    Ordered a week ago, took only 40 minutes to provision my host at 10am GMT. Rebuilds are fast and easy via web site, no performance problems so far so I’d say excellent value for money.

    Seems very strange to limit additional IPv6 addresses to 3 and to require justification for each, IPv4 I could understand but IPv6 is a virtually unlimited resource!

      Glad to hear that your experience is positive! 🙂

      More IPv6 addresses can be requested by sending a ticket.

        I appreciate I can request more addresses, but why should it be necessary? You/HostUS have 309 septillion addresses in your /44 assignment, you could assign one out every second of every day for the next 9.8 quintillion years, assuming the universe doesn’t end beforehand… The whole exercise of justifying and individually serving out IPv6 addresses seems to most pointless task in the history of wastes of time, in business terms that’s just pure costs on your end and the customer’s.

    Ordered the 768MB service and was up and running in under 45 minutes. I’ve had uptime issues on some of the VPSs I’ve gotten from LEB, but this has been up and running ever since I did my final start. Only problem I’m having is that they’re out of stock and I can’t get any more! Very happy with service so far.

      Most users prefer using IPv4 and our IPv6 traffic is much less than our IPv4 traffic. More IPv6 addresses can always be requested for free.

    Alexander, I’d like to purchase another of the 6GB VPS, and I’m really happy the offers are still live, but available only in Atlanta. I’m looking to have another provisioned in either LV/Dallas, is there any chance of additional capacity being added to any of those locations for the same offer ?

    I’m using their 768MB VPS yearly, but somehow, my PHP-FPM and MariaDB goes down few times in a week, and I couldn’t find the reason. I have nginx+php-fpm+mariadb with the same configurations and setup on few others low end VPS, they run just fine, without any problem. So I don’t recommend anyone to this provider.

    Hello

    I own a large hosting company with the name centiplex.com, and we work in the field of web-site designing and development.

    We have clients internationally and for the same, we always needed the servers which are high performance, low price.

    The most important thing for us was always quick response from the company support.

    I have tested lot of server hosting companies like

    bluevm – one of the worst vps company I have ever seen. Poor servers, poor management, support is worst.

    flexihosting – good company, very fast response, highly motivated team, great hardware and network, little bit on the costlier side, but in the end, you get what you pay for, and they are worth every penny, you invest in your servers.

    hostus.us – one of the recent company, I found and believe me, I am amazed with their price, the fastest response of their support team, very knowledgeable engineers, they know what they are doing.

    We purchased two servers from the company, initially we had some problems configuring the servers with them, even though we were on un-managed servers, but the company gave us out of limit support that too without any extra investment or single penny.

    I find their servers very reliable, cost effective, very wonderful staff.

    I would recommend hostus.us to anyone who are willing to buy new servers for their projects.

    Regards
