MQL5 VPS: Has anyone used it?

[nicom55]

Has anyone used the MQL5 VPS offer? Here: https://www.mql5.com/en/vps

I currently use ForexVPS, but I checked out the server ping to my broker from the MQL5 VPS and it seems to be faster, so I may switch to the MQL5 one. 

Questions for anyone who is using it/has used it: 

1.) Does your subscription $15/month work for more than 1 MT5/MT4 terminal? Or you pay that fee for every MT5/MT4 terminal?

2.) How has the quality been? Any issues? Would you recommend/not recommend it? 

Thank you!

With MQL5 VPS you don't get access to the virtual server as with traditional VPS, but you can monitor your migrated trading environment, your EAs, indicators and signal subscription through the Journal and Experts logs.

So, right click in your MQL5 VPS >> Journals and then you can select to view the Terminal or Experts log, from the upper left corner of the Journal window.

as per the threads that sergey showed: only 1 terminal; and 1 trading account -- per 1 vps.

2. quality for me has been great every time. there is no better vps for its use, however, it is very different; only suited for those who have a bit more technical ability than most.

There are cheaper vps's but if it suites your requirements, and your eas do not require dlls, and you do not need to see the charts, mql5 vps is more convenient than a traditional vps; making up for the slightly extra cost.
