The quality of service and network is also widely different and varied. Hetzner are awesome for the cost, don't get me wrong. But at times their network is terrible and their service seems to vary hugely.

You don't get these problems with Softlayer, you pay significantly more and get significantly better almost-guaranteed service.

If you're looking for tier-1 network traffic, 100tb.com is with Softlayer, and since they have so many servers, they get massive discounts and can give you 100TB of softlayer traffic for relativly cheap.

I see. I haven't tried them personally, my friend has been using them for a year now and so far so good. He did complain about their support though.

We've been using 100TB exclusively for over 2 years now and absolutely no problems. Their support has been top-notch in my opinion.
