"A2 Has provided Excellent service, support, and pricing."
What do you like best about A2 Hosting?

They support Drupal so well. They have drush already set up on the server, which is not always the case with hosting providers. They also warn about out-of-date Drupal code and can even help with patching updates.

What do you dislike about A2 Hosting?

The only thing that I could suggest to improve would be to include free privacy on domains. However, I think in 5 years with a dozen domains I've maybe gotten one email about them. It's not a big concern, but some people want their domain name elsewhere just for free privacy, and then point to the files here on A2. I think it's easier to manage everything in one place.

What problems is A2 Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?

Compared to other Hosting providers, I can host more websites. I've looked at the fine print in how many subdomains and websites you can REALLY add based on their database table limits or other things, and A2 lets me host the most. I get the most out of my account, and I haven't hit the limit yet and don't expect to any time soon.

"The Best CPanel Webhosting with the best Support on the Market"
What do you like best about A2 Hosting?

A2hosting is the only company I know that I can call them to a +1800 number and get a complete support that a technical takes my call (at any time) and solves my problem. They have helped me on a Sunday to set up an SSL certificate that had a problem with a schedule go-live the next monday. A2hosting is a hosting company that you can count with and will never let you down. I always recommend them for people who want a complete hosting solution, they rock!

What do you dislike about A2 Hosting?

That I didn't know about them in the past. I had to go through different 5 cpanel providers and they all suck (slow, terrible support, limitations).

What problems is A2 Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?

Email, hosting and DNS. I realized that I can host stuff for my customers reliably because I know that if I have problems with any details, they help me (either via ticket or via phone if it's urgent) and THEY SOLVE. PERIOD.

"Quick to setup and great support"
What do you like best about A2 Hosting?

I moved my application to a VPS service hosted by A2 as my previous supplier was stopping the service they provided. The whole setup process was very slick, with them sending me lots of information about how to get started, and what the current status was. I had one issue that I raised with support, and they came back to me and fixed it very quickly, which has given me reassurance for any future issues that may arise

What do you dislike about A2 Hosting?

Nothing so far. They responded quickly to the one issue I had so I am very satisfied.

What problems is A2 Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am running a system that enables a builder to plan their workforce project allocation. The workforce can all see where they are supposed to be via a mobile app, enter timesheets and book holidays. Management can use it to plan what they are doing months in advance allowing them to see when they will need to bring on more people, to track where people are now, see which projects are costing them the most, and even create invoices to send out to the customers.

"Capable, dependable, secure, worry-free, good DIY features"
What do you like best about A2 Hosting?

A2 Hosting has hosted our small website for a few years. All we wanted was to have the site and to put up the content we wanted. Simple enough. A2 Hosting has delivered a trouble-free and worry-free hosting and a site that does what we want.

What do you dislike about A2 Hosting?

Nothing. (There is nothing about A2 Hosting's services or features that we dislike, other than the fact that we still have to figure out what to do with the website. Unfortunately, this review software insists that I waste at least 40 characters to say "nothing.")

What problems is A2 Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a website that does what we want it to and can do much more when we want it to.

"Easy to use and Great Customer Service"
What do you like best about A2 Hosting?

After learning Wordpress to build our website, I came across some issues I did not know where to turn to fix. I am used to a simple drag and drop builder, and was clueless. I have some basic knowledge, but my issue was technical. A2 was quick to respond to my issues and explain in a way I could understand and was able to fix. Very grateful for that.

What do you dislike about A2 Hosting?

My previous host, had a built in drag and drop system available. It was easy to figure out and create our website. I had to learn a new app/program, but am glad I did. It has lots more options and the ability to get creative. This really isn't a problem now, but was a real headache at first.

What problems is A2 Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hosting a website for our business. I did not want to pay someone to do it. I have some web building experience, and lots of computer knowledge. I was able to build my website and A2 was able to help when my knowledge failed me. We now have a professional looking website, with the only cost other than hosting is my time.
