Reliable VPS hosting based in JHB

[mooij]

Hi everyone.

I'm doing some web dev work for clients in Maun whose main market is people in Botswana. I want to offer them hosting in SA to circumvent the latency caused by the cable in the Atlantic. I've been trying to figure out which party would be most reliable (cost is not really an issue, I'll just charge them), but I can't find any recent reviews.

Can someone recommend me a reliable VPS party in SA?
My requirements:
- No unreasonable overbooking (i.e., 100 vps slices on a machine that can handle only 20).
- Pay today, get it today.
- Debian/Ubuntu linux.
- Unmetered.
- Full root access.
- Basic restore options (safe reboot with root access, reinstall, etc).
- Physical servers in Gauteng.

Thanks in advance.

I've got 2 Windows VPSes and 1 Linux VPS with Afrihost, never really had a problem with them.

Haha, you should search the mybb forums and see how many people had teethless issues with them!

I've heard good things about www.go2cloud.co.za. They do a lot of Windows virtual servers and they can do Linux based images too.

I can only speak for myself. I've never had any issues except for a handful of times when their Bryanston data centre has had connectivity issues.
