Summary of a review onRedditr/HostingNov 10, 2026Mixed

Used a series of Liquid Web dedicated servers for 18 years and is moving on, citing outdated hardware, cPanel price rises and doing more maintenance with an AI assistant than with their support.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 8, 2026Positive

Has run a VPS on Leaseweb infrastructure through a reseller and reports no problems with it.

Summary of a review onRedditr/hetznerNov 8, 2026Mixed

Hit a ghost keyboard input problem installing an OS through Hetzner's KVM on a dedicated server. Support swapped the KVM, which partly fixed it, though a USB image error remained and they finished the install another way.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 8, 2026Mixed

Has been a Leaseweb customer since 2019. Finds it never the cheapest but consistently better on support response and assistance, which matters for their business.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 8, 2026Negative

Says Leaseweb is raising prices and that support is poor, and is migrating away from it.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 5, 2026Negative

Is moving a 100-site plan away from Nexcess after a year of decline: the price rose from $638 to $849 a month with no added benefits, PHP patching took over a day with little communication, and the included CDN and automatic updates did not work reliably. Says the speeds are still great but would not recommend it.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 4, 2026Negative

Has a dedicated server with Liquid Web bought in 2024 and was told it would rise about 51% on 17 days notice. The old price can only be kept by paying twelve months up front, which they find hard to afford as a self-employed customer.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 3, 2026Negative

Was a Liquid Web customer for close to a decade and had several frustrating support experiences. When the renewal email threatened a 12% increase unless a one-year commitment was signed, it confirmed the decision to move to another host.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 3, 2026Mixed

Got the same Liquid Web renewal email but their increase is only 5% on a good original deal. Notes the price freeze now requires paying twelve months up front instead of monthly, and they do their own monitoring and troubleshooting anyway.

Summary of a review onRedditr/webhostingNov 2, 2026Negative

Was with Liquid Web from the start and left two years ago. Says the company went from a favourite to one that made them sick after the private-equity buyout, and recommends looking elsewhere.

Summary of a review onRedditr/WordpressOct 22, 2026Negative

Left Liquid Web over poor service and saved $100/month with a DigitalOcean droplet and RunCloud.

Summary of a review onRedditr/WordpressOct 14, 2026Negative

Has been migrating sites off their Liquid Web hosting for the last few months and plans to cut ties as soon as possible.

Summary of a review onRedditr/OVHcloudOct 9, 2026Negative

A RISE-S dedicated server had a faulty RAM module corrupting memory, and standard support would not replace it without a pricey 12-month support upgrade that wouldn't cover the weekend anyway.

Summary of a review onRedditr/hetznerOct 6, 2026Positive

Moved dedicated servers from OVH, IONOS and Arsys to Hetzner and calls the flexibility the best decision in over 20 years.

Summary of a review onRedditr/hetznerOct 6, 2026Negative

Finds Hetzner support not useful and only contacts it to request a KVM.

Summary of a review onRedditr/hetznerOct 5, 2026Negative

Hetzner price increases made dedicated servers ridiculously expensive, about 5x before.

Summary of a review onRedditr/hetznerOct 5, 2026Positive

Hetzner dedicated servers are still cost efficient for long-held servers, but new VMs are not.

Hetzner Server Auction

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 29, 2026Positive

Got a 256 GB auction server with lots of disks for 130 euros a month and runs Proxmox on it.

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 29, 2026Negative

Quit Hetzner dedicated servers over what they consider ridiculous setup fees and uncompetitive pricing.

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 26, 2026Negative

A 2022 server was throttled from 100 Mbps to 10 Mbps with no explanation, so they cancelled it and will not return.

Summary of a review onRedditr/hetznerSep 25, 2026Positive

With 3 Hetzner servers and 3 elsewhere for redundancy, Hetzner uptime is about 100 percent over two years.

Summary of a review onRedditr/sysadminSep 16, 2026Negative

OVH raised the price by 47% a month after the provisioning fee was paid.

Summary of a review onRedditr/homelabSep 15, 2026Negative

A company had to move all international customers from OVH to AWS because of kernel panics, flaky connectivity and unhelpful support; Email Pro tasks got stuck for hours or days and API changes broke automation without notice.

Summary of a review onRedditr/OVHcloudSep 15, 2026Positive

Longtime customer since 2015 and hardware provisioning has always completed within minutes to a few hours alongside fast tech support.

Summary of a review onRedditr/ShittySysadminSep 15, 2026Positive

Nearly a decade on a personal dedicated server went smoothly across multiple plan swaps and hardware migrations.

Summary of a review onRedditr/sysadminSep 15, 2026Negative

Paid in full for an OVH dedicated server in Singapore, but nothing was delivered for 40 days with no updates.

Summary of a review onRedditr/sysadminSep 15, 2026Positive

Seven years leasing bare metal at OVH Quebec; any problem gets solved with a quick ticket or chat.

Summary of a review onRedditr/sysadminSep 15, 2026Mixed

Nearly ten years on OVHcloud: the service works and hardware issues get handled, despite slow management site and opaque monitoring.

Summary of a review onRedditr/sysadminSep 15, 2026Positive

Used OVH dedicated servers since 2011, up to 40+ nodes, and calls them pretty solid apart from lead times.

Summary of a review onRedditr/sysadminSep 15, 2026Mixed

Has also waited long for OVH servers in the past, but still thinks they are Europe's best dedicated server provider.

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 14, 2026Negative

Low prices are tempting, but personal experience across their hosting services has been the worst.

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 14, 2026Positive

They went with OVH for several bare metal servers (SYS-1 at $30 a month) and found DDOS protection good and support good so far, though NVMe stock is harder to find.

Cherry Servers

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 14, 2026Positive

They have used Cherry Servers for a while and found the value pretty good for bare metal.

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 14, 2026Positive

Very happy with Leaseweb as a provider; also suggests OVH Kimsufi and SoYouStart offers and Hetzner server auction deals as alternatives.

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 13, 2026Mixed

Kimsufi

They used Kimsufi for their lab for a few months with no issues, but region availability was poor, they waited about a week for 3 servers, and there is no private network or BMC.

Cherry Servers

Summary of a review onRedditr/VPSSep 7, 2026Positive

They say Cherry Servers has been reliable for their team.
