OpenITC – $20/year 256MB SSD OpenVZ, $4.25/month 512MB KVM, and more in Maidenhead, UK

Laputa

Sean, from OpenITC, has sent in some new offers for LowEndBox readers! This time, he sent both OpenVZ and KVM offers. OpenITC have been in business for over 6 years and their company is a registered ‘partnership’ in the UK. They were featured many times before under their subsidiary “XenVZ” and later as OpenITC. XenVZ were first listed in 2008 and, we suspect, once offered the cheapest vps plan ever at the time. Users will use OpenITC’s own custom coded control panel to manage their virtual servers as apposed to the popular SolusVM. KVM users can even use Spice with TLS rather than the relatively insecure VNC. Also, the KVM servers come with two IPv6 /64 subnets. All these servers run on a host node with dual hex core E5-2630s with a battery-backed RAID card and dual power supplies. The OpenVZ offers are hosted on SSD drives. Please leave any reviews or remarks in the comments!

With OpenITC’s panel, you can install any Operating System you like via the recovery console (VNC or Spice with TLS) and you can virtually mount any CD/DVD from a HTTP server, basically allowing you to install any .iso (KVM only). You can also set the disk driver and the network model (KVM only). Whilst it fully supports both IPv4 and IPv6, at present only rDNS on IPv4 addresses can be instantly configured. Cgroups have been fully implemented, allowing OpenITC to control CPU and Disk I/O.
They accept both Paypal & Google Checkout as payment methods and have a 14 day refund policy. As well as allowing VPN and Adult content, IRC is also allowed but only on request. Legal content only.
