media temple grid service has a very slow page loading time around the world. (america is ok) for small pages with not much traffic it is very poor because of the grid latency. i use it now and i can not recomment it hope it gets better or i have to moveâ€¦

I have not had the wonderful experience that you mention in you post. Just in 2007 the GRID has been down twice for +40 minutes right in the middle of the day. It’s also down on average for 10 minutes the other days.

I would have a look at the blog category they don’t include with the other categories.

Thanks Ian. Right now I am using Ensim and despise it. I’m looking forward to being able to use Plesk. Now I have to figure out if it is possible to move 10GB of email from Sendmail to Qmail, or if I’ll have to tell people to save their email to their hard drive.

Joe – Plesk does offer IMAP in recent versions, and I have had no problems using it. Compared to some other solutions I have found Plesk a pleasure to use.

My first account with Media Temple was a rock solid dedicated virtual. Then I moved to the Grid after hearing from Media Temple how wonderful it would be. I’ve come very very close to switching back. There’s something to be said about having your own dedicated resources and SSH access. Unfortunately lots of my clients opt to leave email on their servers as a backup or for web access. So the storage space might go kinda quick I’d think.

Plesk is wonderful by the way. Especially for resellers.

Last time i tried Plesk I loved it, but but found out the hard (and expensive) way that the default mail program, QMail, did not support IMAP. Do you know if the new Plesk supports IMAP?

The prices look good but Plesk isn’t exacty the best control panel for a server. I’m hosted with SoftLayer and have had nothing but pleasure with them.

I just got home from work at midnight, checked the (mt) blog, and alas, happy days! I got myself a (dv) a month back for a project I am working on at the moment, and have been looking forward to trying out Plesk 8. Can’t wait!

I see (mt) have simplified (and greatly reduced) prices to bring them in line with the pricing scheme for the (gs).

*tips hat to the (mt) team.
