Versio CloudBox

This website is hosted on a Virtual Machine provided by Versio.

Pros:

  • very cheap - only € 9.99 for a machine with 1 CPU, 1 GB ram and 100 GB storage
  • nearly complete control over the machine - root access, remote console
  • very fast - I didn't do any measurements but it's definitely faster than my old PriorWeb shared hosting

Cons:

  • poor uptime - less than 99.9% according to my Pingdom reports: stats
  • machine templates - it is not possible to do a fresh install from an ISO file (but luckily there are lots of good templates)
  • formatting a disk manually instead of using the CloudBox manager is not recommended, you won't be able to backup an ext4 filesystem for example
