Welcome to Zelon Host review.

Zelon, Is a very good VPS provider, They are very reputable, and have been in the business for a long time, This is what allows them to have their amazing prices that I can see from my first glance.

The 2GB KVM plan, contains 1 dedicated core, 2GB of ram, 30Gb of storage (Lemon a system admin had only 15Gb spare to give me to review, But you normally get 30GB.),the virtualizor control panel, and unmetred bandwidth.

Their pricing structure is $5/GB, Not the cheapest, but provides the best price/specs. If it has the best price/performance, we will see later.

This service, is hosted of a new york node, The specs are as followes, E3-1270V3, 32GB RAM, (x2)1TB SSD in RAID1.

I am quite impressed with what you get! for $10, You get 2GB of ram, Enough to run websites, Host discord bots, Host a MC server, with no worries about bandwidth constraints!

Below, you can see the bench.sh scores, which has become a staple in these VPS reviews.

Ping speeds 1:

Ping speeds 2:

io speeds:

System info:

fa11ee4f-0607-42bf-8d4e-865c05bbe151.jpg


Today, We will be comparing this to the fastsrv vps. The fastsrv IO speeds had an average of 493. MB/s, and this vps had io speeds of 270.7 MB/s. As you can see, Zelon is suffering from the Black Plague, by not beating, the budget FastSRV.

For the download speeds, Zelon had much better results all together, Now, This slightly redeems it from slow IO speeds. The System specs are also extremely impressive. Once more, it redeems it from the slow IO speeds.

Final Verdict

Zelon host, has only one downfall, The IO speeds. But, as I have explained earlier, Zelon redeems itself by all of the other features. Even with that one downfall, I would not even be sad if they did not increase the IO speeds.These IO speeds are not what you are going to get, Lemon forgot to add VirtIO when manually creating my VPS. I would rate Zelon Host 9/10.

Thanks, Tristan.

Why were you using outdated CentOS 6.9 for this review? Also, if you were provided a faulty unit (missing VirtIO), you should request it to be fixed instead of posting the review based on non-standard conditions and a varying environment.

I find centos 6.9 fairly stable, And I posted it because the speeds are fairly good either way, and the VirtIO would just be increasing them.

You shouldn't post based on faulty speeds regardless, people reading your review would be lead to believe the IO speeds are 270.7MB/s, not their true decently higher speeds.

I understand your frustration, This review was done a fair time ago. I will take this into consideration for further reviews,[DOUBLEPOST=1526514659][/DOUBLEPOST]

The responsible thing to do would be to get into contact with lemon and request he provision you a normal VPS with VirtIO enabled for an hour or so and then to update the thread with the updated information.

Hello,

Thank you for the review! We'll be upgrading to RAID 10, rather than RAID 1 on this node. This will increase the overall performance for our customers.

Thanks,
