Support:

Support with WEDOS is honestly amazing. I haven't had much experience with other providers yet but WEDOS is by far the best. They offer 24/7 live chat support for literally every section they offer (VPS, HDD, webhosting, domains and so on). Three weeks back I had some serious issues loggin into my VPS and I really didn't know what to do, within couple minutes I've received an email from admin saying that something went wrong on the very same main server that my VPS was located in and that the problem has been solved. After couple hours the problem occured again and I received another email saying that the issue is related to some major hardware fuck up. I was also told that during the time I might expect another shutdown (which never really happened). Next morning I checked my email as usual and I've noticed new email from admin saying that the whole issue has been fixed and they gave me an extra month as sort of apology. I know I've already mentioned this but these guys are real good when it comes down to support. One thing I should mention which is not really related to support is that the entire site is in Czech so it might be kinda difficult for some.

Overall experience:

Sometimes when I try to log-in it sort of lags for a short period of time but I guess that sometimes happens. It's not a big deal though. As I said I'm not really experienced user so I can't really give you the details but so far after a month of usage I have only experienced one downtime and that was related to the hardware issue mentioned above. Good thing about WEDOS is that everything is basically theirs since they own the whole datacenter. The dd test showed that the speeds are really slow so I guess that might be a problem for someone. I should also mention that you get 10 or 20GB bonus to your VPS (WEDOS Disk). Okay even though these results might not be any good I still think it's worth sharing.

Aye, sorry for jumping the gun there.  Had a bit of a kneejerk reaction to a first post being an order link to a provider XD

Anyways, nice review!  Welcome to VPSB.. you should pop on over to the Introduction Thread and say hello :3

Wedos support is good, like their chat support. Had WIndows VPS there and experience is good.
