Hosting at ctn1.com? 6mbps for 59$?
 

Good morning everyone,

http://www.ctn1.com/offres.php?lg=en

Sounds like they got some great deals... Anyone hosting with these guys? And since they are located in France: Can anyone tell sth. about their connection to the US and the rest of the world?

Sounds pretty interesting :2 cents:

Thanks for any input!

ever hear the expression "if it's too good to be true, it probably is"?

They're with Telecity - quality bandwidh, loading quick for me but most stuff is already sold out.

Yeah, that's why I am looking for some input :glugglug

its in france, and its crap.

oversold, and over utilized, reviews from them so far have been bad.

Coming from another hoster :1orglaugh

Can't find any bad reviews on them through google.

Ping is at 62 here and Telecity bandwidh is quality.

www.webhostingtalk.com - look it up yourself.


theyre lil offer of $59 for 6megs on oversold crap isnt something which is threating me, so that was unbiased.

the french threads talk about their slow speeds, horrible customer service and nazi-esque payment rules. they unplug, format and resell servers without notice after a few days of non-payment.

Yeah I know you offer fully managed servers that's something else but hosters mostly try to find something bad about their competition :winkwink:

Just checked their bw review and it doesn't seem to be so good outside of the EU, seems they mostly saved at support and good international peerings.

Allright, thanks guys! That was about what I expected :(

Just get a server at servermatrix or EV1 if you want something pricey and unmanaged.

I'm all for cheap stuff but those prices seems a bit too cheap. But then again, it's CTN1. I host with ISPRIME and just got a new DUAL XEON 2 box www.SagoNet.com and I will stay with them. If it's TOO cheap you WILL get what you pay for.

You get what you pay for, the first reason why surfers leave is slow sites. Why waste your time losing customers to save $5 $10 a month when you work so hard on your website. It's just stupid to work hard then put your website on a shity server.

Think about it you save $5 bucks on a site you spend thousands in time to put together.

Find a good balance and stick with it, remember your site is a business and should be treated that way.

Just my :2 cents:
