Latest positive review | I've been hosting my business site on WinHost for about 15 years now. I use Visual Studio to write and deploy .NET web/server code and use their SQL Server to store data. They made it easy to install a phpBB bulletin board... More . I didn't use any of their other fancy app installs (WordPress, etc), as I mostly just write stuff from scratch in Visual Studio. I think they are generous with their storage offerings for the price, I've typically gotten good customer service, and server response times are fast. Less | Is amazing the speed, is super easy set up a server, install apps the price is ok, for sure I will recommend it to anyone, my installation is wordpress and works very, very fast that helps me a lot when Im creating webs |
Latest negative review | I have had my website down 4 times in the last three months for more than 8 hours at a time. There is no redundancy whatsoever and this is there response when I asked why their website did not go down just the customers. I ha... More ve an international website with 30,000 students and this down time is too costly and ridiculous. "The blackhole routing is for a specific IP range. The Winhost main site, as well as many of my clients, are not hosted within that range." So their site does not go down... but everyone else does. WTF Less | I could not describe a more useless understanding that this company members have of Western customers and practises. If you want our bucks give us the service we require. Tired of this nomadic tax havean located and low cos... More t labors greedy business model. Technically they are just a reseller. Less |
