Hey,

Anybody knows anything about this provider?

Hmm, I asked them via live chat and they said that they are not. They have co-located in that datacenter.

Had some bad experiences with them last year the far worst is that I've waited one month until I got the server

As you may notice now..they have only 4 servers available
https://www.vectoral.info/servers/servers.php

If budget is not your main concern I'll definetly choose other reputable provider ..

@INVIHO, I have implemented a "leave all clients happy or refunded" policy in case of reasonable unsatisfaction with our service. I'd be glad to solve all your problems up to now if you can send over your client information via PM or e-mail - if you are not a current client and you are willing to give us another try, let me know - I'd be happy to give you a free trial so you can try us out.

We have made very big investments in our support, now we have more than 2 times the staff on support than we had just a few months ago and all outsourced support has been removed. Our network has also been upgraded significantly, just a week ago we added 10Gbps Tiscali to our network mix.

I have been working extremly hard to fight the image of the "old" Vectoral and for this reason I put myself out there and invite anyone, friend or foe, to give input - be it good or bad - on our service directly to me at chris.coughlin (at) vectoral.info

I have had a server with vectoral for a few days now and had no problems what so ever. The staff are friendly. The servers are very reliable, The 100mb/s connection is completley flawless. I doubt theres anywere else on the web that would offer such low prices and such excellent customer service. No Minimum contract also witch is an added bonus!. So far i have taken out 3/4 support tickets for help with adding domains and name servers etc eatch one of those tickets was delt with within 5 minuts now were else are you going to get support like that?. Live chat i agree could be online more but for people in different time zones should just send them an e-mail they will reply litrally as soon as they get it. I live in the united kingdom and average ping from here to germany is 40-50?.. but with vectoral i get a ping of 25-29 even though its still in germany!. They KEEP hops to a minimum!. Payments couldnt be easier they Accept every type of payment avalible.. paypal, googlecheckout, creditcards etc. I orderd my server and on the same day it was online.
I orderd the following spec server:

Intel Pentium 4 2.4Ghz
1GB DDR2 Ram
250GB Sata HDD
Windows 2003 (Originally) But currently having fedora core 4 installed.
3000GB Transfer Per month with convinient rates for over bandwidth usage.

All this for just
$102 Calculated at £50 PCM

Supports are friendly and everything is great.

Yes, live chat could be online 24h a day and nowadays, I got some downtimes, dont know why but Im satisfy with them.

All respect!

@jamap, thank you for your very kind words, we appreciate it!

@zwt, I apologize for any inconvinience caused by the recent downtime, on 23/04/2007 our core router experienced anomalous routing malfunctions at approximately 22:58 GMT. This outage intermittently affected parts of the datacenter. The router was reset and normal network access continued as of 23:36 GMT and the issue has now been isolated and addressed, with normal network access restored. We are working with Foundry engineers to make sure this issue never occurs again.

April 23rd, 2007, 17:17
only thing i cant understand is why use .info as your main domain it makes you look unprofessional but i had a server a week with them and last nights downtime was sorted pretty fast im just waiting for them to get more stock in so i can replace a current server i have with another netdirekt reseller due to poor support

@satan,

I don't know if you realise but we do own all of the following extensions, using info as a main site is a personal decision I have made. Do not hestiate to contact me for further queries.

.com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, .us, .eu, .co.uk, .de and a few more.

No offence but if you own all of tem I think you made a very bad choice
.info is a scarry domain, many scam sites use .info.
.net or the .com would have been a much better choice!
I wish you good luck :)

just a week ago we added 10Gbps Tiscali to our network mix.

And that cost you the grand total of £10?

Adding Tiscali is nothing to be proud of Vectoral, just means your cheap prices are matched by cheap bandwidth providers ;)

But never the less, a very nice and informative post on your part. Welcome to FreeWebSpace

zwt
April 24th, 2007, 08:36
:)

as I know they have Tier-1 bandwith which is a top quality one.

Richard
April 24th, 2007, 08:55
Tiscali is one of the worst providers of Europe, you get what you pay for, and with Tiscali, you don't pay that much, and you don't get much in return. Hardly quality at all.

Vectoral
April 24th, 2007, 10:03
Agreed, Tiscali is not the best - but its good for Scandinavian customers which represent more then %25 percent of our customer-base. :angel:

TaiLZ
April 24th, 2007, 13:30
What about the Warez Customers? 99 Percent?

I have heard alot about Vectoral and "seedboxes"

No offence, but if you want a server to host files, or host a project available to download. Don't bother with Vectoral. The Bandwidth is rubbish.

@Tailzehhhh, we have had a reseller selling on various "warez" forums cleaned out nearly 2 months ago - its old news, we host many opensource projects and sponsor 3 nodes for speedtest.net who don't think our bandwidth is "rubbish" - if you would like a free 7 day trial, just contact me. As always, any comments are fully welcome.

Anyone wanting to test bandwidth can try at http://frankfurt.speedtest.net, we are putting 2 more nodes online as we speak due to the overwhelming number of users in Germany.

Speedtest tells me my download speed exactly rite.. 3980kbps down 384kbps up and im on 4mb/s virginmedia. What hosting company does not have problems with warez?.. The thing that is important is that it gets delt with! Witch it does with vectoral.. Just because you only got 500kbps download from vectoral mirror does not mean anything!.. Maybe your computer was updating?.. maybe you were downloading?... Maybe your just lying because you dont like the vectoral service because you've herd things about them.. dont nock it till you've tried it. I Tried it and i am now with them and will be for the long run!. But please name me a hosting site that has not had a problem with warez.. I'll personally e-mail them and ask because its impossible for a successul hosting company to have not delt with these warez con men. And i dont mean these stuipid little buisnesses that are run by 1 person with an overloaded reseller account brought off ebay!.
Also for people who keep pissing and moaning about vectoral please list some hosts that offer the following:

Take out a support ticket: Its replied to in under 5 minutes
Phone 24/7: Polite, Friendly and helpful 24/7 + Callback
Speed: Extreemly fast setup low cost setup fee $19 MINIMUM $49 at the MOST
Download speed: 10.7Mb/s constant. Testing download speed ( downloading linux ) Tested everyday using different mirrors never dropped in speed.

Im currently having linux installed so server should be fully installed 7.00BST so for anyone who would like a 50MB test file hosted on the server then please P/M me and ill P/M you with the link.

wow, people are winging about the bandwidth mix??
Well, Its the same with FDCservers, If you want large amounts of bandwidth for nothing of course its not going to be the best thats just common logic!

IRC: Vectoral Servers allows the use of internet relay chat servers for communication among parties. IRC servers that result in interference of service, malicious network activity or increased demand on network security services are in direct violation of the acceptable use policy. Violation of the IRC policy will result in methods of resolution under the acceptable use policy.
Cool, whats your ping & speeds like to the usa and australia?

We don't resell for anyone, we own all of our hardware and have our own technical staff onsite 24/7. You can verify this with netdirekt or alternatively check the document they have provided us with - click here (https://www.vectoral.info/document.pdf) to check.

Vectoral,

I am sorry to be the little devil person on this, but that document can easily mean nothing, all it takes is an phone call saying " we don't want them to know we are reseller please write a letter".

Just speculation.

Vectoral
May 26th, 2007, 11:19
@LSComputers, I totally understand what you mean - but if a established datacenter is in the situation of lying for a customer/client I would never work with them personally and I don't think any DC would risk that for one customer/client.

Any one from this forum is welcome to visit the datacenter together with me or a member of my staff between 18th - 21st of October 2007.

Yes, I also saitisfy with their services (I own an Alastyr server which is no more for sale).

For example they do free KVM over IP on demand instead of many providers which offer this service for a high extra fee.

I suggest everybody to buy servers at Vectoral!
