"Excellent Tech Services at LunarPages, Still the BEST"
What do you like best about HostPapa?

The VPS tech, RV, exceeded my expectations--he was extremely knowledgeable and helped me identify my issues. He answered all of my questions and taught me how to implement the changes myself if I wanted to. He was creative in his approach to understanding the disk problem and easily fixed it. As usual with LunarPages Customer Support, you can expect to speak to an expert US-based tech who will spend as much time as needed help you and fixing any issues.

What do you dislike about HostPapa?

Not a thing to dislike about LunarPages. I'm still extremely pleased with them. My VPS has virtually a 100% uptime every single month. They stay on top of my server and issue me notices when needed. The tech line is always available. Very very happy.

What problems is HostPapa solving and how is that benefiting you?

They notified me that my diskspace was running low, and so the LunarPages tech helped me identify files on the server that could be cleaned up to improve diskspace. Had this been an issue with another company, I'm not confident I would have received such good customer service. LunarPages is still the best hosting company out there. Their tech service is beyond any other you can find. You are in safe hands with them.

"great reliability, long-term business stability"
What do you like best about HostPapa?

I don't need anything fancy, but we've had no reliability nor uptime problems in 15 years of hosting with Lunarpages, and they have proven to be a stable company that you can count on to be around for the long haul - not a poorly-run business that might disappear after a few years.

What do you dislike about HostPapa?

nothing that we've found so far - toolset is robust, communications are appropriate and not too frequent, etc. Overall just what we need.

What problems is HostPapa solving and how is that benefiting you?

again, nothing complex for us. LP provides a stable solution that allows us to communicate to event participants and present a reliable front end for the business.

"Lunarpages meets all of my needs"
What do you like best about HostPapa?

Flexible, reasonably priced, helpful tools, strong tech support. I have been with Lunarpages for 15+ years and could not be convinced to change to another hosting service.

What do you dislike about HostPapa?

I can think of absolutely nothing to criticize.

What problems is HostPapa solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lunarpages hosts my several music and author-related endeavors. With their tools, I have no need to use any other website-related services. I can build and manage my various websites myself.

"Quality of experience went from good to great in past 9 months"
What do you like best about HostPapa?

I've been a long-time customer because of the price. However, their customer & technical service has improved considerably (reduced hold times, motivated and efficient personnel over the past 9 months.

What do you dislike about HostPapa?

My dislikes appear to have been addressed. They were: long hold times for support and getting blacklisted because of some bad actors sharing the IP address of the shared hosting email servers. (not blacklisted in over 9 months now).

What problems is HostPapa solving and how is that benefiting you?

They host our email, FTP, and previously our website.

"Customer Service is Top Notch!"
What do you like best about HostPapa?

Customer Service Representatives are really knowledgeable and helpful

What do you dislike about HostPapa?

The lunarpages account page is a bit cluttered. Hard to navigate at times.

What problems is HostPapa solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have used lunarpages for all types of services. But we recently created an entirely new website using the weebly service provided. After attempted numerous times to figure it out myself, I finally called lunarpages customer service and they easily walked me through step by step. Now that I have the knowledge, I can easily access everything I need!
