Anyone used servage.net ?

Hi,

Anyone used servage.net ?

They offer 250 GB web space with 2100 GB data transfer for $7.5.

Anyone really use more than 100 GB space with them ? Or they just oversell ? Most dedicated servers have 80 or 120 GB hard disks and 1000 GB monthly transfer, that cost $100 per month.

So how its possible for them to give 250 GB web space ?

Overselling with the help of TOS and Limits ?

Thanks,

Sorry, have never heard of them before. Most hosts do oversell a large amount, some manage the demand well enough not to obtain a bad reputation whilst others over-estimate the demand and end up receiving too many customers and overloading their servers resulting in poor performance and service to their current and new clients.

As a rule of thumb, if you want a reliable hosting provider its best to stay clear from hosts which oversell, this way you can be certain your level of service will not be compromised.

I believe these folks use a clustered system which helps with how they are able to offer their storage/bandwidth values.

I have never heard of this company before bur if you want to know more about it you may use www.*domainedited*.com for this purpose.

Hi Klimm, please don’t post the review site you posted above in your post as this company seems to link to the hosts it recommends via an affiliate scheme meaning most of the reviews provided would be biased as these would work in the review site's favour by providing them with an income, not very realistic for clients looking for honest reviews.

I am sure those looking for feedback on a host should be able to obtain it right here on HS as apposed to being directed to sites which may offer biased reviews through affiliate schemes such as those implemented at the site you happened to advertise.

servage providing you a 250GB hard disk for $7.5 per month? LOL. Get ready to be kick when you hit your 1st 50GB webspace.

I have a hosting account at servage.net and it turned out to be a big SCAM, they took my money and suspended my

account.
Reason: " At this time today our servers have
served more than 428456 requests for your account."
That's nowhere in the terms of service, and they even don't want to refund me. "only 5 day money back guarantee"

This service is only ok for small websites, when you have more than 200-300 users daily, they will surly suspend the

account to keep their servers running. There are better hosting services out there and BEFORE you purchase search

the web for reviews!!

They RUINED my growing traffic with this!!

I advice other hosting purchaser to STAY AWAY from servage if you want a professional and reliable hosting service

and not a service that shuts down your service when they want to.

I think they'll get kicked much earlier :D

I have tried working with Servage.net. It is a miserable failure... because THEY are a miserable failure. NO ONE should EVER use them.

The web pages were so slow and cron and php would crawl, so I resorted for a while just using them for IMAP and FTP.

And then I backed up my office computers to FTP, on an account ONLY ever used by me... it took a lot of time. And then some Servage sysadmin went through my files and randomly deleted some (not all) and then sent me a message that I was using too much disk space (I was paying for and credited with bonuses that gave me 750GB, and I used 400GB for backups) AND they were going to delete anything they thought was copyrighted material.

They are friggin amateurs.

There are also wild differences in their different IMAP/POP servers. For example, srv15 will NOT work with iPhones, but srv9 and srv11 will.

There is also no SSL for email, they use vulnerable and antiquated ports to send and receive. They might as well just forward copies of all your emails to the myriad of Eastern European hackers that sift through their servers every day.

They also suffer from routine and inexplicable service outages. If you can access your email via webmail when client access fails - which happens to be about 4 hours of every week - and contact management, all they say is that "there is not problem so you must be doing something wrong".

Their customer service is a combination of keeping their head in the sand and outright lying to their clients.

There is no phone number to call, and their customer service email system (actually a web interface, which does no good when their own site goes down along with yours, which is often) is just full of emoticons and NEVER provides a real answer. They either deny there is a problem or give a :( like that is going to help your business and communications.

Furthermore, there is a glaring security problem with their client login. To wit, if you:

Log in the the CP as Domain A, then go to a different web page or even close the browser and then log into the CP as Domain B, you are taken to the the CP for Domain A even after Domain B's login being accepted. ONLY if you log out and quit the browser will you be limited to the CP for Domain A. This happens on all my Macs, running Safari OR Firefox 2.

I wrote into Servage about this very problem months ago... and they told me that it was impossible. Yet I still do it. I jacked into a client's website and created an paralell FTP account for myself to access his private files just to demonstrate. And Servage still denied that I did it.

In short, Servage should be run out of this business. They don't deserve at all to even be in the industry.

I quit my account AND I am posting this review/tip in as many places as I possibly can.
