Absolutely awful tech support if something actually goes wrong. I had multiple issues for years and you can never get direct access to help. You start back at the beginning every time with a new agent (who really doesn't believe you).

Navigation is not intuitive at all. When I call in with issues that the site is down, I get mysterious resolutions with no explanation for root cause, so the problem recurs and I have no clue.

Bluehost has been a great platform for our website. Any issues we've had, which have been minor, have been fixed quickly and efficiently!

Got a message my personal information was exposed, but when I clicked through it I couldn't resolve issue. Apart from that, it's great

I've had chronic issues with my certificates, with accessing my WP websites, and with reinstalling the websites after I removed them. Support agents are always polite, but they seem to be working off exactly the same script. In fact, they don't seem human.

Aside from the minor website maintenance that has rarely happened at night while working, this has been a great service. The website maintenance is completely understandable anyway.

It seems I can never get to my file manager to update my website. I don't like your new design.

I can no longer sign on to my email account from my desktop. I am blocked from sending emails to an email address that I was able to send in the past. I do not get good results from chat and you do nor permit phone support. I am very dissatisfied.

It's very difficult to design things to be unique and look dynamic if you want to individualize the theme.

I am on here for the 4th time in less than a month because my emails are being blocked by Spamhaus. The first round took me 4 days with out email to get a tech that was able to fix the problem. I am VERY unhappy with the service I am getting from Bluehost these days.

1. In recent years support has gone down the tubes. 1st it's hard to reach support and once you do they are often not trained properly.

I have struggled a bit with putting my website together. Some things are not as intuitive as I would like to see and I get frustrated with having to keep buying services to improve the website. I guess its the cost of doing business.
