Is 1&1 VPS hosting good?

    Hello i will probably be updating my website to vps at some stage, So I was looking around for a couple of days to find the best moderate priced vps. I looked at host gator first but there LV3 plan is dear for me and lv1 -2 are unmanaged and i want a fully managed vps. My latest look for a great vps brought me to 1&1 hosting. There priced over $20 which is fine for me, and i sent them an email asking to see if there vps plans were fully managed or unmanaged, they said they were fully managed.

    Does anyone have any experience with 1&1 vps hosting, please let me know, thanks

    I only have experience with their shared hosting but I can say it is very good so I imagine the VSP would be the same.

    I don't suggest 1&1 ... i had some bad experience from their support department.

    If your looking for worthwhile vps' go to http://rapidvps.com

    Even though costly, they are rock solid.

    regards,
    Ryan

    I have heard mixed reviews about them. If I were you, I would pay more attention to their bad reviews.
    Why do you think they are the best for you? As far as I know they are located in UK. Do you have your target audience in UK?

    Every provider will have their positive/negative feedbacks, just make sure you do a detailed search and see if they fit your needs.
