Migrating 47 cPanel sites without paying JetBackup tax · Web Hosting

lucgone said:

cPanel is too much expensive now, franchement

Sí, estoy de acuerdo. I manage 4 servers and the cPanel license is now more than the hardware in Madrid. We use DirectAdmin for new clients, the migration from cPanel works okay for accounts without complex DNS.

Who is the most underrated provider you have actually used? · General Discussion

@olya you make good point but o sea, Oracle free tier is not underrated if everyone knows it, no? 😊

My underrated pick: RackNerd. I used them to make a server up for my cousin in Valencia. Cheap ARM, no IPv4 but tunnel works fine. Support is one guy named Sven. Very Sven.
