Review of No Ack Hosting (Stockholm, Sweden)

edited January 29 in Reviews

I’ve been a customer of No Ack Hosting for over two years now, and I can confidently say it’s been an outstanding experience. The support and uptime they provide are top-notch, making them a standout option in a market filled with unreliable providers.

My Experience
I’ve been using my VM primarily for BGP tunneling to my home network, allowing me to utilize my /24 IPv4 and /48 IPv6 subnets seamlessly. Even during their infrastructure migration, the downtime was minimal—just a brief interruption, which is impressive given the scale of such operations.

The support team at No Ack Hosting has always been quick, professional, and knowledgeable, which is rare to find. Whether it’s answering technical questions or resolving minor hiccups, they’ve been consistently reliable.

Service Highlights
Currently, I’m running the KVM VPS 1G BGP, which has been perfect for my needs. Its specifications include:

CPU: 1Core
RAM: 1GB (1024 MB)
Disk Space: 15GB SSD
IPv4: 1 Address
IPv6: /64 included (expandable to /48)
Network Interface: 100Mbps (Upgradeable if needed)

Finding a good BGP-enabled VM in Northern Europe—especially in Stockholm—is a challenge, but No Ack Hosting delivers where others fail. Their reliability, combined with the ability to customize BGP support, makes them an excellent choice for networking enthusiasts like me.

I’ve also noticed they now offer a smaller VPS option, which is great for users with lighter workloads. The specs for this smaller VPS are:

CPU: 1 Core
RAM: 256 MB
Disk Space: 10 GB SSD
IPv4: 1 Address
IPv6: 1 Address
Network Interface: 100Mbps

It’s a fantastic entry point for anyone looking to get started with a VPS at an affordable price.

Final Thoughts
No Ack Hosting has been around since 2018 (or earlier?), though I only became a customer in 2023. In this time, they’ve proven to be a reliable, professional, and high-quality hosting provider. If you’re in need of a VM, Dedicated Server, or Co-Location (from 1U to a full cabinet) in Stockholm, I highly recommend reaching out to them.

This review comes from genuine satisfaction with their services and the peace of mind they’ve given me. It’s hard to find a trustworthy provider in forums like LowEndTalk, where “summer hosters” often dominate, but No Ack Hosting is a refreshing exception. If you’re searching for reliability, excellent support, and great uptime, they’re the provider to choose.

Don't be intimidated by their website; their primary focus is on infrastructure and servers.

    Im not at all shady been doing hosting since 2006. Just recently started offering low-price services. Nothing shady with that. And LET and here seems to be a good place to do some ads.

    I googled around for sites to add myself to for looking at how the market is today. And as LET is giving me Permission denied and login issues since november i just finally gave up. This site seems to be working better.

    Thanks. I Just joined to checkout market and get a feel on what my pricing should be put at for the lower-end services I started to market. Seems to be a good market for it.

    And he has colo since many years back in one of my racks.
    Also a very good old friend of mine.

    The restriction is not on what you write but the number of lines.

    Actually, since you do not have a provider tag, you're probably only allowed two lines as a "regular user".

    Oh but my provider tag is just pending my Introduction that I have not had time to finnish yet. Im still writing on something worthy of writing and publishing. And I do work 100% at customers on daily normal work hours.

    He was yes. But what has that got to do with this review :) Yes he has 3 networks that I moved as a sponsoring-lir deal into my LIR. Nothing strange with that. And ofcoz my company becomes the org-id for the networks as we did transfer to empty the old LIR.

    One main man but as I have not had incidents for past years i dont think its worth employing people when everything is automated and money not enought to pay someone. But I do have multiple remote hands and backups for infrastructure with access in case im not around. But it has never been used. I work with linux network and automation past 6 years and actually been with network and linux admin works since 1996 when I started working for Sweden Telia company and all infra I do have is automated. I dont do anything manually. Why would I its not the way of infrastructure as code is built and used.
    Portal handles everything ontop of it so I just make sure backups works and check logs daily.

    Also my hosting has never been a main focus of income its been more develope my self and have some customers happy. Just now lately its been fun setting up new vps services and let other ppl enjoy things working good and cheap. I havent sold much from the websites as Im refered to directly from other companies to sell services.
