I saw they announced moving from OpenVZ to KVM a few years ago, is that 100% converted now or some of their servers are still OpenVZ in some cases?

what is your experience

I thought this was a German company based on the name, but it’s in California lol

KVM vs. OpenVZ – A quick comparison of two popular VPS types

KVM is more versatile and will generally work better for your needs, as long as the VPS has enough resources. Go with OpenVZ if you have basic requirements on a VPS with low resource level provided (such as a small 128MB virtual server.)

I mean, I guess they’re kinda right here.

Are the KVM fanatics just throwing up 5-page WordPress sites and doing full site caching on Cloudflare? pretty sure OpenVZ is okay for that if the datacenter is well managed.

Their pricing doesn’t match on these 2 pages:

Cheap KVM Linux VPS Windows VPS

NVME1G
$5 /Month
1GB DDR4 RAM
1 Core Ryzen CPU
30GB NVMe SSD
2TB @ 1Gbps

Compare VPS Plans

NVMe1G
$ 5 /Month
1GB DDR4 RAM
1 Core Ryzen CPU
25GB NVMe SSD
2TB @ 1Gbps

pricing could be a typo, but I find this strange

Our Cheapest VPS Packages
Previously OpenVZ Container Virtualization, Upgraded to KVM Lite* Virtualization. Multiple flavors of Linux. Pure SSD.

“KVM Lite” ??

Did they just create this out of thin air, because there is no such thing and even checking their website doesn’t have any explanation of what it means

still impressive though:

Value+ LITE
$ 1.50 /Month
512MB RAM
1 CPU vCORE
10GB Disk
Disk Not Expandable
1 Dedicated IP
500GB @ 100Mbps Bandwidth

VirMarch is not German

He is Iranian American I think, based in California.

Even after reading this thread, I still don’t know what is KVM Lite, something about smaller disk space? I think it’s KVM but maybe has an attached block storage that is not KVM or something like that for customers upgrading from OpenVZ.
