Fast, secure, reliable, featurerich and awesome support
Our site is a big photography review and submission site with lots of user interaction and big files. At our old host, we had lots of downtimes due t...
o attacks and many user complained about not being able to upload files or even submit payment. A friend of mine recommened Raidboxes and this was a really good decision. First of all, many things that we had to have developers doing before we can now do ourselves it saves us a lot of time and therefore money. The attacks on our site did not stop, but Raidboxes have a lot of measures in place to determine of traffic is valid or spam or attacks, so our overall load is down by 85%. (Raidboxes also got a live cpu/ram load page for monitoring (in the screenshots)). And they are fast, really fast. Our speed was good before, but now we might get speeding tickets. I personally only had two or three conversations with their support, but those were great. They don't have a ticket system, they have live-chat support which i perfer personally and they replied in seconds. Also you're talking to a human being, not a bot. Although they seem pricey for a host, it's the features and their good security that make up for it. Because our server load has drastically gone down because of their checks for valid traffic we are now on a way lower plan than with our old host and save hundreds of euros. And our developers don't have to take care about many server features, because we can do them ourselves in the Raidboxes dashboard.

Very good experience. No downtime in last 3 months.
I signed up with A Small Orange despite seeing many bitter reviews on the internet. I've been using ASO shared (small) plan for 3 months. Never experi...
enced any issue with their service. I've monitored my website uptime with Jetpack plugin of wordpress and tested speed, server response time regularly. Never experienced any downtime in last 3 months. Pingdom shows my website is faster than the 98% website. Actually, so far I'm very happy with their service. It is true that their support ticket is very slow and they took almost two weeks to reply my ticket about registering a new domain. But I never had to wait more than 3 minutes to get live chat support. My ticket was solved instantly via live chat. Another good thing about ASO is their server name and user area interface is very unique and user friendly. Hope ASO will remain consistent with their good service. Best wishes for ASO team!

SCAM ALERT
They will STEAL YOUR MONEY overcharging your card with increased renewal fees NO MATTER IF YOU CANCELED OR TRANSFERED AWAY! If you complain they wo...
n't give the money back - they only refund as credit to reuse their crap service longer. There are so many reviews about the same scam. AKA. RUN AWAY! Do not trust anything they say. If you have ever registered with them, contact your bank or Paypal to remove ANY LINK before they STEAL your money! I never got my money back even they promise refund on customer support and later change their mind. Don't trust them.
