Interland Feature Plus Web Hosting

Pros: Good uptime, Good service, Good package, Good price
Cons: Questionable caching policy

It's funny. I wrote a long rant about how bad CIHost was and what a miserable experience it was dealing with the trained monkeys they consider staff there (charitably assuming they were trained.) My review was consistent with every other review...

Pros: Absolutely NONE - Steer clear
Cons: They put the "i" in "DISASTROUS"

I haven't written a review in about three months. What could possibly have motivated the muse in me once more? Well, so glad you asked. I had the great personal misfortune to use Interland for a hosting service, and I'd like to warn as many people...

Pros: None
Cons: Slow connections, no script support, abusive customer service

I run a small Internet eCommerce site with several friends. We provide news and information about a college sport and sell sports gear through the site. We spent a lot of time investigating ISP's, looking for a balance between price and features. We...

Pros: They will give you good horror stories to tell your friends.
Cons: You'll lose customers, time, and patience.

UPDATE: 2001 June 06

Interland has changed a lot in the last few months, but I am still shopping for another web host. Why?

First, although I have paid for service until the end of the month, I am getting threatening e-mails from...

Pros: none
Cons: high pressure sales force

Interland appears to becoming a leading Internet web hosting company. I see their advertisements in Wired magazine monthly, and have received a few direct mailings from the company. I am not writing to analyze their hosting services, but instead comment...

Pros: None
Cons: Poor customer service, poor technical support

Interland were quite good when I first started using them in April 99 but since then they have just gone download fast. I upgraded my plan to include Cold Fusion hosting but they forgot to give me the new username and password for the FTP site and I had...

Pros: Inexpensive in the beginning
Cons: Customer support department is difficult to reach with incredibly long hold times.

I started my own CPA practice and was looking to save on start up expenses. I researched Web.com for web hosting and e-mail and they seems quite reasonable. In June 2005 I prepaid for three years of service - BIG MISTAKE. In the beginning, technical ...

Pros: Website has okay response time
Cons: Customer service and billing

Interland must be the worst Web hosting company in the world. I am usually a pretty positive, optimistic person, but these guys have driven me to the dark side.

The Website we have hosted on Interland has performed okay...when it is up. We...

Pros: good tech support. Nice features for the price
Cons: Terrible back office support

Interland USED to be a great host. I had over 15 domains with them. I have moved all but 3 to another host. Why?

(1) Bait-and-switch sales. I completed a "configure your own server" series of applications and even received an...

Pros: Absolutely none
Cons: Site crashes often, extremely poor customer service, customer is always wrong

Basically, at one time I had three accounts with them. Two accounts I cancelled, one I simply let expire. All three accounts experienced failures AT LEAST one, two or three times a month basis, meaning I had to reload the entire sites when they failed....

Pros: None
Cons: All

After nearly three years of hosting two sites with HostPro/WIPC within which I had absolutely no problems whatsoever, the takeover of HostPro by interland (small i intentional) has, in less than six months, cost both companies with sites now hijacked by...

Pros: attractive prices
Cons: prone to hardware failure and not doing their job

In the year of service with Interland, we have had 3 RAID failures which have destroyed the server and our uptime. Avoid them at all costs, definitely read below for our nightmare: 1st RAID Failure: within the first week of getting server, we were ...

Pros: Great support and pricing
Cons: None

Last summer I reserved a domain name through another provider. Their automated link worked perfectly. I now tried to "sign up". We went through weeks of "someone will call you back tomorrow". My next stop was Interland.

A...

Pros: I am really angered by the situation, I can't think of any
Cons: Bad configuration of servers, even worse customer service, try to sell me into more

I will not go into gory details about my company's constant problems with Interland's service but instead give you a rough understanding of our situation. If you wish to know more, feel free to contact me at davidg@v7s.com.

Basically, we...

Pros: none
Cons: Incompetent tech support

I have never been compelled to bash a company until dealing with Interland. My company switched from Mindspring to Interland 30 days ago. In the 3 years Mindspring hosted my web site, I had to call their tech support MAYBE three times. In the 30 days the...
