Hive.com.my <-- Malaysia's most lousy space provider

[lousy_hive]

as the topic we can see, i can confirmed and said that HIVE is the most lousy internet webspace provider in Malaysia !!!!
why i say that ??
that is a lot of reason to let me say the topic as loud as possible .
First, DOWN 2 Times in one year ( SUPER Down one, Harddisk gone )
harddisk gone mean data gone , the CHEAP server didnt provide backup one ..

second, Albert Lai( hive's BOSS ) didnt do anything while the server down ..
the SQL server always down. I heard that, the Albert Lai only ask for RESTART the server while the server down. He cant do anything.

I am one of the victim from the situation, the server down last time ...
let me lost most of the data. ( The SQL data gone... )

i write this tread for let all the user know that they can go for better company. like XXSERVERONE , they also cheap but better quallity ..
Dont go to hive again ..

this the evidence

sorry to hear that. It's good thing to keep people posted which hosting is good/bad to save ppl from the same xperience.

[sauerkraut]

After the downtime, anyone submited a ticket to Hive and got a reply from them?

I've submited a few tickets but didnt any reply from them.

I've a feeling Hive is either very incompetent or very evil

[vincevincevince]

They are running through tmnet's eastgate service, giving them an advantage over most 'malaysian' hosts which have their servers in the US. That being said, if you aren't getting the service you require, do look elsewhere.

I always find that I get what I pay for!

hive only know to say "sorry" then again "sorry" and then..again "sorry"..all the time..should change their name to hive-sorry.net.

all my database are gone..thanks to hive..my own backup?sure..so next time web hosting co's do not have any responsibilities to do it..just mirroring the corrupted hardisk before they knew it..

just my 2 cents

HE really cant do anything with the server ..
so lousy the service ..
i post this tread for all the users can stay away from lousy service and irresponsible BOSS(Albert Lai)
they also got an account in webmastermalaysia -- FILUREN NETWORK
i dont think they dare to say anything here .. except SORRY

[johntxy]

I used them to register a domain before and the service was not bad. However when i checked their site a week ago it was down. As a web host myself, I think he could've done better and minimise the down time.

And coming to this topic, I've got quite a number of people telling me how lousy malaysia hosts are. I somehow come to agree to some extent. I've seen some falling apart.

I am a webhost myself and I recognise this trend among many Malaysians. They want to reap something out of nothing. They put in no effort yet want to earn alot of money. If you wan a fast way to earn hosting, u can sell cheap, oversell and have a bad server. And by doing so, you are TARNISHING the name of MALAYSIA WEB HOSTS.

I appeal to ALL, please. When you conduct your business PLEASE be ethical and know that wat you sow is wat you reap. Do not wait for money to fall from heaven.

bad web hosting ???

[chek-kalem™]

i 've Experience the same thing too..
last year(2005) between august or september..their server went down..something about hard disk falilure..for 3 weeks that's unacceptable !
server down, yes.. but DUIT HOSTING JALAN,MACAM MANA NI !

if you look at their web site..they offer 100% of UPTIME..that ridiculos...
even top web hosting company inthe US offer not more than 99%.

few weeks ago..i 'd ordered their hosting service, hoping that this year they'll get better..
but, to my disappointment, their server went down AGAIN !
i wrote a letter.. requesting a refund, they reply..
and here is the transcript..

PHP Code:

hello,
this is the third time that i would like to remind you about my refund !
if you have done so..please let me know immediately.
when, what time?
Yes, of course..RM11 is not a big deal, but that money belongs to my alumni (under treasury name), not me !
how am i going to answer to them?
i just want my money back ! that's all !

[mysticmind]

i think they (hive) should REMOVE "UNMETERED BANDWITH" .
that's their main problem..
when there's 10 or more site that's high bandwith usage. (normally download site , mp3, bla bla.. )
10 high bandwith site in a server gonna kill 100 other site in the same server.. When there is more high bandwith site inside.. the server Crash and kaput laa..
so there's the matter and there's Never and Ever unlimited and unmetered bandwith..


otherwise.. it will happen again and again..

..

you can sell CHEAP, AFFORDABLE, (anything else nice word here).. but MUST SET A LIMIT on it..

[ajamz]

from my pengalaman 2 times dah website down for the first time semua data lost dan second time pon data lost plus account hilang. tapi buat camna marah pon tak guna kan salah kita juga backup takde

[chek-kalem™]

nasib baik saya ada backup server..server US jgk bagus..
