I don't find the platform particularly intuitive or easy to use. Right now, I was looking for help and it took me to a page where I was not logged in, after being logged in.

Updated review

New cpanel is clunky and slow to get to key features (e.g. File manager). Support (e.g. Via chat) is very slow & often not that knowledgeable. Very frequent technical issues with. I spend more time talking to Bluehost support than any other service support, this years hours and hours. On top of all that pricing has gone up hugely and despite being customers for over a decade we do not feel at all valued, either when speaking to support, when being offered pricing, or for instance with the recent threat to introduce quite strict new restrictions on account usage. Coupled with website downtime and significant email problems over the years, Bluehost can often feel like a very frustrating experience.

Something is going wrong, my websites are crashing. Wordpress is not updating well. And your technical team is not sorting well the problem.

Horrible Customer support
December 15, 2023

Horrible Customer support. Twice they hung up the online chat in my face. The first one was when I asked to speak with a supervisor because I couldn't communicate with the advisor. The second time they disabled all my plugins and then they hung up the chat, leaving me to have to manually re-install all the plugins. Just awful.
