WebHostingHub always addresses the issues directly and efficiently. The first response of the customer support is usually in seconds, and almost issues can be resolved in minutes.

WebHostingHub Reliability Editorial Review Editorial Reliability Rating: 4.94.9 of 5

WebHostingHub provides great speed and reliability due to their network structure and the way they manage the servers. The network was specifically built to be expandable for capacity and for throughput. The Gigabit server farm is connected to the Internet through 3 separate providers with an on demand capacity exceeding 7,500 MBits. They utilize BGP4 Smart Routing and can switch instantly and transparently away from any of the network providers that are experiencing latency or downtime. They also utilize 2 additional Tier I Provider as a fail-safe measure in the event of a provider outage. This helps ensure that the hosting websites are accessible regardless of network issues.

Besides, WebHostingHub utilizes Mozy for all the shared web hosting plans. Mozy is an online backup service for both Windows and Mac users. The cloud service allows users to back up data continuously, manually or schedule updates. Mozy is known for offering backup storage space for home and business users. Although we don't have enough time on monitoring the service/network uptime of WebHostingHub so far, with 90 days full money back guarantee, I think you don't worry about their reliability.

WebHostingHub ControlPanel Editorial Review Editorial ControlPanel Rating: 5.05.0 of 5

WebHostingHub uses cPanel as the control panel, which is well-known for Linux web hosting by its high reliability, rich features and great usability. Based on our own experience, the control panel is quite easy to get started, all functionalities are categorized well, and it also provides getting-started-wizard video and Wiki instruction for beginners. You can manage everything of your website, including domain name, email services, websites, files, logs, databases, software, advanced Apache setting and security in the control panel.

The control panel integrates with Fantastico, which offers more than 50 free web applications meeting requirements for blog, album, forum, e-commerce, etc. Most the famous software is included. Take examples, WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, Gallery2, phpBB, Zen Cart, Magento and more.

WebHostingHub Support Editorial Review Editorial Support Rating: 5.05.0 of 5

WebHostingHub offers 365/24/7 toll-free U.S. in-house technical support and live chat. Based on our testing, it's really easy to contact their customer support staff through both telephone and live chat, even at midnight of Saturday. The customer support always responds tickets quickly and addresses the issues directly. This is quite important for shared web hosting especially sometimes you need help from them on debugging the hosting websites. In conclusion, WebHostingHub customer support can be described as "fast response", "experienced" and "skilled" - they're doing absolutely terrific, more valuable than you paid!

If you suspect what we reviewed, you can easily check out the truth by visiting their website, and clicking "Live Chat" to talk with their sales or technical support department. The first response is usually in seconds, and the conversation is quite smooth. You don't need to wait for several minutes for a reply, as some small web hosting companies.

    I found webhostinghub after days of searching for an alternative to hostgator. I was pleasantly surprised by their sale representative, the 3.95/mo offer was only available in their 3 years plan, we found together a solution that benefit both parties involved, keep in my I talked over past week with over 15 sale representatives and nearly none of them was so dedicated in getting me as their customer.

    Of course moving from a decent hosting company such as hostgator, I has my fair share of questions in my quest in taking every precaution in making the transition flawless. Their demo Cpanel is another thing worth mentioning, it is better than 10 FAQ's, because it allows you to view the options and see for yourself if there are some CPU/Memory/scripts restrictions.

    Transfer of files/databases went flawless (I did it myself, I don't trust anyone with the SQL and server configuration) now for some results in terms of performance:

    Same site, same scripts, same setup:

    HOSTGATOR: - Baby Croc package:
    Home page loading: Render time: 1.7837 sec, 0.0875 of that for queries. DB queries: 150. Memory Usage: 5,660kB

    WEBHOSTINGHUB:
    Home page loading: Render time: 0.2686 sec, 0.0489 of that for queries. DB queries: 150. Memory Usage: 5,660kB

    Now as I said I just transferred I don't know how good their uptime is nor how they will react when I go to them with an issue, so far I feel that I am getting what I payed for.

    I am a website newbie, Every time I have encountered a problem or have a question, my email questions, or live phone call conversations are always helpful. Emails are answered promptly and I have never waited more than a couple of minutes on hold waiting for help. I have required help in areas like domain purchasing, allowing include files and email setup. All were answered by knowledgeable staff.

    Pretty easy to get everything up to where I needed it to be. This was my first excursion into web hosting and it went off without a hitch. I have not had any down time, or any issues with the install tool base. I'm still learning the ins and outs, but at this point (about two weeks into this endeavor), I cannot think of any reason why I would not go with WebHostingHub again. I would also not hesitate to tell anyone that I use WebHostingHub. Keep it affordable and working is a great model to use.
