Their prices are too low for me to believe. 4.20 a year? How do they make money? Shouldn't that be the monthly price?

Check out this recent thread (http://www.freewebspace.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21817) and make a decision from that :)

Have a look at http://forums.cyberwings.com . There are a number of threads there where people are concerned about them not charging enough, but their CEO doesn't seem concerned. From here (http://forums.cyberwings.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=719): "Cyberwings is 100% financially stable, else why would I have just hired 2 full time support people to help me cover support while I expand the business?"

You don't get much diskspace though.

I wouldn't be suprised if you see price increases later on though. Resellers arent happy with their low pricing for virtual accounts. I don't blame them (resellers).

the plans are 50% off and they are not going to leave it 50% off forever... think of it this way: if you are getting your own datacenter, would you want
a) a datacenter thats a little bit full & the rest of the resourcse are gettin wasted...
OR
b) a datacenter that if pretty much full & little of the resources are gettin wasted...

they are paying the same amount of money each month soooo if they can get more people by lowering their prices, they'll make more profit than leaving the prices the same and gettin a few people...

You can expect a delay since they say they are pretty busy right now because of the amount of people that signed up for the 50% sale... :eek:

I can't wait to try out their service. :p

Finally! After 4 days of waiting, I have received a confirmation e-mail from Cyberwings containing my account information and stuff. Already changed my DNS, we'll see how it goes. :D

Hey people... they probably are running there service in the third world where everything is cheap... :D

Anyways, remember Myacen offering those super cheap yearly plans... well they got rid of them and went to monthly. That is what I think Cyberwing will do also.
