I've been fighting with [some host] for weeks trying to get more than 1-sentence answer out of support for help. [some other host] is a bit more responsive, but they are a little slow for me and not a VPS. Then Rimu? I signed up, and in the "comments" box mentioned what I planned on doing with the VPS... 20mins later I get a personalized email from [one of our support staff] saying he has *already set everything up*. It just about blew my mind. You have managed to run the company in such a manner that it is growing, but the quality isn't going to hell in a hand basket.

The X7DCL-i dual
Xeon motherboard.
  • Replacement hardware on hand.
  • 100Mbps connections.
  • Latest hardware (because we enjoy having new gear as much as our customers do).
  • RAID as standard (most hosts try to sell non-RAID protected servers, it is just plain crazy to trust your data on those servers).

Hassle-free at 3AM

Downtime never occurs
at a good time.

Let RimuHosting
deal with it.

"Help I can't access my server!" It happens to the best of us.  You may have firewalled yourself out of the server.  Or made a networking config error.  Or messed up a kernel upgrade.  Or sometimes the hardware just fails.

With many dedicated server providers you would need to fix the problem 'blind'.  For example instructing data center staff command-by-painful-command what to do to get the server back up and running.

Some dedicated server providers may offer KVM access.  But even then recovery can be slow (as you may need to request reboots, or rescue CDs).

And invariably the server fails when you least want it to (3AM is a popular time).  And when you're nowhere near any internet access.

At RimuHosting we do things a little differently.

We monitor the physical servers we host.  If the server goes down, we investigate.  We reboot them if necessary.  We replace any failed hardware.  If there is a problem with the machine starting up normally, we get in and fix it.  We let you know when there is a problem.  And when we've fixed it.  And we keep you updated during that process.

If you prefer to be asleep at 3AM, get a RimuHosting dedicated server.
