“Help is available 24/7”

9/1/24

Help is available 24/7. The site design is 9 out of 10. I have been with another web designer, and Web.com is more user friendly. I would like to see availability for my email on the left side menu when I first sign in.

Your customer service is sub par. Your chat system dings every time I visit the site. I wait too long for service. There are far too many technical issues. You changed your entire platform with zero notice to your customers.

I have been a Doster customer for 20 years and the Web.com interface is horrible. Also, you now charge for domain forwarding which was always free.
It remains free with Go Daddy, and I'm taking my business there.

Reason I chose this business:

I remove domains.

Web.com keeps asking me to update WHOIS information. When I try to do so on your site, it asks me for my password. When I enter the very same password I use to access Web.com, it rejects it. Maddening!

Your processes are broken as admitted to by your team. Yet, you are unwilling to correct them or let me speak with someone with the authority to correct your errors. I am left with verifying (again) my identity so I can (again) fix your broken work flow. The broken flow? Registering a new domain, using my log in and correct credentials, results in you assigning the wrong credentials to the domain.

Reason I chose this business:

I did not choose. Forced due to the dotster acquisition

The reason I am disappointed is because the prices increased and the service package size and options decreased. How is that fair. You've charged me 3 times what I am used to paying and all of the thing I used to have available in my active accounts I'm now being charged for them or they are removed. These are sties that are years old not new. They shouldn't be managed this way. You can lose loyal customers who would spend more doing this greedy disservice. It's criminal business practice. Just because it is common practice doesn't make it right

Reason I chose this business:

To pay my domain fee

The web interface for advanced users has improved but the price has gone up to a point that it may no longer be competitive.

I'm a migrating mydomain.com user, and I think your prices are higher, your administration experience is worse, and it's really not a great experience to create and manage domains. There's too many steps/pop-ups and default upsell attempts that makes registering domains a royal PITA. And your DNS management system is 1000x worse than the one on mydomain.com.

I don't do it often, but I do it enough. And it's bad enough that I'm considering transferring all my domains somewhere else.

Reason I chose this business:

I didn't have a choice. You bought my old registrar.

Site offers good value for the money, nice features, ease of use. But they took weeks to get my domain name up and running and getting support is poor. I took about six times asking for help through chat to get domain up and running. If they say wait time is 10 minutes, it's more like 30, if it's 5 minutes, it's more like 20. A couple of times I couldn't wait that long and had to leave.

Your chat support is quite disappointing. Huge delays in responses. This is the second time I am trying to get my questions answered. Dotster was so much better with their support.
