Review Of News Razor
According the available information, this provider appeared in the year of 2007. They describe themselves as a new company providing the best possible usenet access experience. Besides the usenet access, they do not offer any other Internet-related services. They also claim to have built all-new infrastructure that has cutting edge servers and storage systems that make them one of the fastest and most reliable usenet services available. Currently, they offer the access to more than 107,000 groups. Let’s also mention that their website is simply great. Modern design, vast of information and they even have the blog section. Let’s take a closer look to what they have to offer.
Servers
In the beginning, they had small datacenter in San Antonio, Texas. As a time has passed by, they included several other clusters located across the United States and finally, added the server in Europe. The servers are available at the following addresses:
- news.newsrazor.net (available through ports 119 or alternatively 443 or 8080)
- ssl.news.newsrazor.net (secure access using encrypted SSL over ports 563 or alternatively 80 or 81)
- news-europe.newsrazor.net (European NNTP servers accessible using port 119 or alternatively 443 or 8080)
- ssl.news-europe.newsrazor.net (secure European access using encrypted SSL over ports 563 or alternatively 80 or 81)
Up to 20 concurrent connections are available, depending on the package. They do not cap, throttle or limit connections to their service, meaning, the user will get the maximum speed available from his or her Internet service provider.
Retention and completion
The binary retention is over 601 days, text retention is over 1400 days and the completion is over 99%, meaning, they provide the access to over 99% of articles posted worldwide on the usenet network.
Pricing
There are 3 packages available:
- Titanium Razor – $14.95 (Unlimited Bandwidth, 20 Connections)
- Gold Razor – $9.95 (25GB Bandwidth, 20 Connections)
- Gold Razor – $4.95 (5GB Bandwidth, 20 Connections)
They have decided to offer a new special offer on their Premium Titanium Razor package, offering a discounted rate for the first 3 months.
Privacy
They never sell or distribute personal information to the third sides and they don’t log the activities of each particular user. All they aggregate are totals for tracking account usage statistics. They also have advanced anti-spam protection so the user is protected from this type of messages.
Recommendation
Although new one, we can say that they are very good provider. The retention times are very good and the pricing is good as well.
