Hostwinds stands as a formidable force in the realm of web hosting, delivering an exceptional blend of affordability and high-caliber service that is hard to match. Their commitment to offering top-notch solutions at competitive prices ensures that customers receive unparalleled value from the moment they engage with their services.
I started with a chat about how to add cPanel to My VPS... They redirected me to sales with a link and then, nothing. I finally found out how to do it myself.
I can say that Hostwinds hosting has met my expectations. I've had nothing but success when working with this professional web hosting provider. Special requests have always come through quickly and gracefully. I thought of moving to other hosts but this service is really good and I'm gonna stay with them for quite some time. When I asked all the necessary questions I needed and their support answered it politely I've decided to get an account.

I have had numerous things I needed help with, all stemming from the fact I'm a total novice when it comes to this kind of thing. Hostwinds have helped me through every step of getting my site up and running. Not only have they shown me how to fix any problems I've had, they've helped educate me in the process, too. They have truly gone above and beyond, and have been there to answer queries any time, day or night. Absolutely fantastic service!
I searched for best Site Hosting and they were recommended.
I spoke with their customer support in a live chat and they advised me which product I would need. The package they recommended provides excellent value for money compared to the competition, who were often asking several times more than I am now paying.

Hostwinds is one of the most powerful web hosting company I've ever seen. With low price product but and high quality of service, you cannot regret the moment you use this product.

I recently signed up with Hostwinds and I must say, the experience has been nothing short of fantastic. From the get-go, setting up my website was incredibly straightforward, thanks to their user-friendly interface.
Really glad to run my new website with Hostwinds - their shared hosting service is really stable and professional. I tend to place fairly technical support calls. In over 20 support calls (almost never for a problem, almost always for an implementation or coding question) I have never had worse than 15 mins first response, usually with an appropriate resolution. Calls that took longer clearly needed to take longer.

Ive renewed one site and am not renewing the other. That will follow when i get my act together.
So far so good! Thanks for your attention.
Pretty good.
Recomended to be because you are not worried about morre “adult” sites.
Facematt isnt in that category but RDJcreation might.
I bought their managed VPS Plans and asked them to set up WordPress with LEMP but they haven't installed NGINX due to which website was almost down for 24 hours then I decided to downgrade from Managed VPS to Unmanaged VPS lack of
Support expertise. I checked available upgrade options on their panel which generated an invoice which I haven't paid as I never wanted to make any other payment to them but they pulled the $109.33 without my permissions and when I asked the refund they said Refund is not possible.
Services are good enough you get a quick response from Level 1 Support but rest of other things are totally mess.
* Hostwinds attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
Great service and very easy. Really easy to do aeverything
I started registering the service on the Sunday afternoon and reach out to George on the online chat for help with the setting up the account. He jumped right into it and got everything ready for me to work on my VPS within 5 mins. Amazing!
Excellent

I had trouble with my card, and I was charged for 4 different servers.
Great products, service and quick responses. I'm very happy with the experience so far. The only negative aspect was that the pricing for the service listed both included and optional features, and I did not catch the difference in the language used (features included vs features offered). Besides that, the list of options available allowed me to tailor what I wanted and select my favorite OS.
Range of features and options allows me to get what I want.
Dylan was incredibly helpful and went to extremes to see that my issues were addressed. Asher was exceptional at answering my questions and overseeing the transfer.
It was a relatively painless experience, with no technical issues.
The only reason for 4 stars is the company's lack of phone or live chat support with technical services. This is the only company whom I researched that does not offer this as part of their higher-end offering.
As specified ad nauseum, I do not love a support ticket-only style of customer service. I prefer speaking to an educated and experienced tech support representative whenever possible; alternatively, live chat with such a representative is the second best solution. This is for speed and efficiency. Ticket-based solutions are just too slow and tend to draw out the process.
That said, the team was exemplary.
Frankly, Dylan's straight-forward and honest approach. He obviously knows the business and is not a pure-sales person, nor an uneducated customer service representative who bores you with scripted responses.
Second, the business appears to be well-run and technically savvy - something I cannot say about all shared hosting providers.
I believe this was a smart choice for my business and hope to have a long-term relationship with Hostwinds.
I did my end and asked for help when I had a problem.
They Give suggestions and follow them, They are patient and easy to talk with.
10/10 Highly recommended for new customers like me.
They are easy to talk with.
You have good front-end people, give them a raise or a reward every month.
They Deserve it.
People recommend you on their blogs.
You have a good name.
You have good chat support and technicians.
I will continue to use this, Thank you God bless.
Fast and great support! Thank you :) I suggest hostwinds. Why?
1) Fast
2) Good Support (they helped me a few times)
3) Pricing cheaper than some other company I tried

Hostwinds has been my internet web hosting provider for several years...i especially appreciate their prompt and helpful service assistance if i get into a little technical difficulty...the cost price is competitive i think...they have a wide range of self-help website add-ons and helper programs in addition to the usual wordpress options...i am using 3 of the 4 domains that i have available at my level of service and it costs around $11 per month
they have top notch prompt polite customer service for technical issues......they won't build your website for you but they will solve every other tech issue related to the usual technical bumps and bruises that novice users have when adapting to a web host paid service.
I chose hostwinds initially several years ago because at that time they were offering a full 3 years of webhosting for a one time introductory price of something like $40 for one domain...i was a novice and this was a good way to start...prices went up to over $10 a month later which was a big jump for an elderly retired person but i stayed with hostwinds...if i change webhosts in the future it will be because hostwinds raises prices to where they aren't competitive for my needs...i'm a retiree who does a website for pleasure and i conduct no business on the sites, just low level impromptu blogging occasionally, mostly pictures of my dogs...so i make minimal demands on the system and i hope to pay minimally for same.
I have had quite a lot of bad experience with hosting companies in the past. Cheap prices, low prices, it didn't matter to the quality of the service I got. I started working with Hostwinds mostly because of the price tag, and I was so positively surprised when I found out that I am getting premium service, non-stop availability, and the low prices as well.

We appreciate you, and we are always here for you, so please feel welcome to reach out to us anytime if you have questions. Have a fantastic day!
I made a couple mistakes during the setup process of my Wordpress site. Hostwinds support assisted me with every request I had that day. I had probably 5 or 6 requests before I was finished and all setup on my blog.
I googled "Unlimited Storage Wordpress Hosting" and found this hosting plan on a website with a list of the best hosts.

It was very easy to purchase hosting at a great introductory rate, and the yearly renewal rate is still extremely competitive. I was previously with another host for the past two years and so already had my domain and website built. Hostwing's technical staff was extremely fast in getting my site migrated and making sure I stayed online the whole time! I expect this time next year I'll be happy to renew!
Reviews of excellent reliability and speed, good suite of options, great pricing.
Great pricing, good number of domains available at the middle rate.
Thank you so much for this thoughtful and thorough review! We are elated to know that you are having a great hosting experience! Please let us know if you need any help at all moving forward. Have a good one!

Super service and knowledgeable staff. I am always helped right away with accuracy.
Awesome service and great support! And I don't have to go through 8 phone menus, 3 waiver signatures and a blood test to get help that is helpful... you guys are great really appreciate it!
Our original host shut down on September 30. We transferred our site to Hostwinds based upon another customer's recommendation. The transfer process was relatively easy.
Amazing service and cheap service
I like it and i will be long term client
To start with, Hostwinds have a smart and easy to navigate website of their own. I have read many customer hosting reviews about various web hosting providers before I chose this reliable web hosting service. It has lots of positive reviews written by satisfied customers. So, I decided to give them a try as the price was very cheap and they offered FREE website transfer. Good web host.
