conclusions and assessments on the level of Serverweb.net

Introduction

ServerWeb.net is a relatively young company in the world of webhosting, born as a brand of EOS Net Ltd, the company's history Milan leads in front of a group of IT professionals who have decided to join forces to launch a quality label in the hosting industry.

No wonder you find behind the brand ( NOTE: replaced within the staff ) Cristiano Gatti, webhosting entrepreneur who, after having created and sold a successful company, decided to joining Eos Net services to enrich the company with the vision and experience of those who worked at the dawn of sector.

WebServer is specialized in solutions professional hosting, reselling and supply of VMware virtual environments, but the company also provides a lowcost plan costing 23 euros per year.
The company has made a big initial investment to acquire an infrastructure cluster, with which it handles all the hosting solutions from lowcost professional service, unusual choice and great value added , as we see later in the review.

These standard resources for the installation of CMS most common and the maintenance of small sites.
plans are not enabled on individual servers, but within a structure in cluster solution used by the company for all their plans in shared hosting.
After completing the review we asked the company as is the host of these plans and what precautions are taken to the server load, publish the response we received via email:

is no reason numbers at both sites but occupied resources. If on a machine for example, 10 business sites already employ a load of us decided a priori that it is up 1.5 (load) about, that car will no longer be populated by new sites
Ditto for low cost. If, however, on a machine with 250 sites is at 0.8% load, then go ahead and post more.
When the load goes out of policy, migrated some domain from one server to another without asking anything to the customer because the migration is internal and not notice anything. But if the problem is a misconfigured site (script hexose resources why not optimized), we write to customers asking them to fix the situation.


connectivity and uptime shared hosting plan Serverweb.net

ServerWeb.net relies on the webfarm Kpnqwest of Milan, one of the most popular data center, inside the company has of racks with dual power supply and access to multiple carriers for network connectivity, a solution that explains the excellent performance accessible on the front of connectivity.

We started to monitor the plan ServerWeb.net on May 2, 2009 and concluded on September 26, 2009 through the monitoring Pingdom.com, obtaining a value of 99.88% uptime, a good result positioning our lowcost plan with a nearly 3 hours of downtime in over 4 months of testing.

***** our note: we can not understand how it is possible uptime so shameful.
We have checked the history of the machine down (not hardware) and there is, as notified on our forum, a
down that server, the 22/05 (link) and 19 / 9 (link).
. An Apache
down and down a ping server to move from one node to another node.
I would not want that there had been a ban of some IP Pingdom since we can not find a valid explanation.
Especially for a down network of 2 hours ... very high ..

equally good latency found, we speak of an average server response of 106 ms, with a peak of 82 ms minimum and a maximum of 146 ms, among the lowest values that the drafting of HostingTalk. it has found the evidence of a shared hosting solution, always bearing in mind that the check is run every minute from most continents.

Ping performed by a ADSL wholesale Telecom Italy found a latency ranging from 54 to 59 m s, more than acceptable. Download, with a 50 MB file we reached 600 Kbit / s also through the connection of an ADSL residential wholesale.

Assistance Serverweb.net

Serverweb.net provides assistance via chat, email, tickets, forum and telephone. If the plan
lowcost we do not have phone support but a very clear page of the website of the company (http://www.serverweb.net/supporto-faq.php) clarifies exactly what the procedures and response time of the .

The company claims to provide a complete human and automatic control on their servers, so you instantly check any anomalies.
To test the service we have opened a ticket for generic request to add the MySQL database to a file. Sql 10 MB: We have not intentionally provided any explanation to the company, and we have indicated the inability to perform the following & # 8217; operation through time.

The opening of the ticket, at 18:46 of Saturday, September 18 , response we received at 18:59 hours, 15 minutes away accurate: the media, suggested to us to proceed via phpMyAdmin, the second ticket, with our explanation of the inability due to a timeout phpMyAdmin, we received the full support of the assistance, along with a response that has particularly pleased and we report Following :

ticket_hosting_supporto

One explanation surprised us and showed us a lot of clarity and professionalism by the company. As specified

lowcost service provides the user with all the tools needed to work in complete independence, assistance is then provided a first response indicative of the tools available to us, with details of the procedure.
be noted that the media has taken measures to identify the database and data access to it by the installation of Joomla this account, specifically omitted data from us to see what was the behavior of & # 8217; assistance.

With a reply by 15 minutes and a ticket to our professional behavior, we feel we can fully recommend this hosting plan, whose standard of service in helping is well above the category membership and usually present plans for the cost of which rises a few hundred Euros.

software and control panel cPanel
Just after registration and payment of our space receive a series of emails that we provide all the explanations and data access plan : l ' activation was mostly immediately, we received all within minutes of payment (made through PayPal ) and email sent contains all data for the panel access and management of the site even if the domain is still active.
The choice of webserver on the control panel, fell on the popular cPanel , the panel that there is fully translated into Italian and it is now easy to move between the various options , a classic This product has opted for a t Serverweb.net emplate very simple since it is installed cPanel , perhaps with the idea that the plan is intended, in fact, people who do not always have had to deal with a webhosting service. From the panel can do almost everything, a very practical way to make sure that you do not need to contact the support center every little change or need.
The webserver is available on our installation Apache 2.2.10, PHP version 5.2.6 and MySQL version 5.0.81 . We have 6
total mailboxes, FTP accounts and up to 3 activated, more than enough considering that the plane can accommodate only one domain name and has a total of 500 MB disk space. The plan proved
is already configured to accommodate the major CMS like Joomla or Drupal, in our case we chose to install Joomla , leaving in production for as long as necessary to the test.

Stress testing webserver
Being an entry level hosting plan we decided to try a typical installation of Joomla , with a site already running, and on it we ran the stress test the webserver via the open source software Siege. We decided to simulate the presence of 50 and 100 on the site with their results to show:

Siege-t10M-i-c50-d30 (50 concurrent users)

In both cases we found no such delays prevent us from shipping, with 100 test users has made navigation less fluid but always possible.
conclusions and assessments on the level of Serverweb.net

Proof of entry-level hosting plan Serverweb.net us no way satisfied, it is a very solid solution, based on a structure cluster and managed so as to enable the user to work freely on their website without worrying about configurations or problems with the web space. The cost is very low, 23 Euro per year for hard to find in an Italian web hosting plan managed through a structure in cluster and a response time of less than 15 minutes assistance.
The varied menu of cPanel, we realize that nothing could make it appear that an entry-level plan, but the cost and the strong statement of the company, which in stresses the importance of each step is a plan "cheap."
choice, the latter, we understand very little and that is the ' only downside, not just to customers, but for the company : The plan has proven benefits that could take it well beyond the annual fee required, however ServerWeb.net it apart from the rest of his plans marking it as "cheap" , and thus potentially removing a good user base that could be satisfied by the offer. Nothing to say about
connectivity and support for the latter we were quite surprised by the response received, far from the usual messages "presets" which are often found in a hosting lowcost , would also be desirable for a speedy execution of the request to the first message of the ticket, but this was our fault, l & # 8217; assistance Serverweb.net fact clearly document all that you can do and can not do through the control panel cPanel.
