I’ve been using vpsFarm for just over a year now so I thought it was time to post a new review. It’s is a self-managed service, so the most important criteria (IMO) are reliability and performance. Overall, I’m satisfied.

I’ve been using their "xen1024" plan (40$/month, 1MB RAM, 40 GB disk) and I’m using CentOS. Reliability has been good. There have been 3 periods of down-time in the last year, none much more than an hour, and none in the last 4 months. I would prefer no down time at all, but even Gmail has been down more than that in the last year. The only reliability issues I have now are actually from my separate DNS provider (domainpeople.com).

The performance was okay but a bit rocky in the first couple months. When I contacted them about this they informed me they were looking into replacing a spotty network card they were using. I presume they replaced it, because within a week I noticed that the average page download improved by over 60% and problems with the occasional dropped connection disappeared. The site currently handles 100-250 thousand HTTP requests a day without any noticeable problems.

As for support, the few email contacts I’ve had with vpsFarm have been properly dealt with within 24 hours, and sometimes within a few hours.

The true test, however, is would I use vpsFarm again for additional service or would I recommend them to someone else with similar needs (i.e., basic, self-managed, VPS)? Currently, I would say, yes.
