Dan is correct. I am a Verio reseller and have been using their products since the turn of the century. The VPS product is excellent. I use if for all my own personal stuff. The MPS is also an excellent option if you outgrow the VPS. Speaking of Backup's. Verio machines 3 forms of redundant backup that come standard with their systems. I have used them on several occasions and been very grateful for them. This is one reason I have not switched to other providers. Honest, even if you do not use my services, you owe it to yourself to check out Verio products.
