Always available to resolve your issues whenever you call customer service. The site is also always active. I just love host gator.
I was disappointed to learn that the SiteLock subscription I purchased did not cover fixing the security issues which it found. Instead, it suggested I hire someone else to do it, which I did. Very disappointed.
Very happy with the provider, no problems at all so fee but I especially appreciate the fact that they are contactable if required
Extremely disappointed with the nearly 50%! Increase in hosting. Am looking elsewhere
Efficient service thanks.
Your live help chat service is also great. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Idk what to say, I got everything that I needed, without any problems so, all good, keep it up
I was told if I paid for email protection for *******@nozomifinancial.net that I would stop receiving massive spam mail. I said ok, paid for the protection than immediately starting receiving even more Spam than before….
They figured it out it was a dns problem. That i made thanks, ron
The staff is very professional and patient, and was able to resolve the issue of my website!
No problem to get websites up and running. Always been prompt and courteous.
So far there has been no issues it has been a great host for my start up
We have found HostGator to be very reliable, secure, and simple to use.
It was an expensive service. Last year, you decided to increase the price for way over the inflation rate. But the most disappointing thing was how the tech support worsened significantly, and I did lots of them. The pages were all way too slow, and that was not my programming, because I managed to migrate them to other hosting service and suddenly they were way faster.
So I decided to move to Hostinger, which was easier, better, faster, cheaper and with better tech support.
Very good, easy to use and learn, it's been a great experience
I'm not very tech savvy and in the beginning I had some misunderstanding/small issues with the hosting service but tech support was able to help me remedy the issues and get my website working properly. Service has been great since.
Answer: SITEGROUND FIXED IN HOURS WHAT HOSTGATOR DID NOT OR COULD NOT FIX IN 9 DAYS
Answer: The chat will get you to someone but they will never know what to do to help you. Courteous but useless.
