Mark,

No offense, but I would need all 8 of your accounts just to barely fit my site onto their servers. At $9 each, that would cost me $72 monthly. Burstnet is VERY competitive in the larger markets ... especially if you bring them your best deal from a different webhost. The deal they cut me is terrific!

BurstNet caters to the bigger sites and so forth. Also, there is no such thing as "unlimited" bandwidth.

I'm currently hosted with Softcomca.com from Canada (Win NT servers) since 2 years and they're good to me. I have about 8 accounts with them. No setup fees, fast connection, unlimited traffic, 50 megs, several POP accounts, good support, autoresponders, and so on...and the price is still 8.95$ a month.
Burstnet doesn't seem that competitive to me...

I think BurstNET's servers are located in Icon GMT's NOC.

Just make sure you get that unbeatable deal in writing or it very well could be beatable

Well... I have decided that Burstnet (burstnet.net) is going to be my next webhost!

They claimed to be able to match or beat competitor's offers, and I held them to that statement. They most definetely backed it up, and offered me a deal I couldn't refuse!

I was all set to call Powersurge later this morning when I got a very interesting e-mail from Burstnet. They had seen a posting that I had made on a different forum (*gasp* I do post elsewhere!) and they offered to meet or beat my best deal.

I think it is just the idea of being pursued as a client that has me the most intrigued here... That doesn't happen very often.

Any thoughts, rumors, first hand accounts with this company? I will probably still go with PowerSurge, but I am giving Burstnet a chance to produce an offer. (While I check them out of course).

Oh....hehe...I never new burstnet.net worked.

Anyways...I don't see how their site looks similar to NetNation's site.

BurstNet runs their own servers, etc and they are NOT resellers of anyone.

The Sales Dept. of BurstNet reads the posts on several Web Hosting forums (not sure of this one) and they will make offers to meet or beat other hosting companies offers. They only do this if they feel that can meet your needs in hosting your site(s).

I would recommend BurstNet to you.

Chase,

Burst.net and Burstnet.net are the same.
