Latest positive review | | Unni K is always helpful when we need support from KnownHost. They have the fastest support in the business and very competitive prices for VPS and Dedicated. |
Latest negative review | TSO Host used to be really good. Then they got bought out by Godaddy and that was it. They went down the toilet. Support is horrendous, servers are very slow and over loaded. No doubt Godaddy bought them out and then stripped... More back their support and increased the number of sites per server to order to increase profit at the cost of providing a decent service. Had to migrate all our sites away to a better provider. Less | I was using their services since 2019, their renewal rates were increased and they pushed me to use upgraded reseller package. I decided to move my files from their server and then happened the WORST thing, They told me on ch... More at that i would be able to move my files till Tuesday, They suddenly suspended my services and asked me to pay 20 Usd in order to access my WHM for 2 minutes to download the backup. I had long discussion with their support team and they were just forcing me to pay money.. My website was down for 4 hours just to wait for their support to respond.Their support team is poor and they can Scam you. I have left 4 Usd in their so called in house credit, that they overcharged me just to show how faulty their system is. Stay away and choose a better Web host...!! Less |
