I have been looking for something supporting IIS7, but it recently became critically important when my current provider could not get my VPS back up even after 3 days (and it is still down right now). I checked out rackspace, which has a good reputation for uptime service, and they recommended mosso when I asked to start with something small. I have both LAMP and .NET 3.x needs, and was I surprised to see mosso supports PHP and .NET with clusters! I think it is awesome that mosso is eager to leverage IIS7, which is something I have wanted to do myself, but don't have the resources or time. So now after racking my brains for the past three days about how I can come up with the equivalent of a clustered, load-balanced, redundant hosting solution with uptime guarantees and available admin support, I think I found it, and I am betting my money on it. I really appreciate the enthusiasm and readiness of mosso to come up with such a great hosting solution and proactively make sure it is great in all aspects. Keep it up!! Guy N. Hurst Wow, am I excited!

I hope this could be the perfect platform to put applications using the Microsoft MVC framework (http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/11/13/asp-net-mvc-framework-part-1.aspx) online.

We've been working with the product team and they sent us some proposed workarounds. We are in the process of testing those now. I'll shoot you an e-mail early next week and we can discuss the issue some more. Thanks for the feedback! Josh @Brian: Thanks for the offer.

Please let me know if there are some questions we can answer. I'm very interested in your response time issues. I'd love it if you could email me and let me know where you are located. A bit of background: according to the monitoring we have, our site pages load in an average time of 626.35 ms. (That's across about 15 worldwide monitoring locations. Reading, England, for example clocks in at 1,279 ms.) Speed is as important to us as uptime and I'd love to know more about what you are experiencing. You can email me at founders@mosso.com.

I scoured the internet for almost a year signing up with hosting providers. I did colocation, I did shared server. I almost started to sign up with a managed server provider, but then we found Mosso -- and are we ever glad we did. They are awesome! The IIS7 setup is still beta and needs some configuration changes before it's production ready. I experienced this by mistake when setting up a new client. In the meantime, you won't find a better provider for a system like this. Performance is great. I haven't had any issues with uptime. And the support staff are always available and extremely helpful and nice. Damian,

So far, I am really impressed with your offering and technology. The IIS 7 (and .NET 3.5 ) implementation really seals the deal for me.
