| Latest positive review | |  Long time customer Laura Sedor, I’ve been a customer of IONOS for years and am satisfied with the service I receive. If I have a problem, someone is there to assist personally shortly. The hosting is stable and easy to use. |
| Latest negative review |  Combell, the sinking ship Waldo Anonymos, Like many others, I used to be a client of a great hosting company (Byte) that got bought by Combell. Combell then cuts off all the innovation, client service. If you dont pay attention, you pay very premium prices for servic... More es that they offer for free to new clients. When you ask to get the free feaures for new clients; no. When asked to get a 24 hour increase for database limit' no. They force you to abandon ship. Try Cloudflare or Cloudways etc. You will be relieved and happy you didnt leave Combell years ago. Just cheack their features: 128 MB ram They force me to keep paying another 38 euro's for a free Let's Encrypt Cancellation on a year basis! Terrible. Less |  Don't waste your money Mary Buorno, What I like is the price and the servers never seem to fail. What I don't like is the lies they market. You won't have support because every time you click on support, the website asks you to login (despite already being logg... More ed in) and puts you through a continual loop. You're suppose to have wordpress come with ionos for free, but there is no way to do this without paying wordpress huge monthly fees. Their website builder is terrible, you can't do much with it and it just doesn't run very well. Honestly, just save your time and money by going to dreamhost - they are WAY better. Less |
