Hi all, Michael from Vive Hosting here.

It's been a while since my last post and that was on purpose. We went quiet whilst we rebuilt our infrastructure from the ground up, and I'm glad to say we're back.

If you saw our earlier posts you'll know we kicked things off with our KVM storage servers, and the response was incredible. That's where we made the biggest impact on price so it's where we're picking back up.

Quick bit of background on the quiet spell. We come from a software development background and ran hosting in-house for our own clients for well over 15 years. When we first opened to the public we did it the way we always had: WHMCS for billing and a mixture of virtualisation platforms bolted together, simply because that's how we'd done it for years in our other business. It worked, but it was never really built for this. So we rebuilt the lot. We've resolved countless issues, streamlined everything end to end and launched a fully bespoke platform of our own. No more WHMCS, no more patchwork. It's ours top to bottom.

To celebrate, here are some of our biggest discounts yet, on everything:
60% off monthly with code VH60MONTH
70% off annual with code VH70ANNUAL

Storage servers (the main event)

These are KVM storage servers: a fast SSD OS disk paired with a big enterprise storage array. Ideal as backup and archive targets, Nextcloud, media libraries, secondary storage or anything else within our TOS. Every plan comes with 2 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, a 25 GB SSD OS disk, 5 TB of monthly transfer on a 400 Mbps port and a dedicated IPv4 address. Storage sits on our ZFS-backed enterprise SAS array.

After discount that works out at a flat £15 per TB per year:

1 TB - £50/yr £15 per year (annual only)
2 TB - £100/yr £30 per year (annual only)
5 TB - £25/mo £10 per month or £250/yr £75 per year

Compute servers

If you need more cores and memory rather than capacity, our standard KVM compute plans are on the same codes. Each includes a 25 GB SSD disk, 5 TB monthly transfer on a 400 Mbps port and one IPv4 address.

1 vCPU / 2 GB RAM - £30 per year (annual only)
2 vCPU / 4 GB RAM - £8 per month or £60 per year
4 vCPU / 8 GB RAM - £16 per month or £120 per year
8 vCPU / 16 GB RAM - £24 per month or £180 per year

The bits that apply to everything

A quick note on IPv6: we fully support it and can enable it on any plan via a support ticket, but real-world uptake has been so minimal that we've left it off the standard build for now. If you want it, just ask and we'll sort it.

Everything runs on enterprise-grade Dell PowerEdge hardware with Intel Xeon Gold CPUs and fast SSDs, hosted in UK data centres with daily off-site backups and DDoS protection as standard. Setup is fully automated, with most servers deployed within 1 to 2 minutes of ordering.

To order, head to https://vivehosting.com, pick your plan and hit Order Now. Apply VH60MONTH for 60% off monthly or VH70ANNUAL for 70% off annual at checkout. We accept PayPal and card.

Any questions, please open a support ticket and we'll do our best to help.

Thanks
Michael
