    I am looking for a VPS but I am stuck between two options Liquid Web and Servint. Both are great from what I've heard but just not sure which one to choose. From what I am seeing Servint has more options, which one do you guys thing is the better host?

    I have to be honest, I have not used either host. However based on my experience over the years and support I see on twitter, etc. I would go with liquidweb.

    Liquidweb is better. They also offer managed services and have been around a bit longer.
    They also have some positive reviews around the web.

    I have a client that uses servint but I would lean towards liquid also for managed services.

    I recently chose to go with ServInt over Liquidweb and though it's early days I've found them to be really good so far. The support is top notch. ServInt comes out to be a bit cheaper at similar service levels than Liquidweb. While Liquid has the better brand name, I have heard recently that their customer service levels have declined a bit, while ServInt have been very helpful and accomodating so far.

    I've noticed that ServInt support is better than Liquid Web, I tested both out and ServInt's support to be quick and great while Liquid Web's support took a long time to answer my questions. So far am more feeling for ServInt but am still considering Liquid Web.

    servints solution to unexplained loads/bot traffic continually upgrade. switched providers and fixed issue myself, now pay less than a 1/3 of servint.
    servint was great besides their repeated mantra of upgrade instead of fix the problem. now nothing loads on my servint vps, not one single site yet loads are still high. to top if off i cancelled with about 20 days left on my prepayed service because their managed service didnt fix the problem. their response demands i pay for an extra 10 days

    Liquidweb is a popular company. But their prices are not affordable for me. I haven't heard about servint before.

    What about Media Temple guys, heard that they are even better and looking at their prices I could have a few.

    I’ve used both LiquidWeb and Servint. I’ve found ServInt to be more reliable and helpful with their support

    I've noticed that Servint's support is better but from looking at some of their plans I also see that they are a bit better than liquid web
