Reliability
Strong, Fast and Efficient
There isn’t much in the form of reviews that we can really go by at the moment, not reviews that we can take as creditable anyway. However, they do state that a 99.9% uptime is guaranteed with their servers, and they boast that stability is a central part to their product solutions. With continual server upgrades and backups on hand, Dewlance are going places.
Features
Plenty of Features to Get Stuck Into
Under the shared hosting platform you will be greeted with plenty of features that will have you nodding your head (especially when you move on to the price). Whether its CPanel you need as a fundamental part of your server management, or plenty of databases to shake a stick at, Dewlance have ticked off a lot of basic features. The only area they lack is disk space, which for small sites that only need 1GB is fine, but for sites that require ten times more than that, then Dewlance probably isn’t for you.
Shared hosting plans start at the bronze level with servers in the US and the UK. The bronze level options include 1GB of disk space, 100GB a month of bandwidth, firewall protection, free setup and many more features. Two subsequently higher levels have 2GB and 5GB of disk space, respectively, and other features upgraded for customer needs. Reseller hosting servers are located in Chicago, Illinois and start with 50GB of diskspace and 500GB a month of bandwidth. There are additional larger plans as well. Linux and Windows VPS hosting plans start with 15GB of disk space and 1000GB of bandwidth a month, depending on customer needs.
Domain services come at a yearly rate and options include registering, transfers and renewals. All domains have privacy protection, domain theft protection, domain forwarding, mail forwarding, and DNS service. They offer a number of domains such as .coms, .nets, and .orgs depending on what you are looking for.
Support
Indian Based Support Agents
Dewlance are an Indian owned, Indian run and Indian based company so sometimes language barriers may become an issue, and you do see this in the content on the site. If this doesn’t put you off then you can benefit from a client area, forum, and 24 hour live support for technical and customer facing queries.
This company guarantees a ticket response time within 1 hour of customer inquiry, and at the bottom of their support page, they noted an average response time of 18 minutes.
Pricing
Good pricing options
Bronze shared hosting packages start at $9 a year and cost more as the package options increase. These are very inexpensive options and cost less than $1 a month. Reseller hosting options start at $5 a month, and are still relatively inexpensive. Linux and Windows VPS hosting options start at $11.99 a month and compared to other sites, this is fairly average pricing.
Domain pricing starts at $10.67 a year for a .com address. This pricing is for registration, transferring, or renewal depending on what you are looking for. Other domains are fairly comparable in pricing, but a few run upwards of $30 a year such as a .tv or .co address. Domain services come with many features included. They also have a few options for free domains, but mostly those come with their package options with yearly subscriptions. However, they only offer a 24 hour money back guarantee for their services.
