  • 10x buyvm or so, mostly small OVZs, couple medium KVMs
  • 2x RamNode medium OVZs
  • 1x A Small Orange, which is more of a managed provider.
  • ~2.5x EC2 instances
  • bunch of dedis.

Haven't really had problems with anyone so far. Obviously, I like the performance/price at buyvm.

Curious what providers everyone here uses.

I currently use RaxWeb for a Hostbill server, though I just canceled it today. Not due to any fault with RaxWeb, VPS was great but I wanted to tinker with Hostbill and the leased license I got required it to be on their IP range. Was a good performing server and Hostbill is pretty slick.

Other than that I have two ServerDragon VPSes that I use. One is used as part of a cPanel DNS only cluster, the other being a personal VPN that I use for SSHuttle (poor man's VPN).

I was using a BuyVM DDoS protected VPS as a VPN, as some nasty individuals seemed to enjoy knocking me offline when on #lowendbox IRC where my IP was displayed. But the I'll be giving this VPS up as it's physically too far away from me to be used as a decent VPN. Uptime and performance is good and the Frantech IRC is always entertaining. I'm also lucky to be able to obtain it when stock was available.

I've also go a couple URPad VPSes that I use for some personal sites/projects and as part of a geographically diverse DNS cluster. All my dev stuff is hosted there.

And last but not least, RocketVPS for my cPanel server. I got a great deal when they were having a promotion months ago and snagged one while I could. It's been performing great and hosts all my projects.

It wouldn't surprise me if I've gotten a VPS or two that I've forgot about that I prepaid for and have never used. I need to get my servers in check!
BuyVM Ramnode and my own :)

Production stuff: Prometeus and TorqHost mainly, but InceptionHosting, Fusioned, OpenITC, ProviderService and LFCVPS as well.

Edis': Misc vpn/proxies/irc.

FlipHost: Owncloud, backup and vpn for geoblocked .US content.

As per my sig: BuyVM, Ramnode, and ServerDragon are my favorites. :)

I've also got a CVPS 2GB yearly (which I probably won't be renewing, due to lack of use), a Provision Host yearly box, and a few other misc ones.

I see a lot of RamNode clients in this thread. Can't thank you all individually, but I appreciate your business!

I use BuyVM, Hostigation, and URPad (although I forget what is on the URPad now...)
 

Tux

DigitialOcean? lel
1x RamNode 2048MB OVZ (runs one of my sexy Minecraft servers with one of the best gTLD names around), BYOND, and who knows what else)

1x RamNode 512MB KVM (backups, LEMP stack, ZNC)

Who knows how many?!? 512MB OVZ (mostly LEMP stacks)

1x RamNode 128MB OVZ (Seattle, WA -- infrequent use, so now I run Mumble on it. Adding I2P later.)

1x ChicagoVPS 256MB (idle)

1x Host1Free (don't use it a whole lot, network is laggy)

1x OVH KS 1 dedicatedn
 

texteditor

Premium Buffalo-based Hosting
Yearly OVZ (mostly idle ATM:)

1x FlipHost SSD 128

1x ServerDragon 128 (2x IP)

1x URPad 1.5G/50Gb)

1x VPSSlim 128 (2x IP

Other OVZs

2x RAMNode 256MB CVZ (1 SEA 1 ATL, for serving static content

2x IPXCore 1Gb/150Gb $4 specials (serving up Linux ISOs over Bittorrent Private trackers)

KVM

1x BuyVM 512 Storage (same use as IPXCore boxes

1x RAMNode 512 (Part of OpenBSD KVM web cluster project)

1x RAMNode 256 (personal OpenBSD dev server)

1x Prometeus 512 KVM (Part of OpenBSD KVM web cluster project)

I think I'm done buying OVZ until I get my IRC bouncers/VPNs/small sites set back up on the ones I'm renting already, unless I find more exotic locations. No complaints with any of the hosts except VPSSlim (same reasons many have noted about I/O, also low bandwidth cap) - I've generally been vary careful about picking my hosts from the upper part of the quarterly LEB polls and/or hosts who are cool dudes on IRC.

Things I Want:

KVM in NL (looking at Fusioned, Iniz, and WeServIT)

Want to move all seedboxes to OVH, get storage VPS from Iperweb

Get more KVMs from Hostigation, possibly 1 more from RAMNode, and one out of Prometeus' Biz line
