Updated February 2011: See
this comment. TheServerExperts (aka the BurstNet reseller despite their denial) is now out of business, and have their website unresolvable on 20 Feb. FAIL!
Via this WHT offer. TheServerExperts.com, a company based in Aruba in the Caribbean and has been in business in 2001 (according to about us page), has recently announced some cheap OpenVZ VPS plans, starting from $5.95/month. You get
- 512MB guaranteed memory
- 20GB storage
- 1000GB/month data transfer
- 1GHz CPU gauranteed
- OpenVZ/VePortal
Servers are located in Scranton with BurstNET/HostNOC, in direct competition with BurstNET’s OpenVZ/vePortal VPS plan. In fact I would be surprised if they are not just reselling BurstNET’s service. So when things fall apart there will be two layers to get through (not that BurstNET is super responsive according to some WHT threads). At least these guys are TheServerExperts… Maybe. What the heck are they thinking when hosting both their NS on the same cPanel box (with Ezzi in NY though).

LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.
Hello,
Just wanted to point out that we are not a reseller, we rent/lease our own private racks inside Scranton datacenter (Burstnet) We also rent/lease space from New york datacenter AccessITx (EZZInet)
We have been in business for over 8 years, nothing is going ti fall apart.
But thanks for the plug.
Have a nice day.

I am afraid everything has fallen apart and you were nothing more than a reseller. All VPS’s have been pulled down leaving customers stranded with no communications of what happened. All emails and phone calls have gone un-answered, however your billing system is still operatioanl and sending out invoices and applying late fees. I suggest people never deal with these guys again and the people associated with it. They can atleast update their website with what has happened.
Erm, you might be interested in knowing that you misspelled ‘Experts’ in the title.
Fixed. Thanks.
Hmmm, just noticed they use the same test IP address as BurstNet does: 66.96.192.92. Of course so are a lot of other folks but it would be a plus to test these separate racks.
They did answer presales questions rather quickly. That’s a plus.
