Lack of DDoS Protection Over the years, what was previously a 5-star service has degraded into a rather unhealthy and frankly appalling partnership. Hivelocity currently hosts around five machines, making up around 5% of our infrastructure overall. Of the numerous DCs we have worked with over the years, they have put in place more null routes on those 5 machines in one night, than we have received over a 7-year period across the other 95% of our infrastructure. Their DDOS 'mitigation', even at the paid level isn't mitigation, but instead a direct null of the IP address. There appears to be no filtering as part of the paid service. Support appears to have no understanding of how DDOS attacks work, and simply null route an IP address until an attack subsides - that doesn't feel particularly effective, given we have been forced into an outage due to their lack of protection for 5 hours so far this morning. Appalling service overall.

Maybe Customer Service Isn't Dead In a world where customer service is dead, Hivelocity really stands out. Their technicians are fast, knowledgeable, and friendly. They don't throw the ball back over the wall; instead, they work with you to find a resolution. I've been with Hivelocity for over a decade and couldn't be happier.

Eli from NY is a great resource We've been a colocation customer for about a year now. I wanted to come here to praise one specific employee. Eli from Hivelocity's NY dc is one of the nicest people I have ever met in my life. He genuinely cares about our experience, always wants to help us with problems, and provides excellent advice in all situations we have needed it. I don't usually write reviews but I had to come here to talk about him. He has made our Hivelocity experience great and I really appreciate him for it.

Hivelocity continues to impress I've had servers with Hivelocity for nearly 5 years now. In that time I've yet to experience a single network drop. We've had a few instances of hardware failing, however the support team is always on top of it quickly and usually has a resolution in less than an hour. I had a problem with a Linux server that I just couldn't solve. I contacted support and they were able to identify the problem. Resolve it and get my services back online with little downtime. This really saved us from a world of trouble. So far hosting with HV has been a great call.

Fantastic service Fantastic service. I've been with Hivelocity for about 8 years now. Being a novice, they are superb getting me through lots of issues I've faced over the years. From migration to simple DNS issues I had faced, their support to billings everything has been utter bliss. I don't think I'll be switching anytime in the future, they have gotten a customer for life.
