I am looking for an affordable and reliable VPS solution serving Windows Server 2008.
Use case is to run a Continuous Integration build Server for an asp.net mvc site project.

Any suggestions?

  1. The most affordable in the realm of Hyper-V (more robust solution than Virtuozzo): WebSpaceDepot
  2. Also very affordable VPS based on Parallels Virtuozzo technology with respected provider: KickAss VPS

For what it's worth, I've had a Server 2008 VPS from KickAss VPS for about 3 months now and I am spending today looking for other options. They don't let you install your own OS updates, IIS is SUPER flaky, and Virtuozzo goes down fairly regularly. My VPS hangs consistently and I have to forcibly reboot it.
