So I am looking at a hosting company and data centre choice for a dedicated server and I would really like some recommendations.

This is for one of my clients, they are currently using Afrihost and the server is at IS. The server has been very solid because the IS data centre seems pretty reliable. But at some stage Afrihost will move this server to MTN data centre.

My first choice is Hetzner because of their brilliant service. Afrihost is a no no because the MTN data centre is not realiable and their service is shocking.

But I have 3 of my servers already at Hetzner and I sync backups between physical locations. Is IS the way to go and if so which company could I go through. I'd rather pay more and get something reliable.

Thanks in advance.
 
Just stick with Hetzner when it comes to dedicated servers, they are in their own league.
 
Was with Afrihost for years with colocation at IS Rosebank. Reliability always an issue with poor support always escalated to IS. Moved to Hetzner 2 months ago and am very pleased with the results. Much better latency and general service is excellent . Will see in 6 mths but I am very happy
