GBDaniel N was so helpful Daniel N was so helpful. He stayed with me for two hours (!) while I worked with my site hosting company to resolve several serious errors on my website. He knew what he was doing, even when my web hosting company did not, and was very patient and supportive to resolve things that were well above my 'tech grade'. The feeling when you read the words "Everything fixed now" is such a relief. Many thanks!

GBService Improved In the last 8 months or so, I've frequently relied on Westhost's customer service, having been a customer for over a decade. The improvement in service quality is evident and commendable. I'm content with my chosen package and its cost, feeling assured of value. A recent incident where my server was mistakenly closed reminded me of a past issue when backups were a concern. However, this time, Westhost promptly reopened my server and resumed email service within 5 minutes, showcasing their enhanced efficiency and reliability.

GBWesthost is a nightmare Westhost sends an email saying, "congratulations, your website migration is complete and was successful." Not until several screenloads below does the email say that you must take action within just 7 days or they will take down your website and delete your emails. No forewarning. No urgent reminders. No subject line warning. Furthermore, it says that you must update your DNS records but not exactly what changes to make. The email migration itself causes problems, with email readers on windows, Android, and Apple not correctly reflecting folders and their contents. In short, a nightmare. Yet you cannot get though to costumer support by chat, phone, or email, which is undoubtedly flooded from the mess they have created for their customers. At the same time, hosting prices are rising. In short, time for a new host. Suggestions?

CAIt's now been a week and no resolution… It's now been a week and no resolution from Westhost. My email servers still dont work and its costing me business. Received a few unhelpful emails, nothing to address the problems. They said they have too many service tickets so they cant call to help me, but if I email my exact issues they will help. I sent multiple emails to the address the auto responder sent to me here, but no response. I did receive an email telling me that I had opened too many service tickets and I'm not being helpful?!? but in that email didnt address the issues or try to help. What a useless company . They take your money, cause problems and then hide! beware and stay away from Westhost!!

GBScott L Scott L. was extremely helpful to assist me with switching back and forth between PHP 7.4 and 8.0 to identify issues we were having with a WP theme. We were able to expose issues with the theme to confirm our assumptions it is time to migrate to a new WP theme that is more compatible and supported by developers for PHP 8.0. Scott was patient, willing, and articulate and providing easy clear support.
