Summary |
---|
A2 Hosting is one of those companies that just performs well in all categories, and they do so very consistently. DigitalOcean is a good hosting company, and most of their customers are very satisfied. The fact remains, however, that A2 Hosting is ranked higher in every measured category, and in many cases, significantly higher. When you opt for A2 Hosting, you’ll have access to skilled support staff, great prices, excellent features, and much more, which is why they are the winner in this matchup.

Finally i decided to try A2Hosting and i'm extremly satisfied with what they provide. The fact that they allow the client to chose the location of the server makes a huge difference. the server response time is faster than i hoped for. Since i started with them i've only opened 2 support ticketw and those were resolve same day. A2Hosting keep up the good work. |

very clearly flawed (or nonexistent? They’re busy trying to take down my reviews rather than fix their problems) insofar as account recovery and their support staff, to my direct experience, is very susceptible to phishing. I will not return to or recommend A2 in the future. Very disappointing staff. This is in addition to receiving poor website hosting help in the past.

So I opened a support ticket thinking there must have been some kind of mistake. In that ticket, instead of unlocking my account they informed me that I had been flagged for "fraudulent activity that violated the Terms of Service". I replied that this was impossible since I'd never been able to access my account in the first place. They ignored me and upheld the ban and "wished me luck picking a provider" - basically a passive aggressive middle finger to me voicing *valid* frustration over being treated like a criminal. Do not use this product. Support clearly does not care and treats you like crap. |
