c1vhosting review: not recommended

Calypso

AI kicked in on my VPS... while CPU steal wasn't that bad before, it's now (over the last 19 hours) an average of 40% CPU steal. And never below 25%...

And just to be sure: my VPS was not ordered while there was a mention of "low performance" in the offer.

havoc

sigh...mine broke too

Calypso

VPS has been rebooted - apparantly the "AI" didn't want to look into the source of the CPU Steal and just rebooted the whole host or something...

Added: Apparantly a mail has been sent out:

"We are writing to inform you of an urgent maintenance scheduled for 26 May 2024 to address a server issue affecting VPS performance.
Maintenance Details:
• Date: 26 May 2024
• Time: 15:30 to 16:30 CET
• Estimated Downtime: 45 minutes
During this time, there may be brief service interruptions. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we work to improve your service."

Mail is dated 15:15, however it has only been sent out @16:22... (CET)

Great stuff...

Also "we work to improve your service". It's only getting worse...

My VPS is fine now, but I'm not sure how long it will last.
Hope C1V will fix other VPS and have a brand new week.

@bliss said: @Calin iHostArt has performed it before: At first the VPS was unstable but acceptable considering the price, then with every update or maintenance the VPS got worse in CPU load, traffic speed, uptime, etc, at last the service terminate in advance.

Hello what VPS you have? It's from old deals? Because all VPS what we sell right now it's impossible to meet problems with load , CPU steal , or other things ,single problems what we meet it's network speed

Thanks for replying, your attitude is always good.

Yes, it was "VPS Storage NAT 2" with 50 GB storage, 1 GB memory after being doubled by your kindness for only $5.69 yearly, plus the next-week-delivered IPv6 which never comes.
And one month you said the service would continue in spite of being unstable, then the next month you announced the termination of that in advance.

I'm sorry but it seems C1V is repeating what iHostArt has done:
1. attracting price with acceptable instabilities;
2. endless update or maintenance with the result of worse service quality;
3. service termination in advance.

I'm not complaining here, actually I've been praising C1V and iHostArt for being friendly, kind many times. I know the price of cheap products.

Anyway, my VPS went online again, and I hope everyone has working VPS as well.
Enjoy your weekend.

Not only network. Also power. Very resilient also. Nameservers both in the same /24. And ofcourse the excellent ways of supplying information to customers.

I can feel your disappointment through the sreen.
Mine is about 95% which may be barely usable, while 83.847% is way too disappointing.

Thanks! No servers were down.

No servers were down, they were just unreachable

I should have marked /s for clarity. I was just trying to come out of excuse c1v style that is Tier-3.

Hey, even more downtime! At least this time to managed to send e-mails before the maintenance, but calling this scheduled with 4 hours notice is a fucking joke. Tier-3 design!

We are scheduled to perform an upgrade on our core IP network.

This operation involves adding a VRRP node to the core router infrastructure on our primary router and installing a secondary router to prevent issues like the one that occurred a few days ago. We will provide a post detailing how we handled the situation and the measures we've set to prevent further occurrences.

The maintenance is set to commence on May 29, 2024, at 3:00 PM CEST and will conclude around 8:00 PM CEST. While we anticipate no downtime, you may notice a minor change in routing.

Got the mail too. At least it's more time for the notice as earlier this week when I got the mail 5 minutes before it started.

Anyway, routing was gone short time ago for 5 minutes - so that's already more downtime.

BTW: "Tier 3" usually is only for power and cooling.

"while we anticipate no downtime"

I got about half an hour of downtime (hetrix) in a 2 hour window... 25% downtime is "no downtime" in basement-host lingo right?
