What about servermatrix?Is anybody using them?

[Dacky]

I need info. Is anybody using them?
Are they good?

They're ok for starters, once your server gets above 1000GB/month you might experience slow downs. Also their support is limited as its really a do it yourself service. Plus they over subscribe their lines so you might get slow delivery of content from time to time. If you're just starting out their prices can't be beat, but if you're looking for a reliable long term solution I would go elsewhere.

Instead you might want to check out a virutal hosting plan at:

Do they use Plesk? I couldn't find it.

I am using servermatrix and like their services. I'm approaching over 1000GB in bandwidth. Servermatrix prices for more bandwidth is pricey, any recommendations on where to get a server that has more than 1000GB in bandwidth and still good prices?

Add a second one with load balancing ... works great and fast....

ServerMatrix is O.K. that's about it, they have constant problems with DDOS attacks and network outages, I would suggest ev1servers.net over them.

servermatrix is awesome man, but you have to be able to manage it yourself, or find somebody to do it for you.

what is your problem? Why the hell are you spamming your site when the topic is servermatrix? Obviously people in this topic are looking for affordable dedicated hosting, not a crappy p3 server for $450USD a month vs getting dual xeons at servermatrix for $169USD a month.

you too SinSational

how do you do this? just contact servermatrix and tell them to add a second server on with load balancing?

How does the second one work to balance the load? Do I need the exact same server or will a weaker powered server work just fine?

I can see what you mean by "slow downs" when you get near 1000gb a month. I've been waiting for cpanel to load for 5 minutes now and still waiting

Contact the adult hosts and try to get a deal. You can come close to servermatrix prices with a lot of them.
