I have used many hosting services including aws, godaddy, BlueHost, hostgator, Contabo, OVS, etc for different clients in my entire professional career but chemcloud is very opportunist.
also, their technical staff is so much incompetent that often they refuse to install some packages or install them in a way that is not useful and generates issues.
Personally, I would not recommend it to any of my clients.

ChemiCloud,
Thanks for your time writing this review. We understand that having your website suspended can be frustrating. I've checked your account, and it looks like you had a VPS with us, which expired on January 18, 2022.

As a gesture...Read More of goodwill and understanding, we offered you a one-time grace period of 10 days (until January 28, 2022) without payment.

However, those 10 days have passed, and your service got suspended for non-payment. After the suspension, you again contacted us and asked for your service to be activated, but we informed you that that is not possible without payment.

We tried our best - we changed your service billing cycle and issued you an invoice for the best price possible - however, we didn't hear back from you.

I'm sorry you feel this way; based on your tickets history, it looks you've been quite happy with our services and offered multiple positive feedback along the way.

Once again, we're 24/7 open to resolving your case; if you are open to cooperating - just let us know!

As a hosting review expert/website owner, I always have fun reviewing the smaller providers as they have a strong focus on customer support and giving you the most value for your money – Chemicloud is one such host, so I just had to. In the rest of this piece, I’ll share my thoughts on the host’s pricing, support, overall features, performance and ease of use… important metrics that’d help you decide if it’s the hosting provider for you.

 

Chemicloud Review

Chemicloud is a very young host – founded just in 2016, and has experienced healthy growth in its 6-year life. Chemicloud provides shared, VPS, reseller and cloud VPS hosting as its core plans… and then offers WordPress-optimized for… you guessed it… WordPress sites.

The company now hosts about 80,000 websites, is powered by 11 data centers, and is also independently owned. On all their plans you get a free domain and SSL certificate, SSD storage, free website migration, and unmetered bandwidth (for their shared plans).

Chemicloud does not have a BBB rating (reserved for U.S companies), however, from over 434 reviews, the hosting provider is rated 4.9/5.0 on Trustpilot.

 

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Incredible support
  • Independently owned provider
  • Very intuitive dashboard and UI
  • Strong customer focus
  • Free migration and goodies
  • Free website builder
  • Easier choice from to-the-point plans

Cons

  • Smaller storage
  • Plans are a little pricey

Pros and ConsChemicloud is a fast-growing hosting provider with solutions optimized for small to mid-sized enterprises and businesses. Looking for hosting that’s like being cuddled in the cloud? Sign up with Chemicloud today!

Rating Breakdown

To rate the different hosting providers we review, effectively and fairly, it’s important to have a ‘control’ or reference point that considers the different important rating factors and then assigns a score based on how each hosting provider performs in the said parameter.

That’s exactly what our experts at HostAdvice have developed – a standardized hosting provider rating methodology that makes it easy to score and rate hosting providers.

Parameter Score Why we gave this score
PRICES 9.0 Chemicloud’s cheapest plan (shared) starts at $2.99/month only if you pay for a 3-year commitment. It’s fair but there are cheaper options. However, I’d give them a 9.0 because you can pay monthly, annually, biennially and triennially.
FEATURES 8.5 Varied hosting packages, CloudFlare CDN free, SSD servers, free domain and SSL, 1-click install for WordPress/popular apps, and a modern control panel make Chemicloud feature-rich. However, I’d give them an 8.5 because they don’t offer dedicated hosting.
PERFORMANCE  9.5 Incredible 156 ms response time, 99.9% uptime, SSD servers and storage, and great load times make the host among the high performers. I’d give them a 9.5 because they’re faster than the average host.
USER FRIENDLINESS 8.5 Modern cPanel, intuitive UI, and 1-click installs make the host very user friendly. However, I’d give them an 8.5 because the cPanel may still look intimidating to hosting newbies.
SUPPORT 8.5 Live chat, ticketing, vast knowledgebase, and video tutorials. I’d give them a 9.0 because most hosts don’t offer video tutorials… and while that’s great, they don’t offer phone support.

 

Chemicloud Prices & Plans – 2023

Chemicloud offers shared, VPS, reseller and cloud hosting plans – as well as its suite of popular app plans (WordPress, Joomla, WooCommerce). They also offer complementary email hosting so you can connect your domains to a mailbox.

On most of their plans, Chemicloud has a great 45-day money back guarantee – giving you enough time to decide whether their services are right for you.

And once you’ve decided to commit to Chemicloud, you can pay either with credit card or Paypal.

Shared Hosting

Plan name Space Bandwidth Panel Number of sites Price (per month)
Starter 20 GB Unlimited Modern cPanel 1 $2.99
Pro 30 GB Unlimited Modern cPanel Unlimited $4.99
Turbo 40 GB Unlimited Modern cPanel Unlimited $5.99

I’d particularly recommend their Pro plan if you’re new to hosting – you get 30 GB NVMe storage, can host unlimited websites, and also unmetered bandwidth – at $.4.99/month… billed for 3 years.

Tip: Chemicloud’s shared hosting plans are best suited to new websites or websites for small businesses that don’t have a lot of data. I.e won’t exceed 40 GB. They are also the host’s most affordable plans.

VPS Hosting

Plan name Space Bandwidth Panel Number of sites Price (per month)
Cloud 1 80 GB 4 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $45.79
Cloud 2 160 GB 5 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $73.29
Cloud 3 320 GB 6 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $128.29
Cloud 4 640 GB 7 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $238.29

Chemicloud offers its VPS plans over monthly and yearly commitments only. With their Cloud 2 (which I recommend), you get 160 GB storage, 5 TB bandwidth, and unlimited websites to host. You also get 4 CPU cores but this time, a 15-day money back guarantee.

Tip: Chemicloud’s VPS hosting plans are its high-end plans designed for businesses that handle a lot of traffic or get traffic spikes and need resources that are easily scalable.

Reseller Hosting

Storage optimized

Plan name Space Bandwidth Panel Number of sites Price (per month)
Cloud 1 60 GB 3 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $8.99
Cloud 2 90 GB 6 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $11.99
Cloud 3 140 GB 9 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $16.49
Cloud 4 200 GB 12 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $20.99

I recommend the host’s Cloud 3 plan – 140 GB NVMe storage, unlimited websites, 9 TB bandwidth.

Tip: Chemicloud offers a 45-day money back guarantee for its reseller plans and is best for newbie hosting companies who don’t have their own data centers yet. Its storage optimized reseller plans give you the most storage at the expense of cPanel accounts. You can also choose to pay monthly, over 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years.

Accounts optimized

Plan name Space Bandwidth Panel Number of sites Price (per month)
Cloud 1 30 GB 3 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $8.99
Cloud 2 60 GB 6 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $11.99
Cloud 3 80 GB 9 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $16.49
Cloud 4 100 GB 12 TB Modern cPanel Unlimited $20.99
Tip: Chemicloud’s account optimized reseller plans give more cPanel accounts for less storage space. You also get a 45-day money back guarantee as well as the same payment structure.

WordPress Hosting

Plan name Space Bandwidth Panel Number of sites Price (per month)
WordPress Starter 20 GB Unlimited Modern cPanel 1 $2.99
WordPress Pro 30 GB Unlimited Modern cPanel Unlimited $4.99
WordPress Turbo 40 GB Unlimited Modern cPanel Unlimited $5.99

Chemicloud’s WordPress plans are basically its shared plans amped up with WordPress-specific features – one-click WordPress staging, 1-click installs, access to over 5000 WordPress themes, etc.

Tip: Chemicloud’s WordPress plans are best suited to businesses and websites powered by WordPress – the most popular content management system in the world.

 

Features

  • Free domain & SSL
  • Free CloudFlare CDN
  • NVMe storage
  • Fast WordPress launch
  • Free domain registration/transfer
  • Free website transfer
  • Free website builder

Chemicloud offers a host of features but some of the ones that stand out are its 45-day money back guarantee and free website migration. Most other hosts offer free domain transfers, but less usually full website transfers for free. Chemicloud also offers you ultra-flexible payment plans for different budgets:

Performance

One very important factor to consider when evaluating whether a host is right for you is its performance. So how do you measure the host’s performance? Some important performance metrics to measure are its speed, uptime, and average fully loaded time.

  • For speed, I usually like to measure the time to first byte (TTFB) – basically how quickly the host’s servers start sending data to a user visiting your website.
  • For the uptime, any host you are considering should have a 99.9% uptime guarantee which has become the industry’s standard.

To measure Chemicloud’s performance, I tested dagrafixdesigns.com – a website hosting on the platform to test its TTFB and overall performance.

These were the results:

On GTMetrix, the website had a remarkable 156 ms and a fully loaded time of 1.3s. The website also had an overall performance of 89%:

Final: Chemicloud review

Do note, however, that the overall performance is not the same as the uptime. Also, the fully loaded time depends a lot on the website design and website structure.

 

Level Of Support

Chemicloud has a healthy support hub giving you solutions to your needs and inquiries 24/7/365 via:

Live Chat

Chemicloud’s live chat is a strong point for their support. You don’t have to struggle to find it. On any page of their website, just click the message icon and you’ll be redirected to the chat page.

Next, just fill in your email address and you should  have an agent join in less than 30 seconds!

I tested their live chat out and the agent was super courteous, knowledgeable, and answered my questions in detail:

Final: Chemicloud review

Ticketing

Chemicloud also allows you request for support by submitting a help ticket:

Final: Chemicloud review

Even though this feature is reserved for its current customers only.

Video Tutorials

Yes! You don’t see them so often. As a visual learner (learn more effectively via video), I especially liked Chemicloud’s video tutorials.

However, their videos are actually not hosted on their website – I guess to improve speed – but rather on their YouTube channel.

Final: Chemicloud review

If you’re a visual learner like me, you’d love them too.

Knowledgebase

And finally, the old-school knowledgebase/help center. Chemicloud features a vast FAQs library with answers to just about any question you may have on setting up your accounts and getting started:

Final: Chemicloud review

The built-in search is especially helpful to help you find whatever topic you’re looking for, quickly!

 

User-Friendliness – Ease of use

Registration

To register and signup on Chemicloud, you’d just need to pay for one of their hosting plans, fill in your details, and it’s done.

From the homepage, simply click ‘View plan and pricing’:

Final: Chemicloud review

Choose any of the plans you want – shared, VPS, WordPress, reseller – and click ‘Get started now’. Next, you’d be asked for your domain info whether you want to register a domain for free or you already have a domain.

Final: Chemicloud review

Type in your domain name and click ‘Use’. You’ll then be redirected to the additional info page where you can choose your server location, enter a promo code, and choose extra addons.

Click ‘Continue’ and proceed to the checkout page where you’d be asked for your personal details and payment method details. Fill in the forms and voila! Your account is ready.

Final: Chemicloud review

Chemicloud Control Panel

I especially like Chemicloud’s client dashboard and cPanel package. Once you’re registered, you get access to Chemicloud’s intuitive dashboard that’s mobile friendly:

Final: Chemicloud review

Allowing you manage your packages and account on the go.

Chemicloud also features a modern cPanel – the most popular backend control panel on the market for all your more technical tweaks and controls.

Installing WordPress on Chemicloud

If your website is powered by WordPress, it’s best to go for Chemicloud’ WordPress plans. You get 1-click installs, free website migration, and 1-click WordPress staging.

To install WordPress in the Chemicloud cPanel, you’ll use the Softaculous app installer in cPanel. Click on the WordPress logo in the installer and then ‘Install Now’.

Final: Chemicloud review

Next, fill in the details – domain, website name, site meta description, set up your admin details – password and email… and click ‘Install’.

You now have WordPress and can login whenever you want.

Add Email Account on Chemicloud

The quickest way to add an email account on Chemicloud is to do it in cPanel. You can login to your cPanel straight from your account dashboard.

Once you’re in, navigate to ‘Email Accounts’ under ‘Email’. Click ‘CREATE+’ and fill in the necessary email info – address, domain it will be tied to, password, mailbox size, and finally, choose ‘Do not automatically create folders’:

Final: Chemicloud review

Click ‘Create’ and it’s done!

 

Conclusion: Do We Recommend Chemicloud?

Chemicloud is a young hosting company that’s making a name for itself and their packages are indeed awesome. First, they have incredible support, a super-intuitive UI designed with beginners in mind, and a great money-back guarantee.

I recommend Chemicloud as an excellent host overall with good value for money. Their servers are also impressively fast, so your website will load just as quick. My only issues with them will be that they don’t offer phone support and they also don’t offer dedicated hosting.

Aside from those though, I really like how straight to the point their packages are making it incredibly easy to decide what’s right for you and get started with them.
