[US] Backupsy – $7/mo / 500GB / KVM VPS + Cloudive – $7/mo / 2GB RAM / SSD KVM

Oktay, from Backupsy and Cloudive is back with one exclusive offer from Cloudive as well as a few of the Backupsy offers which have been featured here before. They have since added Orlando, Denver and Los Angeles, however Chicago and Denver are out of stock for this offer.

This is the first time Cloudive has been featured here, however Oktay has featured it a few times on LET. This is also the third time Backupsy has been featured here. Although Backupsy was founded in April 2013 they have expanded exponentially and continue to expand, Cloudive is exactly a year older than Backupsy and has been providing ‘cloud’ VPS’s. It’s also worth noting the custom control panel they utilize. The Cloudive nodes are Dual X5650′s with 144GB RAM  and 8 x Intel 520 SSD in RAID10, while the Backupsy nodes are Dual X5570′s with 96GB RAM and 12 x Seagate Constellation 3TB in RAID50. All of the hardware is owned and colocated at the respective facilities. The reviews for Backupsy have been consistently good, and similarly with Cloudive.

Payments for both sites are accepted via PayPal and credit+debit cards via 2Checkout. Backupsy VPS’s are allowed to run any software/OS “that assists backing up, owncloud, private VPN/Proxy, development, monitoring and other light CPU and IO intensive applications except torrents, TOR and game servers,” however their NL location is allowed to run anything except Torrents, TOR and Game Servers. Cloudive VPS’s are allowed anything except public proxies, TOR, torrents and email marketing. The full TOS are available here for Cloudive and here for Backupsy.
