I cannot recommend NewServerLife enough! From the very beginning, their service has been nothing short of exceptional. The team is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring customer satisfaction every step of the way. No matter the question or issue, they’re always quick to respond with clear and helpful solutions, making even the most complex tasks feel manageable. Their attention to detail and commitment to delivering top-notch support truly set them apart from the rest. It’s rare to find a company that consistently goes above and beyond to make sure their customers are not just satisfied but genuinely happy with their experience. NewServerLife has exceeded all my expectations, and I’m so grateful for their outstanding service. I’m truly thankful to be part of their services and look forward to supporting them as a lifelong customer. Their dedication has earned my trust and loyalty for years to come! If you're looking for a reliable and fast performing server/services paired with amazing staff of support, look no further! If you have any problems, don't hesitate to reach out to them—they'll fix it quickly or advise you. - Ebad

I purchased two Dell R730 servers from NewServerLife, and I am very happy with my purchases. I added 10Gb PCI-E NIC to both servers, powered them up, and loaded the OS on them, and they both worked wonderfully!!!

Although build phase is longer than expected, server arrive quick and without any issue, literally plug and go. It would be even better if they offered the high performance heat sink option for additional which will be great if the user decide to upgrade the processor in the future.

Ordered several Dell R730 servers for our small business. Customer service was great helping me get the setup I needed for the job. Items were packed very well to keep them safe during shipping. They were shipped out the morning after I completed my order, all in all very happy with their product and service. Would happily recommend them to anyone.
