Look 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.

Runaway and do not look back try Nestify at least they listen So this company bought out Host Asset, which offered unlimited sites and great service. So when I was moved to Knownhost I was updating some sites and noticed that there was somethings that were not updating, after some research I found that I had to reinstall the site, well, that is when the scam was revealled. Because I signed up with HostAsset, and had unlimited, Knownhost refused to honor the agreement, while I could fight it, it is not worth it. Especially due to the slow hosting and bad customer service. Also, if you site is hacked due to their lack of security bad luck, you are on your own. They will block you access and then play games. Also, the abuse supervisor really needs to change the name, even tho he deserves abuse, they need to change it to something like the caring supervisor, even though that would be an oxymoron.

5.5 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.

Worst hosting experience ever. Worst hosting experience ever. My sites were constantly being hacked as compared to similar sites on a different host (based in Australia) that never seemed to be attacked. Their so called customer service consists of lots of cut and paste emails mainly. They had the audacity to take my site down on a Friday evening due to what they termed a phishing risk - had they checked they would have seen that I have removed the infected files. Because their "abuse team" only work bank hours - monday to friday, 9am-5pm - it meant my site was down the entire weekend. My client was having melt downs. Pleas to the "support team" were ignored - in fact they seemed to revel in the power they had over me. A really horrible, awful experience dealing with these guys. Totally unprofessional. I couldnt advise more strongly to look elsewhere. Yes they are cheap and like most things in life, you absolutely get what you pay for.

Trigger happy hosting provider Trigger happy hosting provider. They terminated my service because of "Network Abuse" which is a vague term that a bunch of inexperienced Sys Admins use when they see a spike in TCP connections in Nagios or whatever monitoring tool they use. They didn't bother to communicate with me what i was using the service for, just pulled the trigger right away. Obviously a bunch of Junior personnel working at this company. Stay away. EDIT: The illegal activities they mention in the reply are running an app i wrote to verify email addresses on their VPS. It literally just connects to a SMTP server and issues the VRFY command for a given email address which is not ILLEGAL in any way. Now even gaslighting Trustpilot reviews, how low can you go?
