Re: [chiPHPug-discuss] hosting recommendations

[Benjamin H. <ben...@gm...>]

Hurricane Electric is rock solid.  I've used them for years and have no
complaints.
The service is good, but sometimes lack flexibility with their managed
services (e.g. if you need an apache configuration change, they wont do it
if apache needs to be restarted).

Also, http://www.pajunas.com/ is good, located in Minneapolis.  Haven't used
them much, but they cater to developers.

Personally, I took the plunge and colocated a server.  Its much less
expensive for the service, and you have a lot greater flexibility with
hardware and system configuration.

Hope this helps.
