Surpass has given Updates!

Not sure if anyone noticed, but the VPS and Dedicated pages have been updated!

More Bandwidth on VPS!
There is more bandwidth on the VPS server packages! Now VPS 1 has 500gb of bandwidth while VPS 2 has 1,000gb and VPS 3 with 1,500gb! Seems some work they did gives more bandwidth to the VPS, and I'm tempted myself

No More Burstable RAM!?
One thing I noticed is that the feature "2048mb Burstable RAM" is non-existant! Does this mean the feature is gone possibly by abuse? That's a shame, but the quota of RAM per package is good enough anyways and does give incentive to upgrade to dedicated if you need more RAM (and other aspects of course).

Updated Bandwidth for Dedicated.
Nothing "new" as we saw this in June for those getting the sale, but the dedicated page has finally been updated. Now it shows that all dedicated servers come standard with 1,500gb of monthly bandwidth.

Now, didn't mean ot make an announcement, I was just surprised about it and decided to make some notice since there has yet to be any.

Awesome thanks for the news

Looks like they are updating the VPS without you having to place the request maybe?

I see in the "Current VPS Template - Description" area it is now n/a where before it had the plan information.

Very KEWL and awesome upgrade gift from Surpass thanks Surpass

Yeah, they possibly just made these changes VERY recently, thus I'd understand they don' twanna give the announcement until all changes are done.

Just thought I'd recongize something

I forgot to add that they also added extra storage space to the plans!

VPS 1 = 5gb More Storage!
VPS 2 = 10gb More Storage!
VPS 3 = No Change.

Really, in my opinion, VPS 3 has enough storage

No, I just can tell when something changes. I've been interested in a VPS, checked the page, and saw that is wasn't the same as before. Looked alittle more to see that the once VPS 1's once 200gb bandwidth is now 500gb. I knew that the highest VPS bandwidth was 800gb bandwidth, now it is 1,500gb bandwidth. So, I looked at the VPS release thread that had the original plans to get my knowledge

Just those small notices. I own a dedicated server and wanted to see if changes in that department was made. And so they finally added the 1,500 for all dedicated servers on that page, though it was technically 1,500gb since June (or even since May).

I wouldn't doubt it

Now all they need to do is make dedicated servers back to their old 2,000gb bandwidth ( j/k, but wouldn't mind it being raised )

Updated Bandwidth for Dedicated.
1. Yes more bandwidth, we got a great new deal from our providors and wanted to pass on the savings. With the internet now in days using more media bandwidth usage is sky rocketing

2. Yes, to much abuse and it creates an honest misleading of people assume the can use 1gb or 2gb. So just to be safe we removed it.

3. Same as 1

VPS clients will be slowly upgrade in space and bandwidth the next few weeks while bandwidth is done already across all dedicated servers.
