GBCustomer 3 Years I'm seriously impressed by Knownhost. I have their VPS2 product get a pay ahead discount so that knocks the cost down even more. Their pricing is on par with other hosts out there but their uptime is the impressive part. I literally question the monitoring service when I get an alert because it's usually one ping that failed and when I go to my site(s) on my phone they work. I'm actually considering rewriting the api for an app I created from ASP.NET WebAPI to NodeJS just so I can host my app with Knownhost... I have my app with Microsoft Azure and their product is about 3 times as much and way slower. It would be about a 400 hour ordeal to rewrite the entire backend, still it's being considered.

PKWorst experience they can scam you I was using their services since 2019, their renewal rates were increased and they pushed me to use upgraded reseller package. I decided to move my files from their server and then happened the WORST thing, They told me on chat that i would be able to move my files till Tuesday, They suddenly suspended my services and asked me to pay 20 Usd in order to access my WHM for 2 minutes to download the backup. I had long discussion with their support team and they were just forcing me to pay money.. My website was down for 4 hours just to wait for their support to respond.Their support team is poor and they can Scam you. I have left 4 Usd in their so called in house credit that they overcharged, just to show how faulty their system is. Stay away and choose a better Web host...!!

CAUsed over 15 web hosts - Known Host are #1 Tried many hosts over the 30+ years I have been running websites. I can't say enough good things about Known Host. They are always so responsive, and time and time again provide excellent customer service. I was motivated to write this review after the employee Nivin P. went above and beyond to help resolve an issue on one of my websites. The level of support they offered was incredible and i just wanted to single them out personally for that amazing level of support.

GB5.5 years of service, couldn't be happier After 5.5 years, we couldn't be happier. Primo managed service and top notch support staff. Ticket responses come in within minutes and the staff often goes above and beyond. Over that timeframe we've submitted a few hundred tickets ranging from minor (help installing an extension) to major (critical service down) and each was resolved timely and professionally. A few years ago we had an issue with an older PHP site that had malware maliciously installed. They were alerted to it, locked down the account, notified us, and even went to the extent of identifying how it was installed (unpatched, known problematic PHP library). After cleaning up the files and removing the unneeded library, the site was back up and running quickly. Knownhost also has an extremely helpful Discord server with management and support staff always available. Tickets are best if there's an active problem but I've picked the brains of the staff in Discord countless times when I've got a question or concern. I'm not sure how we got by before Knownhost.

GBLook elsewhere About a month ago, complete outage at their data center in Seattle left many of us customers down for a day. There was no backup plan or process so to speak. They had to restore things manually. And even then things went wrong - it didn't help that the admins were in the forums being antagonistic about people's responses. Then today in the middle of the work day, our server goes offline. Email, domain... etc. Notify tech support and they inform me that they were moving the VPS between nodes and that there would be a period of downtime. Were we notified? No. Could they have done such a move after hours? Probably. Complete joke and a train wreck of a company.
