"Hosting service, corporate mail and domain, all in one place very easy and safe for your website."
What do you like best about IONOS?

IONOS personally is complete, has everything you need to set up and promote your company or business, on the IONOS website you find all domain plans, corporate email, hosting and much more. I use the IONOS predesigned templates to quickly set up my web page, or the WordPress service for personalized blog with user accounts and email. Domain sale, redirect web pages easily, understandable control panel, payment method by PayPal and TDC, migrate web page from other servers to IONOS, control many domains and email from the same panel, integrated webmail to send and receive Email with many protection functions and much more.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

IONOS works perfectly for my needs, only two problems, there is no support service for Skype or another Internet platform and they do not speak Spanish in the version of IONOS in the United States.

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

Thanks to IONOS I have many domains contracted and all annexed to my TDC, I do not worry about the payments of my services since they are automatically deducted from my PayPal account. My users have access to their emails from the IONOS page, it makes my job much easier.

"Excellent technical support and account features"
What do you like best about IONOS?

1&1 has great customer support to help us through technical issues. When we faced malware with some of our websites, 1&1 was surprising very knowledgeable about possible causes and solutions. Instead of search around online for solutions, we were able to receive direct answers or at least be lead in the right direction by talking to 1&1's support team. About the 1&1's service offerings, they offer generous amounts of bandwidth, server space and account features for relatively low prices. They have first-year domain registrations deals that are far below the price of many of its major competitors. Our hosting account has extensive administrative tools that allow us to effective manage our web files and domain names.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

The second-year and beyond pricing for domain name registration jumps up quite a bit. Even though customer support can be helpful, using 1&1 to host your websites tends to require more technical knowledge compared to pre-built website platforms like Wix and Weebly. Customer support will probably not be able to help you through all malware infections, so you face more of a risk when creating websites in this type of hosting environment.

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

1&1 has been an effective platform for domain registration and management and hosting for our web pages and email accounts. We've been able to post marketing materials and submission forms that allow users to register online or direct visitors to contact us about services. We've been able to minimize our costs by creating many web pages and forms from scratch or with low-cost templates. Our monthly costs have been relatively low and we don't regularly experience performance or security problems.

"An established domain registrar and web host with sharp customer service"
What do you like best about IONOS?

The customer service and support teams at 1&1 really stand out to me. With so much malware and attack attempts on servers and hosting accounts these days, it's nice to work with a company that monitors unusual activity and sends us steps to resolve or prevent certain problems that arise. Also, I like the user interface of the control panel for domains, web hosting and email. It's very straightforward with bold headings and buttons that allow us to smoothly navigate in and out of various account features.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

The pricing isn't the lowest out there. Though 1&1 does offer some super deals for new customers, the standard pricing that kicks in after the first term tends to be much higher. It's not drastically higher than average prices for similar prices, but I noticed that some other companies might throw in extra domain or hosting features for free.

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

1&1 has been mostly solid for hosting web pages and creating redirect links that we use for promotions from social media and email marketing campaigns. We can use 1&1 to create single pages for surveys, advertising and presentations we can quickly pull up or have a lead pull up to view quickly on the fly.

"Internet, web hosting, email and domains for small business"
What do you like best about IONOS?

1&1 Internet is a respected company that offers many reasonably-priced services for small businesses. You can have a combination of "coded" CSS/HTML web sites, WordPress sites and managed WordPress sites, all in one account. And 1&1 offers 500 free email accounts with your domain registration. Even if you have just one website, but several domains registered, you can easily manage the extra domains on the 1&1 control panel, and point unused domains to your main website. Support staff is available by phone, and is helpful when you need assistance. It is easy to forward emails from one account to another. You can forward your 1&1 email to another 1&1 account, or to an external account, for ease of managing your messages.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

The online email reader and editor could stand enhancement. I would like to see the ability to create and manage email rules, including the ability to send alerts and notifications to my smartphone app. I would like to see better integration with Mac Mail, GMail and Outlook mail applications, both Internet-based and smartphone-based (Android and iOS).

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

I use 1&1 for web hosting, domain hosting, email hosting, and WordPress web hosting. I like the managed WordPress hosting for my small business clients that do not have an IT department.

"Great if you can get an offer/deal"
What do you like best about IONOS?

1&1 Website Builder Plus is a good platform to build a website. Easy to set up, Easy to set up emails and good analytics giving you a basic overview. Easy to add images and logo's etc.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

It has a slightly steep learning curve, also if you start a site and then want to apply another design, you have to delete the original site and start again from scratch. I really think they need to find a way to apply templates without losing content you've uploaded.

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

No need for the expense of an external designer, this saved the business money.

An easy and affordable hosting service that makes purchasing domains simple and effective.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

As 1&1 became more popular, their prices went up. Not out of the ordinary but more than expected.

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

Hosing of a small website. We were able to quickly and efficiently setup our host and are able to manage all the features we need to.

"All in one hosting package with excellent value for money"
What do you like best about IONOS?

Fast, reliable hosting with all the required services at a great price.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

The backend is very slow, especially the file manager. It makes a 5-minute task take 20 minutes. There is also quite a learning curve needed to get up to speed on the platfiorm, especially if you're used to cPanel, like many web designers are.

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

You need a reliable website host for your or your clients' websites. IONOS solves that (like all others) but at a very favourable price level compared to other similar hosting providers, leaving more profit for the website owner.

"With ionos 1 & 1 you have everything."
What do you like best about IONOS?

I can install my website easily, I work with the basic plan, and the result I have obtained is perfect for what I am looking for, it has a variety of very good templates, you can choose the one you like the most, it is very easy to use I love it.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

I wouldn't say I like it when the page falls a lot, this has annoyed my clients, and its loading speed is very slow, this affects a lot, they should take these problems into account and solve them to give an excellent service.

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

I am starting with a new project, and I was able to install my website without any problem, it is a good option since it has an accessible price and they have a wide variety of products, it serves me for what I need, problem solved.

"Domain, corporate email, hosting and WordPress, all on one platform."
What do you like best about IONOS?

I like IONOS because of the graphical interface, it's nice and with the user control I control everything I need, my domains, corporate email, hosting, WordPress. IONOS has everything on a single platform at a low cost, I have used other platforms and I stay with IONOS for the ease, stability and security of the system. The redirection of a domain is fast and the hosting has a very high bandwidth, ideal for any web page you need.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

Lack of support in Spanish, I have problems with my hosting service and they tell me to call directly but I don't speak English perfectly.

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

With IONOS I have hired a domain with your website, the hosting is always online without interruptions. With the corporate email I work from the unconfigured IONOS webmail, each user enters their independent email with their access code, the storage of my files in IONOS is perfect.

"The best email, hosting and WordPress service."
What do you like best about IONOS?

IONOS is perfect, it has everything you need to set up a web page; hosting service, domain, email, WordPress. IONOS offers pre-designed page templates, it is perfect for basic projects where you need a page quickly. I pay all my services with PayPal. The interface is nice and has all the options, the email support responds and solves the problems I have.

What do you dislike about IONOS?

Sometimes IONOS does not discount the domain on time and blocks access, my domain is out of service and I have to contact support, they should see the process of their charges so as not to have any problems.

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

I have all my services contracted with IONOS, it is perfect for my emails with the 2GB plan, I receive and sent what I need from the IONOS webmail with anti-spam and virus security.
