ExtraVM is a very good web hosting provider. I was their customer in the past. Here is my review about them.
ExtraVM company overview
ExtraVM is an amazing company based in Texas. When almost companies are founded for giving money to the CEO, ExtraVM is not like them. They make profit for reinvestment, and they regularly help non-profit organizations.
They are founded in 2014 and despite they are young, they really know what they do. I specially love their highly qualified support team.
More information about this company is available on their website.
ExtraVM NVMe VPS overview
Their VPS are powered by NVMe storage, a cutting edge technology making IOPS capabilities very high. I would recommand ExtraVM VPS for all IOPS intensive usage projects.
They seem to use mainly OVH network, as my VPS got an OVH IP. I don’t know if other locations also use OVH network.
ExtraVM VPS plans
ExtraVM provide two kind of VPS: a standard NVMe VPS for general purpose and game VPS which come with special anti-DDoS firewall (maybe just like OVH provides).
All their VPS provides SolusVM based interface for management, and they have their own firewall interface inside their customer area, allow blocking or unblock traffic at host level.
