Host1Plus cloud host Cloud Servers purchase process and performance experience test records

Host1Plus is a merchant we are not unfamiliar with. It is a long-established British hosting provider. It was well-known when it was playing virtual hosting, and it was also one of the earliest merchants to provide Alipay payment. Since there has been little movement in the following years, users do not know much about virtual hosting, VPS, cloud hosting and other products. Of course, this is also related to the unattractive performance of their products.

In recent months, merchants have made considerable progress in adjustments, including virtual host configuration and price adjustments, countless changes to the user interface of the backend panel (previously, I saw a different interface every time I entered the backend), and viewing Next door, bloggers are publishing and discussing their newly launched cloud server products. Snail remembers that the price was relatively high when it was first launched, and there were only computer rooms in Chicago and Frankfurt.

Maybe because the price is set too high and the computer room is not very attractive, the sales are not very good. Then a few days ago I received an email with the price reduced to as low as 4 US dollars a month. Regarding their VPS Snail, I have used it before, but not the cloud host. In view of the authentic experience, I plan to buy it for a month and have a look. It is said that the ISO can be customized and installed. Some people say it can be installed, and some people say it cannot be installed. , I want to try this too, I can’t just follow what others say.

First, the Host1Plus cloud host purchase process

1. Host1Plus website

Official website: www.Host1Plus.com

2. Select Cloud Servers cloud host products

In the menu we can see "Cloud Servers", which is the cloud hosting product, as well as VPS, virtual hosting, etc.

The cloud host product has two system solutions: Linux and Windows. Regardless of the actual needs and the cost of snail testing, we only have a Linux LIN1 solution.

3. Select the computer room and other configuration information

Currently there are only 2 computer rooms in Frankfurt and Chicago, and the monthly fee has already used the CS50OFF half-price discount code by default. Select the Linux system we need to load by default, and then the rest will be simple. The longer the payment cycle, the cheaper it is.

4. Registration, login and payment activation

The rest is simple, log in if you have an account, register if you don’t have an account, and then you can pay with Alipay.

The exchange rate is a bit high recently, so it costs 27 yuan (two lunches are gone).

Second, basic use of Host1Plus panel

After Snail pays, the machine will be automatically activated and you will receive several emails in a row. Don’t worry about it and go directly to the background to take a look.

1. Select Simplified Chinese

The background supports Simplified Chinese language, so switch it over for convenience.

2. Check the activated cloud host information

This is the cloud host driven by Snail. (Snail cannot guarantee the performance of any released products and whether the merchants are stable, but basically I will open one of the released machines to have a look)

3. Automatic backup

Provide automatic backup services. It can be activated and set up daily, weekly, monthly, and hourly.

4. Customize ISO system

See everyone mentioned that Host1Plus cloud host supports custom ISO installation. Here we think of VULTR support, but some netizens mentioned that WIN cannot be installed, and some said it is possible. Snail is going to use an article to see for himself in the future. Is it possible. I won’t try it here, I have to go to work, so I don’t have much time.

5. Cancel automatic renewal

We can cancel the renewal order, or if we have bound a credit card and there are multiple machines in the account, we can cancel the automatic renewal of a certain machine and do not want it when it expires.

PS: Customized upgrade services are also provided, such as CPU, memory, hard disk, etc. can be upgraded individually.

Third, Host1Plus cloud host experience testing process

PS: Due to bad luck, I opened a blocked IP and could not log in to SSH and use it. Snail wrote an email to the official and asked them to handle it and change the IP. I will add the evaluation part after getting a reply and being able to test it. (It should be caused by the machine being stuck after activating it, and then it will be fine after reinstalling the system)

1. Ping speed test

2. Route tracing test

3. Random download and IO test

The above is the test data of H1P cloud server that Snail purchased personally for a month. The price is cheaper than before. It is said that the WIN system can be installed via ISO, but some people say it is not possible. I will see for myself later whether it is possible.
