When I purchased they had great plans. Now their plans become more and more limited. Now to get the same features as before you have to pay 2x or 3x as much. Recently they modified the "advance pla... See more

It has been great!

As the title says, it has been great so far. I have GoDaddy for my other website and I am already thinking of transferring it to Hostbuddy. It is much cheaper and I don't see anything that I am missing here. The 2 months trial period is also great to see if this works for you and that too without giving any credit card information. Amazing!

Easy and Low Cost Hosting with Excellent Support

Low cost - very good web hosting for general websites/blogs

I've used HostBuddy with one of my websites and referred my clients to use them too. It's easy to access, move about in the Cpanel, database area and view my accounts. I can get support when I need it, as I need it.

Good choice for a budget hosting with quality service.

So far, so good, so matched.

So far, has been excellent! Having a very cheap and Ultra basic plan is awesome, also, very good mid-level plans make it worth every penny.

From a Startup just looking for the must cheaper and nice availability to a mid-size company needing Web Storage, few simple DBs and a good E-mail, they cover all of them.

I've been using the service for almost two years and never reported or had an issue.

PD: It's even using ASP NET Core 1.0! For my newest clients, i can use the latest frameworks and technologies.
