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 operate a very low volume website on wordpress and with a near $20/m plan it wasn't even capable of using the wordpress control panel. Overloaded shared servers or terrible allocation. I've foolishly used them for nearly 4 years and am extremely glad to have switched. Cheaper and infinitely faster. Never use Hostwinds.
Great customer service! Fast and always helpful. Any questions get answered promptly and thoroughly.
The chat Guy really helped me, but The billing departament works only 9 hours a day which made me wait like 10 hours until my domain was live

Good so far. Reliable. VPS server rebuild quickly. Great selection of VPS operating systems. Great experience so far.
I have been a customer for years, and run several domains from hostwinds. Support is top-notch, and I have had a great experience with all my sites.
Multiple domains and websites hosted by GoDaddy for 20+ years with no problems and outstanding support. In August 2021 GoDaddy decided to move their email platform to Microsoft 365, resulting in extra monthly charges AND lacking support for "catch-all" email, which I use extensively.
Hostwinds supports "catch-all" email, and had pretty good reviews, so I migrated here.
Hostwinds tech support have been readily available and responsive, however not very helpful sometimes. For example, after transferring my domain to Hostwinds, tech support suggested that I contact GoDaddy to get them to change the DNS records at GoDaddy to point to my web site and mail server at Hostwinds, instead of informing me that I could reassign the nameservers to Hostwinds. Better yet, it seems they could have been a little more "proactive" and asked if I wanted them to reassign the nameservers for me. After a couple of hours rummaging through the Hostwinds Control Panel I "accidentally stumbled on" the page showing that my nameservers were still controlled by GoDaddy (domaincontrol.com), at which time I was able to make the reassignment myself. Simple as clicking a radio-button, but I'm unimpressed that Hostwinds tech support suggested I get GoDaddy to CHANGE THEIR DNS RECORDS for the domain I just TRANSFERRED to Hostwinds.
Haven't been here long, so maybe it's unfair to judge so soon...
Primarily because they support "catch-all" email.
The first impression is good. I don't have much to say for now since I am a new client.
I hope to get a good service with your support department.
The features you offer and price.
For now i give 5 stars, everything is working and the support is really great, they are fast and right to the point with the solutions.

Was looking for hosting and WHMCS and found you guys with a great price
I have always received excellent tech support the few times I needed to call. By far this is the best hosting service I have used.
The chat that I had with Paul from support told me everything that I needed to know. Thus far I am pleased with my experience.
I have been a long time customer, and the service has been great. The support is responsive and things progress quickly.
I searched for web hosting recommendations and found Hostwinds.
I wanted to find a good hosting solution with affordable price for my personal website.

I recommend to go with hostwinds VPS provider. I am fully satisfied with the service provided by Hostwinds.
Had a nice clean and easy online checkout. The services and rates where easy to find, easy to select a plan, and a simple quick checkout process.
I’ve used Hostwinds in the past years ago for a previous website and had good experiences with them. So when I decided to launch a new company Hostwinds was where I went.
Hostwinds Servers are working well without any issue.
But regarding network traffic, a bit expensive for me.
I searched servers a lot.
But many of them isn't suitable for me.
Hostwinds is expensive for me but it is working well.
I am happy to remain a customer of this host! I've enjoyed exceptional tech support and have maintained reliability accordingly!
I'm an old time client, went back to hostwinds because you guys are solid af ;)

My overall experience is good. I found hostwinds one of the top ranking web hosting services for windows vps.
I found Hosteinds in one of the best vps windows hosting service providers
Incredible host. Really economical and great for blog sites; my ftp us running smoothly, and uploads for SEO was simple and is easy to manage.
They have relatively permissive terms of service, but don't allow you to prepay for hosting services. Bummer
Because of Hostwinds' permissive terms of service and because I didn't find any far-left political blog posts.

Thanks always, for your support system team
