dedicated server hosting or VM hosting

Hello
Does anyone have any experience and suggestions for a dedicated server host or a company offering VM hosting.

Using google gives me a million options so i figured id see if anyone used such a service.

Not looking to spend the earth but i would like to be able to host:
exchange
sharepoint
so it would need to be a windows box.

Thanks in advance.

if VM do any sort of hosting you should find it on their as I would assume its a business product you are after, but you dont have to be a business.

or speak to their sales team on the 0800 number its on the site!

I'm using Donhost at the moment, I was a bit reticent about getting a dedicated server with them as they're 'owned' by Pipex but so far I've had no bother at all and there's at least 200 hosting accounts on the box, might be worth a look.

www.ovh.com do some great hosting deals. If you can get through the site in french their support and control panel is all in English. Very good deals for £40 a month on there too. I'm moving there from my current host after new year.

I've been using servstra (http://www.servstra.com) for quite a while now

Did have a misunderstanding with their support once over a cpanel issue, they downgraded it to stable tree (10.x) from current tree (11.x) and left it in a non working state and it didn't actually fix the issue I reported

But to be fair to them it was an isolated incident and their support team are usually very helpful considering what they don't charge much more than a lot of the unmanaged providers they are certainly worth a look.

I prefer to manage most things myself but there have been times when I've not been able or not wanted to do something its nice to just be able to send them a quick email and have them do it for me.

soft layer usually get some good reviews (http://softlayer.com)

Edit: Seem servstra doesn't do windows hosting, sorry forgot to check that just assumed they would.
