Great hosting provider.
Kent Vitus,
Good customer service. HosterPlan has always answered our questions. The ease of adding SSL to our sites was a big factor in our choice to use their platform.

| Latest positive review | |  Great Support and Price Grant Oakes, I've used Hostwinds for nearly 2 years and they have been excellent during my stay. However, I am looking at leaving because they have IP issues, mainly, some of the major (Gmail, Outlook, MSN, etc) ISP's block email traffic,... More claiming it's SPAM. Apparently, they have some SPAMMERS on their servers and some IP blocks are blacklisted. I have been forced to get a Gmail account so I can send outbound emails, which is a major pain. I've raised this issue with tech support too many times to count but the problem persists. I'd love to stay with them but I have to move on. Less |
| Latest negative review |  Bad Services Tony Holland, Where do I start? What a misuse of a day. To begin with, they put me on a LA worker, not a Washington DC worker as I requested. Reaction times were terrible, both website pages and backing. What's more, at that point, I disco... More ver there is a 8000 thing limit when vi ewing alist by ftp. All things considered, I have more than 12000 pictures, so I was unable to see every one of them by ftp (which is my prefered decision to erase/rename them). Their answer? Really awful, it is in our terms and conditions, it is for security. Their answer? Overhaul!!! Obviously. Along these lines, when I asked how it was terrible security for the arrangement I purchased however by one way or another not for their superior arrangement, I got no reaction. I think about this truly sharp practice and, furthermore, simply Google the issues they have encountered on their LA workers. What a joke, a sham, a misuse of a day. Less | Terrible hosting STEPHANIE GILLUM, Terrible hosting. Even one Wordpress site does not work on the "Ultimate Business" tariff plan!!! The support service does not solve the problem! When I don't use the site, the RAM is not used. As soon as I work with the site... More , I do elementary things: creating a new Wordpress page, adding a product, then the RAM is working at maximum and the site gives a 503 error. This can't be on a simple Wordpress site. Your hosting works disgusting! Less |
