Hello! Whilst looking around for VPS Hosting in NZ, I only came across a couple good ones: VPSCity and Voyager, I am currently with VPSCity and they've been good with not terrible pricing but was wondering if anyone has tried Voyager and if it's worth giving them a whirl?

Hows their pricing?

Whats their VPS Hosting like (Reliability & performance)?

What's their web panel like?

What are you wanting to achieve? IMHO there is not too much benefit for most hosting to be in NZ and you can get away with hosting in Australia for cheaper unless if what you're hosting is latency sensitive.

VPS hosting in New Zealand is still (for some reason) really expensive compared to over the ditch. Vultr / Linode are cheaper options that have a Sydney presence and often better hardware too. Else in New Zealand I'd actually recommend Sitehost.

I've not tried Voyager hosting as I assumed it would be too expensive compared to hosting overseas. I'm surprised to see it's only about twice what I'm paying with BuyVM in the US. BuyVM is great and I highly recommend them for cheap hosting (like my site), but the IP reputation is terrible. I might give Voyager a go next time I need to shuffle things around (mainly for upgrades).

Voyager as an ISP is excellent and I have no doubt their VPS hosting will be reliable.

Most of what I host if it isn't a public instance I will host over in Aus using Linode but for things I host publicly (or may host because I get bored and like just doing things) I like to host them in NZ. I did like their whole "custom" VPS method where you can allocate what you need.
