GreenKVM reviews , opinions anyone?

cybertech

They have some interesting offerings in APAC, and was wondering how they fare as a provider , and how their services perform in general.

Since it's a yearly commitment, i can't do the usual hit and run tests.

Some benches would be nice as always

It reminds me Greenvaluehost

It looks like another brand of GreenCloudVPS. I've been using them for a little more than 6 months. The support is Vietnam based, fast and friendly. The performance is not amazing but OK considering the price and location. Overall satisfaction 9/10.

I run one in a DB cluster for less than a month. Limited experience to draw on, but so far no downtime, performance good.

I have one of their Singapore storage KVMs (200GB storage/1TB Gbit BW/Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 v2 @ 2.50GHz). Works as expected, support is quite fast/prompt and for a storage KVM it works well within my expectations and I can recommend them.

Here's a quick benchmark:
