Keeping them

Jul 16 2012

Time spent here with winhost is all good, they handle any issue with an ease other hosts do not have. When there are problems, and some do arise, they are fast to attend to it for me which scores high points with me.

Just fine

Jun 14 2012

Winhost is doing a good job, they occasionally have some hiccups but they keep moving forward and fix them as they arise. My experience with other hosts has been much worse so I think these people are good.

Solid Company

Jan 11 2012

Winhost is a solid company. You get 200% of what you should expect for $4.95 per month. This includes unlimited number of sites, one ms sql 2008 database, php support, asp .net support up to 3.5, silverlight and tens of other microsoft technologies. Big advantage is also the forum where you can ask questions not necesairly related to hosting (like programming issues etc.) and where you get fast answers from their staff. In fact, I can't think of anything bad about this company...

No Main Issues

Jan 14 2012

I have been with WinHost for seven months. I have not had 1 negative issue. I have not ever opened a support ticket or talked to the help desk, because everything works as it is suppose to. The Control Panel is designed very well and meets all my needs. I love the way they set up SQLServer. When accessing my SQLServer DBs from other hosts it would take forever because they would include all DBs from all other hosters. My DBs from WinHost come up very quickly. I have never noticed a down time. I've never had any issues with billing. I understand scoring all 10's sounds suspicious, but I have not had one problem with WinHost. How else can I score?

I can't say that from my other host. I am in the process of transfering everything to WinHost.

Also, I believe the prices are very competetive. The SSL price is very reasonable.

Winhost Loyal

Jan 12 2012

I've been with winhost for a couple of years now. I have had a good experience with them. The couple of times that I have contacted tech support, they were helpful and knowledgable. I have about 8 sites on their server. Mostly static html, soms PHP and Javascript. I've only seen my sites go down for a short period of time a while back. I was with registerfly before westhost and have had a much better experience with winhost and would recommend them.

As good as it gets

Jan 13 2012

I have been with westhost since 06 and they definatelly did major uodates, I manage a dedicated server with them, no problems at all. If I need anyting they have live 24 hours chat so I can chat at any time I want.

Disadvantage: They have their own control panel so it was little difficult to adjust. But on the other hand, no hacker attacks. Also adding more domains on your curent hosting package is limited and of course their dedicated prices are high.

Advanatage: Great suport and so far I had no downtime in any way.
