Need Advice For New VPS Provider

webdotdev

Hoping to get some advice on moving our company’s VPS to a new provider. We’ve been with A2 for 7 or 8 years, and aside from a 5 day straight outage due to a fire in one of their facilities, they have treated us well with few issues during this time. Our plan is up for renewal and we are a bit hesitant staying with them due to their buyout and rising complaints in forums.
CURRENT PLAN:
8 Core AMD EPYC 7313 | 450 NVME Storage | 32GB

UPGRADE PLAN THEY'RE OFFERING:
16 CPU Cores | 32GB | 640GB NVME Storage

This upgrade is a $121/mo.

I'm just concerned with the buyout from a big conglomerate, this usually spells trouble to come. It is mostly the buyout that is pushing us to look at other options. We're really trying to get some feedback on reliable host with comparable or better hardware. Possibly, we're at a point to look for a dedicated server.

At OperaVPS, we provide KVM-based VPS solutions with SSD storage and multiple global data center options. Our pricing is transparent and our technical support team is accessible 24/7.

If I understand you right, you’re happy with performance but uneasy about the buyout and want A2-class (or better) specs maybe even dedicated.

Here’s how I’d approach it:

Map needs → CPU (vCPU vs bare-metal cores), RAM, NVMe IOPS, bandwidth, snapshots, backups, uptime SLA.
Benchmark now → record CPU steal, iowait, NVMe latency, and peak bandwidth to set a baseline.
Decide VPS vs Dedicated → if you’re IO-heavy or sensitive to “noisy neighbors”, a single-tenant dedicated with NVMe may be safer than doubling vCPUs.
Check the boring bits → contract term, support response targets, maintenance windows, restore RTO/RPO, data location, exit/migration help.

Practical tip: run a short load test (e.g., k6 + fio) on a trial VM and compare to your current baseline before committing.

We see teams revisit hosting right after ownership changes; most land on either CPU-optimized VPS with clear IOPS guarantees or a small dedicated box for predictable performance.

Risk if you wait: rising contention or policy changes can hit performance and support plus rushed migrations cause downtime.
