DayZHostOne set me up with an unmanaged local database private hive Saintly Chernarus server __exactly__ to my specifications in under 4 hours (not counting time they spent waiting for email responses from me). That's insane! This is after I spent a full week fighting with one of the "big name" hosting companies for a cookie-cutter fully-managed shared private hive instance that I was never able to successfully log into. The difference is night and day. During the setup process, communication with DayZHostOne was always extremely prompt and informed. I never once was stuck wondering what was going on with my server, or found myself answering questions that I had already answered in previous mail. I haven't had any issues with my server yet, so I can't comment on post-install support, but I've seen no indication what-so-ever to that this amazing level of support will not continue. When I received my RDP credentials, I was expecting to log in and find your typical dirty Windows server: icons all over the desktop, installation zip files cluttered all over the place, full trash can, etc etc. This couldn't have been further from the case. It was spotless. The desktop has only four icons: Computer, Recycle Bin, a shortcut to start the dayz server, and a shortcut to the day_server directory. Everything is very logically set up, easy to find, and overall just feels extremely professional (They even installed Notepad++!). I don't anticipate having any issues upgrading the Saintly server software or installing custom maps (e.g. Lingor) in the future. This was completely for me on Saturday morning (two days ago). I wanted to give it a few days before posting a review, as some people had expressed concerns about performance of the VM. For me, there are none. Me and a few friends played on it all weekend without issue. Loading times are extremely fast and I've only seen an orange link once. Granted, I'm not asking very much from it yet; it's just me and a few of my friends playing at the moment, but if there were glaring problems with the underlying hardware or virtualization stack, they would be visible even at low load. Seriously, I couldn't be happier with my decision to go with these guys.
