lately had to downgrade due to the Covid Situation to save costs where I can and Hawk Host were super helpful as always in assisting which triggered my intentions of writing a positive review as they did not resist or try to upsell me, but supported my actions.

Over the years I've opened more than 50 support requests with Hawk Host and have almost always received a response within 12 hours - and no later than 24 hours - even on weekends. I would consider Hawk Host to be extremely valuable and reliable, and good value for money. |

t to be honest, that comes with a price (issues and tickets), while on Hostwinds the price really allows you to have peace of mind, it's good, IMHO trustworthy, I'm happy there.

*Specifics:* In my case I build every aspect of my websites, no wordpress at all, and I can say having my websites at Hostwinds has worked pretty well. The only issues I found were about a bad configuration on max emails per hour but that was fixed quickly once it was diagnosed. The limit (at the time of my issue) was set per account, not per domain. I'm using Ultimate (shared hosting) and while I do have decent traffic on several websites, I don't have issues with resources except from perhaps 4 random days total (separated with few minutes episodes each) in over a couple of years but that was not caused by my account (remember, shared hosting), they quickly addressed the problem so I believe they have good monitoring. Been hosting webs since 1998 on several companies and I'm quite happy with HostWinds. Nobody paid me to write this, I'm just a happy customer and I know what's like to search for options when you need a trustworthy hosting. I would love Hostwinds having a program of points that would allow you discounts, that would be great because I've been there for some years and as things are going I will stay for some more (hope so). |

is unreachable. Don't act like you care you happily take these bad reviews for the money you scam off people. I dont have much money because of corona and hostwinds hosed me for $108. Looks like I wont have much to eat for the upcoming month. Im sure P H is enjoying my money on his yacht right now while I sit here not knowing what im going to eat for tomorrow
