Detailed Forex Robot VPS Hosting Review | |||||||||
I have no personal experience with this company however the CEO of ForexVPS Jeff Moncrief got in touch with Bill and agreed to conduct an interview. So as an exception this time I post our interview instead of review here. I hope it will be helpful for you if you don't mind.
Jeff, please tell us more about your company? Are you regulated? Where are the servers located? When did you start to work online? Is it reliable?
Virtuozzo vps was started by a group of seasoned veterans in the hosting industry that saw a need for Forex traders around the world to have a hosting service that catered specifically to their needs only ... and so ForexVPS was born. ForexVPS allows Forex Traders to do what they do best: make Forex Trades. We wanted to give Forex Trader a reliable platform they could access 24 hours a day without having to worry about the technology. ForexVPS is not a broker or an IB, so we have no need to be regulated. We are totally independent. Our servers are located in Atlanta, USA (Georgia State). We actually own this data enter, we are not resellers unlike a lot of hosting companies. We have been in business for 2 years.
Do you provide preinstalled metatraders?
Yes, we do provide metatrader preinstalled and more than 30 other choices available from our download area. More are being added as we learn of them or on request of customers
What are the advantages of using your service?
The advantages of using our services are:
(a) 99.99% uptime (That is 53 minutes downtime a year) (most only offer 99.9% uptime, which is 8.8 hours of downtime in a year)
(b) Freedom to install any EA and the ability to use any choice of broker.
(c) Access to an in house MetaTrader expert.
(d) Very low latency to brokers (8 ms to ItradeFX for example, compared to 130 ms if you used a home broadband connection.) Lower latency means orders get to the broker faster.
(e) 24/7 support via email and live chat. All staff are trained in MetaTrader and can help with EA's etc
(f) You can run as many platforms and EA's as you wish. The only limit on how much memory is chosen. For example no point installing 9 metatraders on the $35 plan as it would run out of memory, but if the Ultimate plan was chosen that will not be an issue.
Why is your service so expensive comparing to other similar services?
We are not expensive compared to other services. Our prices start from $35 a month.Here are some prices for the competition for similar services: Forex Hoster - $69.95; Commercial Network Services - $65 Most people are not aware, but a lot of companies oversell their host server (a host server is used to hold all the VPS's). A typical example is buying a Host Server with a low amount of RAM and stuffing say 40 VPS's on each Host Server.
Assuming each VPS is "sold" with 512 RAM. The host server requires a minimum of 20 GB ram to guarantee each VPS gets 512 ram. A lot of companies cheat by only getting a server with 10 GB ram and still put 40 VPS on each server, therefore people who buy the VPS really only get half of what they paid for, although they might not be aware of it. As you can guess, this means a significant performance hit. ForexVPS does not do that.

Another example is buying a host server with low speciation processor's and if one person uses a lot of CPU time everyone else's VPS will be "slow". virtuozzo vps only puts 20 VPS's on each server, guaranteeing everybody exactly what they pay for, and the ability to upgrade without affecting anybody else. With ForexVPS here is the minimum specification of each of our Hardware Server's for VPS's:
(a) Intel Xeon X5460 Harpertown 3.16GHz LGA 771 120W Quad-Core Processor (we got 4 of these Intel Xeon X5460 in each server, so that is equivalent to 16 processors in each server)
(b) 64 GB memory in each server. Since we only put a maximum of 20 VPS's on each server, everybody is guaranteed the resources they pay for, plus there is capacity for each VPS to upgrade on demand up to 3100 MB memory each without downtime or overselling.
(c) 8 X SATA II discs in a RAID config (stripped and mirrored)
(d) Daily backups (clients can make their own backups whenever they like as well as our own backups)
What are the benefits for the forex trader of using your service? Do you have many forex traders?
The benefits to forex traders are the ultra low latency to brokers MT4 servers, resulting in orders getting placed quicker. Very low latency to brokers (8 ms to ItradeFX for example, compared to 130 ms if you used a broadband connection.) Lower latency means orders get to the broker faster. 99.99% uptime Freedom to install any EA and the ability to use any choice of broker.
Access to an in house MetaTrader expert. 24/7 support via email and live chat. All staff are trained in MetaTrader and can help with EA's etc Forex Traders can install as many MetaTraders as they see fit. Access from any computer in the world (even the BlackBerry, iPhone and Windows Mobile)

Yes, we do have a good few thousand forex traders and we are getting more every single day. Most of our business actually comes as a referral from exiting satisfied customers.
How many metatraders can one install per vps?
People can install as many metatraders as they like up to the limit of the memory they chose for each plan.
Update January 2010 I have read Forex VPS has made cooperation with fapturbo guys - now they offer 25% discount to fapturbo clients. the code is fapturbo25 . Also their support staff will install and update Fapturbo for clients, free of charge - good news to all fapturbo traders!
ForexVPS offers clients three different setups for their VPS. This means new clients can save some money by first signing up for a cheaper package and then upgrading as necessary. The most basic ForexVPS package begins at $35 a month. It offers 512 MB of RAM, 10 GB of disk space, and 500 GB of bandwidth per month. Clients also get a dedicated IP address and remote desktop access to the Windows 2003 Server that hosts their VPS.
The next step up, the Professional Desktop Package, is $65 a month but features twice as much RAM (1024 MB), 20 GB of storage space, and 1000 GB of bandwidth each month. It also features a dedicated IP address and remote desktop access. Finally, the Ultimate Desktop package is the best deal from ForexVPS. It features 40 GB of storage, 2048 MB of RAM, and 2000 GB of bandwidth every month in addition to the dedicated IP and access to the Windows 2003 server.
All of these plans are Forex ready and will work with any Expert Advisor or broker program. Metatrader 4 comes pre-installed on each, and every ForexVPS virtual private server is guaranteed to be up 99.9% of the time, meaning clients will never mind a second of the trading action. In addition to this, ForexVPS offers a 30 day money back guarantee to anyone who is unsatisfied with their services.
