Hi Kev, thank you for reaching out – I’ve responded to you. Welcome aboard!
I purchase kvm server with live chat help. I fail login blacklist support fix rapidly good racknerd
Hi vps fang – we’re striving to provide fast yet effective support – our customers mean everything to us. I’m happy we were able to help.
Thank you for trusting us.
Ordered. So far so good, they have a nice selection of Linux templates and I was able to change my OS without needing to contact someone.
Will report back.
Hi LiamS, that is awesome – happy to have you with us. If we ever fail to meet your expectations, please email me directly dustin@racknerd.com
Thank You!
I like offers so I take KVM. Hope to take few more coming days. TY
Hi Javier,
Thank you so much for pulling the trigger and signing up with us. I know you will be very happy with our services.
Got a OpenVZ VPS…! nice RAM :D
Hi Angel – so glad you purchased one of our OpenVZ promotions — thanks for doing business with us.
This is a brand new company, I hope this is a very limited time promotion to get publicity and not their standard pricing.
At this level of discounting, they’ll never make a profit.
I’d rather they survive and provide a reliable service vs go out of business due to discounting.
Hi Di Wu – I understand the pricing we’ve put together is very attractive! This is what makes our promotions perfect for Black Friday — and everything we promote of course is in consideration of what we deem sustainable. We are here for the long-haul.
I think the IT MSP business is much more lucrative than selling unmanaged VPS.
I hope you add those type of managed IT services beyond infrastructure. VPS infra is commodity business with very little profit margins.
Hi Di Wu,
I absolutely agree that the MSP market is quite lucrative – we will be focusing on those type of customers soon as well. We, for now, have a product line DRaaS, and are looking to partner with Datto for that. Send me an email if you have other recommendations as well. I would love to connect!
Is docker and k8s supported on OpenVZ 7 node?
Hi David, thank you for your interest in our services!
Yes, in fact, both are supported – if you need any assistance just open a support ticket. We are more than happy to help.
How’s fair share calculated?
Hi Misha,
That’s a great question, actually – this doesn’t have any specific amount of limitation, but we’ll always contact the customer in advance and address this on a case by case basis should we notice host node issues due to one abusive VPS. Otherwise, it’s considered fair. We are reasonable :)
Nice Black Friday deal, thanks for the post. Hard choice (dont get me wrong both are great offers) but since the OpenVZ package offers a lot more resources from both space and memory perspective for the same dollar amount…but sat on it for 10 minutes and decided to go with a KVM VPS, just in case I ever wanted to compile my own kernel or something later on I didn’t want to be limited by the containerization nature that OpenVZ is. Hopefully I made the right choice :) The VPS seems pretty fast and nimble so far, live chat was helpful before I ordered, overall a great experience so far.
Hi David, I believe you made the right choice :) I know both offers are lucrative, and for your use case, KVM was the right choice.
Thank you for doing business with us. If we ever fail to meet your expectations email me directly dustin@racknerd.com
Hi, interested in the black friday KVM deal – is there a qty # per customer that can be ordered? Might be needing more than a few if this project runs as intended
Thanks, Happy BF – Aaron
Hi FiberAaron, that’s a good question!
No maximum quantity per customer, feel free to order! And the beauty of bulk ordering is that we have many nodes, so your VPS will be provisioned on separate nodes. This, of course, is dependant on inventory, so order fast ;)
This deal is very good. you got your VM instantly after payment. Disk speed is good. OS boot within 10 secs (Centos 7)
BTW, there is centos 8 available!
Hi Tackle! Thank you so much for giving us a try – happy to have you as a customer :)
I got one of their deals and very impressed with how quick their support responds. I hope they got consistency because if they do, they will get more happy customers.
Hi Winston, thank you for sharing your experience with the community.
We’re committed to our customers, service availability, performance, and support.
I know you’re happy with our service; if that changes ever please email me dustin@racknerd.com
Ordered one, installed with ubuntu quickly. Happy black friday :D
Hi Lars, thank you for signing up with us and selecting us as your new provider :)
Happy Black Friday!

Hi qi,
Thank you for sharing your experience — I’m very happy to hear this.
Thank you for your business, we sincerely appreciate it.
Hi, Dustin, I have ordered two KVM server VPS now.. please help to make sure they are on different node if not already. Thanks for the fast setup.
Hi babaserver,
Thank you for placing your order with RackNerd – it is highly likely the provisioning of your services were deployed on separate nodes, though you can always open a support ticket here https://my.racknerd.com/submitticket.php?step=2&deptid=1 and we’ll confirm that is the case.
Thank you again for doing business with us.
VPN is allowed? I want know before orders.
Hi afraz, thanks for your interest in our services! Yes, that is allowed.
If you have any additional questions be sure to ask, we’re here to help any way we can.
Hi, may i know this vps can install docker?
Hi Ben!
Thank you for your interest in our services, you can install docker with our VPS.
If you have any issues, just let us know and we’ll do our best to help!
Good news for existing and future customers – RackNerd’s NEW FEATURE: You are now able to set rDNS (also known as PTR) records for your VPS IP addresses without needing to open a support ticket!

If you aren’t doing business with us yet, now is the time :)
i have a list of 10k registered users,
can i send them emails?
Hi leon, good question!
If these are opt-in, your customers – no abuse, clean emailing then it is fine. It is dependent on your mailing practices.
I just signed up after seeing this deal. Need to learn about VPSs and the spec is good :)
tdwuk – thank you for having the courage to order, I know it can be quite scary taking on a product you’re not so familiar with.
This is the perfect way to learn, the leap you’ve taken is a road to new beginnings. If you ever get stuck from a technical perspective, just open a ticket and we’ll do our best to lead you in the right direction.
My e-mail is dustin@racknerd.com – I’ll be here for you as well.
Thanks, I will contact you when the inevitable issue arises!
Hi, can I know until when this promotion will available? Interested with the KVM deal.
Hi Mamy,
We recently added more stock. If you find that they’re sold out, just send me an email dustin@racknerd.com and I’ll see what I can do :)
Any chance you’ll have Ubuntu 18.04 available soon? Thanks!
Hi Luiz, good question. As of right now, we have Ubuntu 18.04 available on our KVM plans, you can order here:
https://my.racknerd.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=26&promocode=LEB-BF2019

Ordered one server and was happy enough I added a second a few days later. Speeds are acceptable on both, installs on both completed quickly. And best of all it’s not on Colo’s network. The worst thing if there was anything looks to be a little bit of a bottleneck at 107.179.61.113 but that could also just be something in the routing since even with totally independent connections I have here both ended up going through the same core router at pccw.
So far quite happy and for the price more than reasonable while keeping that risk factor low.
Hi Robert, thank you for signing up with us and for giving us the opportunity to be your provider. We also have good news, we just expanding into DC2 (Los Angeles) – open a sales ticket, I’ll tell you more. I might even do something very special for you as well :)
How many IPv6s are available?
Hi Leah! thank you for considering our service.
We can easily allocate IPv6 – after ordering your VPS just open a ticket requesting as many as you like (up to 100). We allocate these free of charge.
Hello! Is this offer still available?
Hello Valentin, thank you for your interest in our services! We actually just added more stock, feel free to place your order.
I’m confident you’ll be very happy with the level of service we provide.
These guys have the quickest support ever. I’m on the other side of the planet and someone got back to me within the hour. Mad props.
Hi S B,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the community. this means so much to us.
We are always happy to hear as a team that our customers are happy, and what we’re so passionate about reflects on our end-user experience.
Hi Dustin.
Could you provide a web link (1GB test file, for example) to this LA site, not just the IP, so we may test drive connectivity to it?
Hello Plinio de Paula!
Thank you for your interest in our services, we actually have a looking glass available which has test IPs/files – you can see it here http://lg-lax02.racknerd.com/
We hope to do business with you!
