Dedicated server - pricing question
 

All you hosting experts out there, what do you think of those prices (especially for the 3.5 Mb capped bandwidth):

Monthly :2 cents: :
Dedicated Server - Managed $370
Backup Service $150.00
3.5 Mb Pipe $690

Thanks for the input!

i get dedicated, managed servers for well below those prices...

The bandwidth prices appear to be rather high. Do you receive full root access with that server? What are the servers specifications? When they say fully-managed exactly what does that include? What is the frequency of the backups? What is the quality of the network under consideration? It is rather difficult to determine the actual value without all of the facts!

I do know that Candid Hosting.com would like the opportunity to develop a proposal for you.

It seems to be a bit high! You will find that there may be other specifications. What are your specific needs?

I think it looks rather high, I'd recommend you to get a quote from NatNet, I did and I sure don't regret it :thumbsup

200$ per mbit, and capped at that? Insane, you can find way lower prices.

Like others have said, it looks high all around, unless it's a very heavy duty server.

You can get an additional HD setup for RAID mirroring and have a backup of everything yourself for an additional $20-50 month (depending on hard-drive size). We also do off server backups for about $2 per Gig of content.

For 3Mb/s capped, and a P4 machine with 1GB RAM, 60 GB HD, is running around $180. You could get another HD to copy all of your content onto for no setup and an extra $20 a month.

So, $200 total you get backup, bandwidth, and a P4. Hope this helps.

Im sure that webair can provide you with what u need

Best thing to do is shop around and deal. First thing you should look for is quality of support and then price.

Good luck. P.S. You should check out National-Net.com :)
