VPS.one Slovakia Bratislava Intel Core Fast and Reliable Virtual Private Server Test and Review
We recently put the VPS.one Slovakia Bratislava Virtual Private Server to the test, examining its capabilities and performance through various benchmarks. The server has an Intel Core Processor, 2 CPU cores, 3 GB of RAM, a hefty 45 GB SSD for storage, an internet connection that can reach up to 250 Mbps, unlimited data transfer, and an IPv4 address.
We’ve put this server through several checks:
1. Basic performance tests (Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark) to see how fast and efficient the server is.
2. A thorough network check (Global Node Test) to evaluate the server’s connection across different locations.
3. A ping test (Global Ping Test) to measure the time it takes for the server to respond.
Also, we’ve looked at:
4. Can the server access media from different regions (Media Unlock Test).
5. The quality of the server’s connection to the Cloudflare network.
6. How well websites perform using this server with tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix Performance.

Admin Control Panel
The VPS1.net website mentions an “Easy control panel” as part of their service offering. However, the search results do not provide specific details about the admin control panel. It’s common for VPS providers to offer a control panel that allows users to manage their server resources, monitor performance, and configure settings.

Payments
To pay for services automatically, you can subscribe to this service every month.
Subscription is a service provision method where the fee for using the services will be automatically debited from your bank card or e-wallet at a set interval. Use your saved Payment methods to create a subscription.
Payment methods — menu in the client area. In this menu, you can save your bank card or e-wallet details.
Saved payment methods can be used:
- to buy services;
- to create subscriptions.
For example, you buy a virtual server for a month. You turned on auto-renewal when you purchased the service and paid with your saved bank card. Thus, the card will be automatically charged for this service every month until you cancel the subscription.

Customer Support
A client can submit a ticket in BILLmanager → Support → Support tickets. He can choose a department to which the ticket will be sent, enter the subject of his question, and describe the issues. He can also choose a service his question is associated with.
After the client has sent the ticket, it will be displayed in the Tickets section. When a staff member sends a reply, the system will inform the client about new posts on the ticket, and the ticket status will change to “New replies.” The ticket will be closed in the Admin area and displayed again when the client sends a new reply.
Once the issue is resolved, the client can move the ticket to archive in the All Tickets section. The archive contains all the tickets the client has sent since registering in the Client area.
Conclusion
Our initial performance tests showed consistent and increasing I/O speeds over three runs, averaging at 185 MB/s—meaning the server does a good job at reading and writing data. Network performance was also impressive across various locations, particularly in Europe, with high upload speeds and decent download speeds, although latency varied based on distance.
The Yabs performance test focused on disk read and write operations, showcasing speeds that reached as high as 3.45 GB/s, indicating a robust performance when dealing with demanding tasks. Geekbench scores reflected well on single and multi-core performance, underscoring the server’s potential for handling multiple tasks simultaneously.
Our UnixBench tests gave us a detailed look at the server’s abilities, from processing to file operations and script execution, with variables generally indicating performance well above the baseline. Notably, the server performed exceptionally well in multitasking, where two simultaneous runs almost doubled the performance scores, a testament to the server’s efficiency in handling concurrent processes.
In terms of media access capabilities, the server had mixed results. While it could access certain services like Dazn and Amazon Prime Video, it was limited to Netflix originals and couldn’t unlock some other popular streaming platforms in the region tested.
In conclusion, the VPS.one Slovakia Bratislava VPS demonstrates strong performance in processing power and network capabilities. It’s a reliable choice if you’re seeking a server that can handle data-intensive tasks and has the speed to back it up. While its media unlocking capabilities could be restrictive depending on the region and services tested, its robust core performance makes it a solid choice for a wide range of applications.
