          Hello Heath, It is your responsibility if your server is used for attacking others. Keep it secure and do not share your passwords and do scan your pc against viruses.(All these assuming you were sincere about you had not attacked anyone deliberately.

          It is a no brainer we terminate attackers, spammers and anyone not capable of securing their servers against attackers and spammers.

    Been here with Flipperhost since some months. 100% uptime, fast ticket responses and low latency. I know they use QuadraNet but they are very good! They also helped me to stop a DDoS attack.

      Hello Matt,

    I fell in love with Flipperhost. They walked the extra mile changing originally black listed ip:s, handed over an ipv6 as well, fast support.

    Husband bought two of the $5.75 VPS plans. When they work, they are great. But when they go down it can be hours before your service/sites are restored. Support replays fast but does not seem to do anything for hours. Then they ask you to “try sites again” even though it is obvious the sites are down. Really great service when it is working…

      Hello Susan,

      Thank you for your feedback. Those are times the issue is with upstream and not really with our nodes. There are times even the upstream just may timeout. However we are working hard and always being in contact with all parties to make sure all services are in good shape.

    I’ve been with FlipperHost for about 18 months and have two VPS with them now. One in New York and another in Amsterdam. I use them for hosting sites and a VPN. I began with OpenVZ but eventually switched to KVM which I found to be less troublesome as a non-expert myself. I monitor the websites and uptime couldn’t be better. My experience of support has been pretty good.
