I have two servers, one in Amsterdam and one in California. Been a client for a little over a year and both have been runing smooth without any downtime.

Latest positive review | | I have a well-settled online business of crockeries. For that business I have a shared hosting plan with Chemicloud. Until then I haven’t got any issue with their service. Currently, I am launching my new website home decore ... More for that I got Domainracer ‘s shared hosting. First, I was scared but now I am very satisfied with their initial startup support and all.

Latest negative review | Please be careful when choosing this company . I chose a VPS from this company and paid annually. As soon as I installed the lnmp environment, The VPS server was closed, the company support saying that I was sending spam, and... More then I filed a protest. After reinstalling the system, it turned on again. I continued to install lnmp and actively closed port 25. When I slept, I found that the service was terminated. The reason was still spam, So I asked them to investigate this situation and refund. At the time of purchase, their website clearly stated that there was a 30-day money-back guarantee. As a result, they refused my refund request. I asked them to actively check my behavior on the server because of their so-called spam, I did not send it. But they do not respond to my request. There is another weird thing. At the beginning of the service, I could not log in to their vps server with ssh. After I sent a service order request, I could log in. I suspect that they control the client's server for improper gain, or that the server is completely hacked. Please be cautious. Less | I used it for 2 years and as a Senior Developer, I would not recommend this to anyone. They miss interpreted the word grace period once they came to know I m not going to continue first they asked to pay for the grace period ... More and then suspended the account 10 hours before ending the grace period and insisted to buy for one more month to recover the data if required. I have used many hosting services including aws, godaddy, BlueHost, hostgator, Contabo, OVS, etc for different clients in my entire professional career but chemcloud is very opportunist. also, their technical staff is so much incompetent that often they refuse to install some packages or install them in a way that is not useful and generates issues. Personally, I would not recommend it to any of my clients. Less |
