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.

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.

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?

Excellent hosting provider I am using Knownhost since Aug 2023. They have best support times as well as support problem solving, Their VPS and Dedicated hosting both are amazing. I tried a lot of hosting before but now I can see Knownhost is one of the best. Thank to Knownhost and their team members. 😍

Knownhost HORRIBLE service Their support is terrible, so much time wasted EVERY time we open a ticket. Too much back and forth due to their inefficiencies and complete lack of process and consistency. We will be taking our business elsewhere, and I suggest anyone that relies on tech support to do the same. There are tons of hosting companies out there, no need to tolerate this.
