:We had two offers and I decided to take the one of [http://www.weblink.ch Weblink] for 225CHF/month. This was not the cheapest one, but the datacenter is really near to my house, something essential for me: I wanted to be able to quickly and easily make hardware maintenance.  Server is migrated and works.
