You're right. Logic cannot go wrong.

I'm considering moving my web host to Arvixe[^]. Any good or bad stories about this provider?
Thanks,

I currently own or manage six domains with them. They're okay.
Their 24/7 online chat support is severely lacking - I've waited as long as 30 minutes for one of their support people to come on line, and even then, they're mostly useless. If you call instead, you're better off. No real horror stories other than the time they moved my personal site to a new server, and didn't check my configuration before turning it back on.

I have my site and 3 other client sites on a few of their servers with their asp.net pro hosted solutions and they're good.

I switched to Arvixe a while back since they seemed to be doing a decent job hosting paddedwall.org and it always responds nicely. It's worked out good for me, and tech support - the one time it was needed - was very responsive.

They're ok but you'll find your site goes down quite randomly for a few minutes. I have complained and it gets better for a while and then starts again. Considering moving away.

I switched to them about three years ago, and (provided you remember to subscribe to email alerts) I've had few problems - there was a week of daily DDOS attacks which they mitigated pretty quickly each time, and a couple of server upgrades which slowed the email / website down for a couple of hours. The website stopped working completely after one upgrade, but they fixed it by editing my web.config as soon as alerted - the upgraded system had slightly different settings which crashed the site.
Not bad - there are certainly a heck of a lot worse out there for the same money!

Arvixe is excellent. The most surprising thing is that I never had any problem.
When I asked them some questions, they replied me so fast that I wondered how they paid their staff for such small price.
They are really excellent. (by the way, my websites are very low traffic)

I've hosted four ASP.NET sites with them for the past three years. They are OK, I'd give them a 7/10. Support is OK, albeit the wait can be long on the chat and they are not good with complex configuration issues (have to escalate). The higher volume sites crash periodically and I have to restart the app pool. Their shared servers are pretty overloaded (I am on DOCK.arvixe.com), so initial page loads and SQL queries can be mighty slow.
I am thinking of moving my new clients to Mochahost but Mocha does not have a European data center (Arvixe does) -- I have several European clients -- so I am a little torn.

Hello,
I meant to respond sooner and I do apologize for not doing so. In regards to our chat system, the entire system was moved to it's own server as to stop the crashing that was admittedly occurring. Unfortunately if you are running a higher volume site, your needs are exceeding what the shared server was meant for initially, or at least the Personal Class version. Depending on the traffic (which you stated is high volume), I'd recommend a Business Class server as there are less users so the strain is far less than the Personal Class.
Lastly, the Dock server is one of the older servers and is based here in the U.S. . That being said, we now have servers located in the EU that may benefit you and your clients far more than the one you are currently on.
If you have any questions whatsoever, please feel free to contact us at support [at] arvixe.com or QA [at] Arvixe.com and myself or one of my colleagues would be more than happy to assist you with any issues or inquiries you may have. Thank you for your time and have a great day.

I had some problems with them:
SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services) account expired several times and the reports stopped working and that is bad for business. SSRS is not a common need for websites but the point is how much can you trust them to support your client's business.
Also I had some problems with server upgrades that did not keep compatible configurations.
Also 2 years ago or so, support was much better.

Hello,
I apologize for the frustration caused. When we do upgrades of any kind, we send out notices (usually a few) ahead of time to assure that our customers know what is to occur and what precautions or steps needed to be taken on their behalf to assure they and their clients have enough time to make whatever changes need to be made. We are upgrading all our Windows Servers to the 2012 version, so there may be aspects that become outdated, but we always try to accommodate as best as we can for those customers running older versions of software.
If you are having any issues please feel free to contact our support team at support[at]arvixe.com or our Quality Assurance team at qa[at]arvixe.com and we'll gladly see what can be done to accommodate your situation. Thank you for your time.

I've used Arvixe for a ASP .NET hosting for a couple of years with pretty good success, and similar marginal service experience as already mentioned. I can add, that I’ve had a terrible time with secure FTP. I access Arvixe servers with FTPES using FileZilla. It is intermittent, and completely fails every few months. It will take me about two weeks of service attempts to reach someone who will acknowledge the problem. Once Arvixe does acknowledge the problem, they can clear up quickly, however this painful cycle repeats it self.
