I have sites hosted with CFDynamics (BACFUG), HostMySite (several), GoDaddy (TICA-MP) and CrystalTech (scazu). GoDaddy is exactly what you'd expect for a rack 'em high, sell 'em cheap service (i.e., useless unless you know exactly what you are doing and have fairly minimal needs). CFDynamics is new to me and I was not thrilled with how they handled the changeover from the previous UG manager to me, nor how they set up a DSN (or failed to). We'll see how they do long term. HostMySite has always been very good to me. I've used their shared Linux plan for a good long while and was very happy with it in general - and their support is excellent. I have a number of sites running there, mostly on shared hosting but a couple are on VPS. My site is now using their VPS CF Linux plan and that is really, really good. My site gets overrun with traffic every now and then - badly behaved spiders and heavy spam attacks - but it's easy to restart the VPS and be back in business (the traffic patterns are why they took me off the shared plan). CrystalTech is OK but I'm not exactly thrilled with them. They haven't screwed up but they're not stellar either. The Scazu site was on their "semi-dedicated" plan but it was slow and it was down more than I liked so we switched to a standard shared plan (much cheaper) and it's actually been better than the semi-dedicated plan. I've also had very good dealings with EDGE Web Hosting (so far just a bid process - but if their service post-purchase is even half as professional as their service pre-purchase, they'll be great to work with!). -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| CF 8 â Scorpio beta now available, easily build great internet experiences â Try it now on Labs http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs_adobecf8_beta Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:283802 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
