If you’re using Rogers, you get everything you deserve
TL;DR: If you want a good provider, go with ovh. Been there for wel over a decade with one time a bare metal server dying at worst, and great customer support. Pay over twice less for well over twice more. A single 250 dollar/month bare metal server got us close to the same amount of hardware resources as over 10,000 dollar in cloud servers and services at Rogers. AND THEY STAY UP.
The company I work at currently had everything at Rogers and FFS, it is the worst. Provider. Ever.
The rage inducing amount of down time we’ve had with these fuckers was just impressive. Think up times of ~90% and the rest is fuck you because fuck you.
Oopsies, we killed this one server which caused filesystem damage? Well sucks to be you because whether you’re an enterprise level customer or just a personal idiot that chose Rogers, you’ll be fucked the same either way.
Seriously, over a single year I’ve easily had well over 12 complete down incidents that lasted over 30 minutes
I’ve been working hard to get this company to switch to ovh and we finally started moving some infrastructure to OVH
I didn’t even know Rogers offered hosting. Why anyone would buy hosting from a residential ISP, I have no idea. OVH shouldn’t even be a competitor, they’re a datacenter company, not an ISP (they probably have service contracts with multiple backbone providers that are only available in datacenter hubs, which are orders of magnitude more reliable).
