It's good to hear from you Matt, I've had Bytemark/BigV recommended to me half a dozen times, as well as seeing you sponsoring conferences since ~2007.

I guess your life is made easier than many of the hosting companies by not offering shared hosting, and (from the impression I've got) generally working with larger clients. So none of those issues of upgrading PHP and finding clients' sites stop working, or having 1000 hacked and exploited Wordpress-hosting accounts to deal with each morning. If you encounter them, how do you mitigate those two scenarios?

DSVR brings back memories - I used them in 2002-2003? They had such a reputation... and then just disappeared off the radar!

Speaking as someone who is involved in a couple of charities, each of which has a single VM, Bytemark's not all about big clients. Their support has always been excellent.
I was thinking 'big' in terms of "Able to justify a VM plus sysadmin/management contract". Which is big in terms of most of the hosting industry's clients :)
