Mar. 11, 2017 Reliability 10 Pricing 10 User Friendly 10 Support 8.0 Features 10 I signed up with A Small Orange despite seeing many bitter reviews on the internet. I've been using ASO shared (small) plan f... More or 3 months. Never experienced any issue with their service. I've monitored my website uptime with Jetpack plugin of wordpress and tested speed, server response time regularly. Never experienced any downtime in last 3 months. Pingdom shows my website is faster than the 98% website. Actually, so far I'm very happy with their service. It is true that their support ticket is very slow and they took almost two weeks to reply my ticket about registering a new domain. But I never had to wait more than 3 minutes to get live chat support. My ticket was solved instantly via live chat. Another good thing about ASO is their server name and user area interface is very unique and user friendly. Hope ASO will remain consistent with their good service. Best wishes for ASO team! Less
Latest negative review	On The Decline Mar. 21, 2021 Reliability 6.0 Pricing 2.0 User Friendly 2.0 Support 2.0 Features 2.0 I've used Rackspace for about a decade for our business and our clients. At one point we ran about 150 cloud servers with the... More m, as well as their storage, CDN, and DNS. They had great pricing, they were super reliable, and their support was great. Now they are far more expensive than their competitors, they offer no support (unless you want to pay an addition $100 / server), their backup system is unreliable, and to top it all off, now that their support is worthless they've added a "support" fee to your account that varies based on how many of their products you are using (the more products, the higher the price). We are down to our last server on rackspace, waiting on clients to update some IP addresses and we will be done with Rackspace for good. As a side note, they are still leaps and bounds better than A2, which this website keeps popping up ads for.

Each time I've engaged with Small Orange, I always walk away annoyed and frustrated. It seems such a self-centrist business with zero regard for customer experience. Simply awful. I'm looking for a new host. Less
