Digiweb Hosting Reviews and Expert Opinion

Uptime & Reliability

Quality Uptime

The uptime with this company is quite good from what I can tell.  They use high quality hardware and offer some nice features such as backups and anti-spam options to avoid problems.  I also didn't find anyone complaining about the reliability of the hosting when I looked.  Unfortunately, I also didn't see any type of uptime guarantee on their site, so that might make some people worry a little.

Features

Mostly Standard Features

The features with this company are all pretty standard.  For the shared hosting, you will have limits on disk space, email accounts, bandwidth and teh number of sites you can host.  All of these limits are fairly high though so you aren't going to run into issues unless you select a package that is too small for you anyway.  As you move up to VPS or dedicated servers, the limits are also nice and high so you shouldn't run into trouble.

They offer you site backup options and you can choose from either Linux or Windows for their VPS and dedicated servers.  They also have an 'instant install' option for their VPS and dedicated servers so that you can get up and running very quickly.   The hardware they use in their servers is quite advanced so that you aren't likely to run into issues related to that.

While there isn't too much that really stands out from the competition, there isn't really anything missing either so the chances are you'll have a good experience with Digiweb when it comes to the features they offer.

Support

Easy Tech Support

You can get in touch with their tech support via phone or email any time and they have a good level of skill to get you up and running fast.  The tech support is based in Ireland too so you don't need to worry about any language issues that are common with tech support.  They have a good knowledgebase available to provide you with help on things, and they also have a nice FAQ.  Overall, the tech support with this company is going to be very helpful.

Pricing

Varied Pricing Options

This company has some really great pricing options as well as some that aren't so good so you will want to be careful.  On their VPS options, for example, they have an entry level option that is just 9.99 Euro per month, which is a great deal when you look at the features you are getting.  The higher level VPS, however is 99.99 and the features are better but I don't think they are really worth that price.

The shared hosting is all priced by the year and is quite low for the entry level options, at just 19.99 per year.  The 'enterprise' level shared hosting, however is 299.99 per year, which is a little high.  The bottom line is you just need to be a little careful and find the option that will meet your needs without being too expensive.

Summary

Nice Irish Hosting

If you're lookign for hosting in Ireland, this is a pretty good company to consider.  They have been around for a while and have proven themselves to be a good hosting provider.  While there are some concerns here and there, most people will find that they have a very good experience with them.

Pros:

• Lots of hosting options
• Some very good prices
• Nice Site Builder

Cons:

• Prices on some packages are high
• No databases on entry level shared hosting
