More le READ THIS: 7 years now dealing with AWS I cannot explain how many times they have gone beyond what their rules and Regs and policies are to HELP, SUPPORT and maintain whatever it takes for AWS to serve and keep us as a client. They are the NUMBER 1 Company and they already WON Best Customer Support globally as far as I am concerned Less	Very good experience. ... Mar. 11, 2017 Reliability 10 Pricing 10 User Friendly 10 Support 8.0 Features 10 I signed up with A Small Orange despite seeing many bitter reviews on the internet. I've been using ASO shared (small) plan f... More or 3 months. Never experienced any issue with their service. I've monitored my website uptime with Jetpack plugin of wordpress and tested speed, server response time regularly. Never experienced any downtime in last 3 months. Pingdom shows my website is faster than the 98% website. Actually, so far I'm very happy with their service. It is true that their support ticket is very slow and they took almost two weeks to reply my ticket about registering a new domain. But I never had to wait more than 3 minutes to get live chat support. My ticket was solved instantly via live chat. Another good thing about ASO is their server name and user area interface is very unique and user friendly. Hope ASO will remain consistent with their good service. Best wishes for ASO team! Less
Latest negative review	Stay AWS from 1000 miles! Apr. 4, 2021 Reliability 2.0 Pricing 2.0 User Friendly 2.0 Support 2.0 Features 2.0 AWS is really horrible, don't know how such big companies made shitty products. I have a bucket on AWS S3, and have some back... More up files in this. But, when my project is ended, I am unable to terminate the bucket, their bucket termination process is super slow, the system deleting file one by one, also the termination process cannot run on background, so if you close the page the process will be stopped. We have no other choice instead of keeping our computer on for 3-4 days and delete the bucket keeping the screen on.

Each time I've engaged with Small Orange, I always walk away annoyed and frustrated. It seems such a self-centrist business with zero regard for customer experience. Simply awful. I'm looking for a new host. Less
