Rackspace Cloud Reviews
I moved to rackspace about a year ago and have not regretted it since. It has alot of things that i wanted and wished i could do for a good low price the fit my needs and if i need more space or more ram i just send in a request and it will happen asap. I wrote a review here once before about my service with 1and1 and how they screwed me over, well nothing like this has happened to me at all. The sign up process is pretty straight forward in the face that you register online or you can call to sign up and when you are signing up you are given chance to select which services you want to use. Do not worry you will not be charged for selecting cloud servers or files. you are only charged for what you use so if you create a server and shut it down in an hour no worries you are only billed for that usage.
When you need help you get just as much help from them over the internet as you do through phone support. There staff has some strong points and some not so strong points but they do not guarantee or claim to be experts. They will point you to other sites for info or ask there other co workers around.
I took a big leap when i chose to go with there cloud servers instead of cloud sites. Cloud servers is pretty much a blank slate they supply the hardware and os but as far as the web server, database, mail, etc that is all up to you. If you choose there cloud sites option then they do everything except maintain your sites look and content. But that comes at a big cost as well. There cloud files is by far one of my favorite things. You get a big companies needs and hardware but at a low cost. My cdn is roughly about 1-5 dollars a month.
I would recommend this to anyone as there are very good guides on the internet about setting up a webserver as well the rackspace team is there 24/7 to help you. I took the challenge and now have a quick and responsive server that i can update add to or remove certain features as well as tweak settings. I have also learned quite a bit to.
