I’m a highly competent server admin who helped a friend with a website at Hosting24.com. I’ve 8 years of experience managing servers dealing with small and large infrastructures.

The site was down most of the time, and was indeed down for more than 99.9% of the time (Pingdom logging showed a 90% uptime for only a week atm). My team and I debugged the issue because Hosting24 provided SSH and pin pointed the problem for Hosting24, provided the data in the ticket and how to resolve it, a week later they have yet to solve it, the site/server still goes down sporadically. Because the site is constantly up and down, apparently when their support checks the site, it’s up so they don’t do anything else other than to provide a template reply saying: “Do you still get this problem? Because I have just checked your website and it works fine.”. These people who work a hosting24 are idiots! As a professional I’m ashamed people with little competence works for such a company and ruin the trust of the industry’s customers.

Many customers prefer to suffer the awful uptime and slow page-load at a bad host because they are too afraid the transfer process to another host will go bad. If you need to move all your websites and domains to another host, try the free transfer service at Hostgator. If an expert can do it for you for free, do you still have an excuse to stay with a terrible service?

Many unsatisfied customers stay with a bad host because they are afraid the transfer process will go bad. If an expert can do it for you for free, do you still have an excuse to take the beatings from an awfully terrible service?

Unfortunately, they up time is quite low, when i complained about it i got a free month (actually moth – “We will also add you a moth for free hosting for this issue.”) but i never actually saw the “free” they just charged on and on.
Their chat response is pretty bad (i’m at 16 min right now on their chat and i haven’t got a straight answer).
So no, i DON’T recommend it. If someone can suggest i way to move all my site & domain i would move it in a heart beat.

I am having a free web site on their server for over a year,
actually works as mirror site.

Even if I do not have complains about the service, today that I am looking for payed service, this faceless style of cooperation,
it does discourage me about making a 36 months plan with them.

36 months plan ?
with out a name or a face or a telephone number ?

I am a positive man, I could even overlook the high ping time response, that extends the upload time Europe-USA.
But no, I think that I will have to trust an european server as web-host.

Unlimited space… but you’re only allowed to upload videos under 10 mb.

Nice way to limit the space-usage.

This is actually true, I have posted NUMEROUS tickets to Hosting24, and no reply? Not to mention the TERRIBLE hosting, tried to install a 10Mb SQL query, and it crashed the database. I have a max of about 120 different networks trafficking through my site daily, and it would crash at least three times a day. THREE, you’re probably thinking, that’s nothing. But when you rely on this service as to gain funds for say a small business or community, contributors cannot even load the damn site, and after numerous tries the site would crash without warning.

their speed is awfull, frequent disconnects, service is ok but all in all the site is offline too much the speeds are to slow and you can’t send emails, or it least they have a miximum of 10 per minute, instead of the usual 500 / hour. basically this means if u get 11 subscribers in one minute your entire site will go down, i wish i never did hosting with them, now i need to move everything to a new host :C

Don’t use Hosting 24. Bad service, bad hosting, slow speed, frequent disconnects, just all around bad experience.
