Ngroups boasts dual data centers which allow connection to Usenet either through the US or EU. Retention is at 100 das for binararies.  Ngroups has plans ranging from 2 days with 1 GB caps at $2.00 to $40.00 three month memberships that are unmetered.  Besides the usual array of features of most other Usenet providers, NGgroups also has a reseller programs for webmasters as well.

Features
Ngroups offers 100 day binary retention for both US and EU. Service is fast and reliable, as well as the completion rates. Text retention is about 700+ days.



Support
Support is available via email only. The help section is less than expected with very little information for the novice usenet user.



Conclusion
Ngroups is an okay service. They offer 100 day binary retention, which is its biggest attribute alongside offering services to the EU as well as the US. Support sections leave a bit to be desired, and lack more of the interesting features that similarly priced plans from competitors offer. Overall, NGroups would not be one of our top choices but still isnt anything to sneer at.
