Kamatera verzus SeFlow 2021

rt, a real person!
In addition, what I like so far about the experience with them is:
1) Their dashboard has a lot of features and offers great flexibility in managing my instances.
2) The fact that they display a phone number predominantly on your support page, KOODO! We do not see that a lot now a days.
3) I tried the support desk with one inquiry ticket and the response was faster than for some high priority tickets I had opened with their competitor.
4) So far, my instance is fast, responsive and very stable.
Overall, great service and very competitive pricing.

At the end i didn't manage to connect any of my credit cards for unknown reason. They said i should write to billing team for manual card connection. Previously not problem with this cards for any services.

here is more technical complicated issue at hand (more than stop/start server), a solution can take look, or is ignored. Here are my annoyances, to warn other people. I have communicated these to SeFlow as feedback and asked my remaining credit back. They refused in which I gave them a last chance to do this, or I would post this feedback online. So here it is. :)
- Several times I have encountered that the CloudFlow virtual server was turned off unexpectedly. When I reported this, the answer was more or less: "this service is not great, you should take the more expensive one".
- Several times I have encountered that the CloudFlow virtual server did not start after a shutdown. I had to open a ticket to request help for repair and start the server.
- I have had issues with the billing of this virtual server, where the changes of resources (CPU, RAM) did not reflect the hourly rate. Although this got fixed, it took a lot of time and wasted effort from my side.
- I recently (March 2021) encountered a failure that the virtual server did not run. It was related to the fire at OVH. But there was no communication until I opened a support ticket. After that the communication appeared, which was very lean and more or less blaming OVH. There was no decent recovery plan or any real announcement/advice what to do next. The server is still offline and cannot be started. I cannot even destroy it.
- The support team puts the blame several times at the software or services of their partners. It is the other one; not them.... Strange, I thought I had a contract with SeFlow and not with their partners. ;-)
- The company does not do refund: "There is no refund policy". Charming, while so many problems.
If you chose to use SeFlow, which I advice against, add the minimum of credit, since you won't get anything back. Even if their services are under performing.
