Not screwed too badly after all

OK, my hosting company hasn't jumped ship, as I finally got throught to someone on their end. I'm still going to need to find a new hosting company very quickly. This was the last straw.

Does anyone know of any decent hosters BESIDES OrcsWeb or MaximumASP? I've got bigger plans for our web farm that neither one of these guys will be able to handle. I'm going to need a dedicated server account too, because we host websites for several other people as well. Oh yeah, and it HAS to be Windows Server 2003.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Robert,

You could try SecureWebs. I used them about 4 years or so ago, so I don't know how they are now, but at the time they provided very good service.

Check out http://www.asp.net/hosters/
It has a solid list of hosters that we are working with, you can probably find someone to meet your needs there.

I have had good experiences with http://securewebs.com

I run all of my sites off a dedicated box there now.

Whatever you do, don't try aspwebhosting. One day they decided I was using too much cpu time and suspended my account. Those bastards took my site offline, removed my email account, and refused to let me get even backup of sql-server data. The loss of time and effort combined with damage to my business is unforgivable.

I second Martin's recommendation of CrystalTech. Over the past three years they have consistently increased their offerings and features while my cost has gone DOWN! They actually lowered the hosting cost on ALL of their plans when they released a big upgrade to their control center application. I don't have a dedicated plan there, but you might check them out. They are VERY reseller friendly as well.

I will support Mike (Hi Mike!) and Martin's recommendation of CrystalTech. Features are great, cost is good (gone down!), and service is excellent.
