Latest positive review | I have 4 years of using it and works perfect, support works, uptime works, they give me whm, etc... | I have very good experience with your website. I liked your services. If you want to any online services in Greece then you can visit our website. |
Latest negative review | I asked to have an upgrade of Python so that I could installed Django and it was denied. Their shared server has Python 2.7, and Python 3 was denied to be installed, which has been the standard version for many years (you are... More give a jail shell that restricts most installation). Their basic plan is way too restrictive. You have to get a non-shared server to get any serious work done there and pay lots of money. There is also no way to stop a payment once the invoice is done six weeks in advance. Turning off automatic payment does nothing once the invoice is done and there is no way to remove a credit card once added to do payments. Less | I have contacted support so many times, I have about 5 case numbers so far this year and STILL the same problem. This time, it only took 4 days until the problem came back. Youtube videos on our website do not display on an... More iphone. This happens OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER. It's just blank where they were. This is a huge problem for my band website and for my business website. Less |
