In2net Review

There are lots of companies and small businesses that do not have their own servers to run and manage their website because these servers require a lot of maintenance and powerful specifications are needed to handle large amounts of traffic and bandwidth. Other companies may not have the space to store these services so they would look for a web hosting solution instead. To suit high amounts of bandwidth and better security, dedicated servers are the way to go and those on a tight budget can go for the virtual private servers. Larger IT companies can make use of collocation services if they cannot have their own local data center. In2net hosting provides all of these three solutions in friendly packages.

About In2net Hosting

In2net was launched in 1996 and since then has been offering upstanding hosting solutions. It cooperates with other IT companies providing them with all the infrastructure and support that will add connectivity to their business. Their location (in Burnaby, Brish Columbia, Canada, just east of Vancouver) explains the support of Vancouver collocation.

Pros

Affordability and flexibility define this hosting solution as each package contains several sub-packages where customers can easily adjust the type of server for their business. The most common choice for IT businesses which are the dedicated servers comes in several flavors with the most affordable being the budget package which has system specs similar to an average desktop unit and has 300 GB bandwidth and 2 IPs to offer on a Plesk or Ensim Control Panel interface. The setup fee and 9 monthly fee is pretty reasonable and the prices upscale appropriately with the higher specs. Windows Server 2003 solutions are also offered.
The virtual private server is intended for people who want to combine affordability with the benefits of dedicated servers, such a s root access. Actually, the cheapest package starts at .95 a month if paid annually and offers similar scaling sub-packages in both Plesk and cPanel. What makes these affordable packages remarkable is that the speed and performance aren’t sacrificed, which makes it perfect for hosting highly active sites. With uninterrupted power sources, their uptime is also very good. Finally, the collocation offerings are attractive and honestly deliver with speedy network and processing speeds.

Cons

Those that have unmanaged plans won’t get the full customer support benefits as the response times can be a bit delayed. Still, no major issues with regard to support surface, especially when the low cost packages are in question.
In2net is not only a hosting provider, but can be considered a good IT partner as its reliability and features allow to handle many different types of hosting solutions. Even though they don’t excel in customer support, In2net remains a good solution for those who need a reliable and first of all affordable hosting.

In Summary, In2net is not on my Top 10 vps list yet, maybe very soon though
