I like Slicehost. I have tried Joyent and it's good but you have to learn a bunch of Solaris skills and many gems don't work quite right on Solaris, and I've tried Engineyard but nobody will return my emails to set up an account.

Slicehost has never done anything but offer consistent, professional service. I could not recommend them more highly.




the benefit of engineyard is that you don't have to administer the server. Engineyard is not cheap though.


I know the benefits, they just don't seem to be accepting new business now or over the past few months.


Hmm, that's odd. We got three slices in early May and it took them 4 days to get us up and running. I have nothing but fantastic things to say about EngineYard. Worth every penny.


Everyone says the service is great, but I have filled out the web form twice and no response.


my experience with them hasn't been great. They caused our site downtime on numerous occasions due to oversights on their part.
