Are there any bad Data Centers?

[hosterooni]

Just curious if anyone knew of any bad data centers? It almost seems like an oxymoron to me.

I think you can have that problem with any Datacenter, it may not be with you but with other people.


DedicatedNow, ServerBeach. Theplanet, Servermatrix double billed me once. Errors happen.

Good point, errors do happen but you would think that these companies would have gotten it right by now.

Nope never have and never well TR... I remember a few compaines charging me and saying they never charged me when I even faxed them the copy oh well you live and learn and use ChargeBacks wisely

TheReason, errors don't come by itself, they are just coincidences. Guess companies do put alot of efforts for errors not to happen.

Oh, there are plenty of bad data centers. If uptime and reliability are important to you, you should have a lot of questions before choosing a data center.

I must say that Managed.com was a horrible datacenter when I was with them. Their uptime was ridiculous and their support was extremely slow. Then, get this, they billed me for another month on my server 15 days after I cancelled my server. They even replied to my cancellation request saying they deleted all my server info. Just my 2¢

It really depends on what you want to spend. You can easily drop hundreds a month on a small server with almost no bandwidth at rackspace. The management of a DC also directly reflects on the quality of service. When selecting a datacenter it is important to see what type of equipment they have for emergencies and if they have ever had to use it.

I have been pretty have with ev1 while I have been using them. They have had their glitches but really in the human world what is perfect? I think for the price they are a good value. They also have a very reliable network with plenty of bw unlike other providers *cough* SM that wait a little longer before upgrading.
