Aéza France Paris Shared AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D anti-DDoS VPS Test and Review
In our latest review, we tested the performance of the shared virtual server from Aéza, based in Paris, France. This server has an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16-core Processor, 4 CPU cores, 8 GB of RAM, 120 GB of SSD storage, 1 Gbps internet connection, and unlimited data traffic. It also comes with both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address, which ensures better connectivity.
We’re going to carry out several tests to measure its performance:
– Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark: These tests gauge key stats, like how fast the server can process tasks.
– Global Node Test: This extensive network test checks how well the server communicates with different parts of the internet.
– Global Ping Test: This test measures the delay, or ‘latency,’ between sending a request to the server and receiving a response.
Additionally, we will also test:
– Media Unlock Test: This checks whether the server can access content that might be geographically restricted in some areas.
– CloudFlare Internet Test: This evaluates the quality of the internet connection.
– PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix Performance tests: These tests measure how quickly websites hosted on the server load for users.
By the end of this review, we’ll clearly understand this server’s capabilities and performance.
About aéza
Aéza is a modern web hosting company that offers cloud-based Virtual Private Servers (VPS) and Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS) for rent. They have a unique pricing structure with which you can get 1 virtual CPU and 8 GB of RAM for just 109 rubles per month. They also have heavier-duty servers available for rent, featuring the top-of-the-range AMD Threadripper 3990X processors, which can run at speeds up to 4.3 GHz.
Aéza takes pride in its state-of-the-art equipment and swift communication lines. They provide a technical support team to assist with setup and other needs. Their website is accessible in Russian, and they can be reached at this contact number: +7 (800) 200-60-13.
However, user reviews of Aéza on Trustpilot are mixed. Some customers have expressed satisfaction with their VPS offerings and the technical support provided. However, others have reported problems with their services and customer support.
One user warned that the site might be fraudulent and maintains all its servers in Russia, despite its claims of having servers in other locations such as Sweden and Germany. Another user expressed dissatisfaction after buying a server with an Austrian IP address but received a Russian IP address instead.
