As a previous employee, I can definitely say that it depends *a lot* on who you talk to when calling for technical support, as to whether or not you get someone competent.

you get. For the most part we have a good bunch of frontline tech support, but as with any company, some are better than others. As far as what you are looking for, that is important. Our VPS hosting is not true VPS, so while you can do a lot that you can't do in standard shared hosting, such as manage your own mysql or apache settings, you also do not have root access, thus preventing installation of some software, and/or upgrading some existing software. Many things can be worked around if you have time, energy, and smarts to do so. In response to Fozz, starting at 500 pretty pennies/month (1yr signup), yes, we charge a lot of pretty (or ugly, if it suits you) pennies, but I don't think its too bad of a deal, since all but the most lowly packages can ssh in and do what they like to apachae, mysql, etc. And no, I'm no company shill, feel free to ask Haak, or Simpkins about me =-) -Chris /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
