- cstejerean 17y agoIf you want a VPS you should check out SliceHost.
- ahi 17y agoRackSpace has turned SliceHost into a dead man walking. Linode has better pricing and a real future.
- masomenos 17y agoDo you have any specifics, or is this just mud slinging? Longtime slicehost customer here, haven't seen any negative impact from the acquisition.
- danieldon 17y agoSee these for reference: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1132138 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1132138 http://journal.uggedal.com/vps-performance-comparison http://journal.uggedal.com/vps-performance-comparison http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=966555 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=966555 http://journal.dedasys.com/2008/11/24/slicehost-vs-linode http://journal.dedasys.com/2008/11/24/slicehost-vs-linode Still, Slicehost is certainly one of the best VPS providers.
- nitrogen 17y agoThanks for that list. The second link was particularly useful.
- pavs 17y agoNot negative impact. I think his comment "dead man walking" was referring to the fact that they are less likely to innovate or make big changes to improve. There is always room for improve. Simple put, there are not the best VPS solution any more. But they are definitely one of the best. Others have caught up and in some cases surpassed slicehost, while Slicehost more or less stayed the same, they don't feel compelled to innovate or compete in terms of price and features. Rackspace dictates the terms. I am a former Slicehost customer. It was simply put the best hosting solution I ever had. If I were looking for a VPS solution now, there are other good or even better solution out there.
