Almost 16 years of great support before it all turned to crap company.
I was a client with Beyond Hosting for 16 years, during which they were bought 3 or 4 years ago by liquid web. Crappy support, website always down. i tried to upgrade and went from 100 usd to 390 something of which they promised they would charge only 160 usd or so for first 3 months. Then they charged a few weeks ago 423 with 80 additional usd double charge they never refunded. I cancelled my account and they said they sent a refund for the 358 usd. its been over 3 weekss i still didnt get any refund. I dont even care about the refunds, im writing this to make sur enobdoy signs up to their business ever. Beyond Hosting was trully great but this liquidweb team is pure crap. dont sign up.

Hello Lamine,
First, we want to sincerely thank you for being a customer for 16 years. That kind of loyalty means a great deal, and we’re truly sorry that your recent experience left you feeling disappointed after so many years of trust. We understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with billing confusion, unexpected charges, and concerns about support after such a long partnership.
We’ve reviewed your account and want to provide clarity while also recognizing where we could have communicated better. A refund in the amount of $358.48 was issued on September 7, 2025. At this point, it should have reached you, and if it hasn’t, the delay may be due to your bank or payment processor. Still, we know that’s little comfort when you’re left waiting, so please contact us if you have further questions.
The billing issues stemmed from a migration process as we helped move your services away from CentOS 7, which is nearing end of life. While the discounted pricing did apply to your new server, your old server remained active and was not cancelled, which led to both being billed. That overlap caused the higher charge you mentioned, and we realize this was confusing and not communicated as clearly as it should have been.
We know that explanations don’t erase the frustration you’ve felt, but please know that your feedback is being taken seriously. We are working to improve how we guide customers through migrations so situations like this are prevented in the future.
It’s disappointing to us that after so many years of good experiences, your final interactions didn’t reflect the level of service you should expect. We truly regret the way this ended and appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective. If you’re open to it, we’d still like to connect directly to ensure the refund is resolved and to answer any remaining questions.
Sincerely,
The Liquid Web Team

Customer for 10+ years now.
I’ve been a Liquid Web customer for over 11 years, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Over the years, I’ve also recommended multiple clients to them, and every single one has had the same positive experience.
What truly sets Liquid Web apart is their support team. They are consistently fast, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in solving issues — not just brushing them off with generic responses. No matter the time of day, I’ve always received reliable, professional, and friendly assistance.
Their infrastructure is rock solid, performance is outstanding, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing your hosting partner has your back is priceless. In an industry where reliable support is rare, Liquid Web continues to raise the bar.
After more than a decade, I can confidently say that Liquid Web isn’t just a hosting provider — they are a true partner. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable hosting backed by world-class support.

We’ll keep working hard to provide that same peace of mind and partnership for many more years to come.

Extremely Disappointed – Unstable, Slow, and Unreliable Hosting
We have been using Liquid Web for several months and our experience has been nothing short of disastrous. Despite paying a high price for a “powerful and stable” server, the service has consistently been:
- Extremely unstable: sometimes the server is reasonably fast, but very often it becomes unbearably slow.
- Unreachable in key regions: there have been several instances where the server was completely inaccessible for days at a time, especially in Asia.
- Repeatedly reported, never solved: despite numerous tickets and alerts, no real or lasting solution has been provided.
This poor service has severely disrupted our work, caused major delays in development, and cost us time and money. We are about to officially launch our marketplace, and the instability of Liquid Web’s servers puts our entire project at risk.
We deeply regret choosing Liquid Web. The performance we’ve received is far from what was promised, and the lack of effective support has only compounded the problem.
Based on our experience, we strongly advise against using Liquid Web — whether you are a business or an individual. The service is not reliable, and we have found it to be a huge waste of time, effort, and money.

Hello Yawo,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear that your hosting has not met expectations and that it has impacted your business. Reliability and performance are top priorities for us, and we understand how disruptive this must have been.
We have carefully reviewed your case, including running additional tests on your server and monitoring performance using third-party tools. Those checks indicate that the server itself is stable and not experiencing underlying infrastructure issues.
Based on this, we shared a set of website-level optimization recommendations designed to help improve speed and reliability for your users, particularly in regions where performance was a concern.
That said, we don’t want you to feel unsupported. Our team remains available to work closely with you on implementing those recommendations and to continue monitoring performance to ensure the best possible outcome. If the challenges persist, please reach out directly to our support team so we can investigate further in real time and escalate as needed.
We truly value your business and regret that your experience has caused frustration. Our goal is to earn back your trust by ensuring your platform is reliable as you move forward with your launch.
Sincerely,
The Liquid Web Team
Unacceptable Mission Critical Website Support
I've been a client of Nexcess for years. They must have recently outsourced their support, as the ticketing system leaves customers helpless. My website has been down almost all day. Our dev team has provided solutions for Nexcess to perform immediately. They have gone 4 hours without a response. No number to call, their live-chat pushes to the ticketing system. If you're an e-commerce business, stay away. You'll be stuck!

Hi Muraco,
Thank you for sharing your experience and for trusting Liquid Web for 18 years. We truly value the long relationship we’ve had with you, and we’re sorry to hear that your recent experience did not meet the high standards we’ve worked hard to maintain.
We understand how important reliable support and communication are, especially when it comes to hosting and email services.
While our support structure has changed, we should have been more proactive in clarifying those changes and assisting you through the transition. We also regret the frustrations you encountered with your hosting and email, as well as during your downgrade and domain visibility requests.
We’ve already connected with you directly to review these concerns and ensure everything was addressed. Although your services have since been canceled, please know that our team is always here to help should you decide to return. We’d be glad to support you again in the future and assist during any transition period.
We sincerely appreciate your candid feedback, as it helps us improve and serve our customers better.

Nexcess was Great. No More.
I have been a web developer for 20+ years and have been using Nexcess Wordpress Cloud Servers for over 10 years. I loved them. Mostly for their unparalleled over the phone, almost instant customer service. This year they removed that service in lieu of text only and I am about to relocate all my clients. It takes too long, they are obviously juggling multiple people on chat at the same time, they are not nearly as friendly or knowledgeable, the nickle and dime for everything now and just awful to deal with. Anyone can create decent servers. Their customer service set them apart. Now they are like everyone else. Below average.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for being a loyal customer for so many years. We truly value your long-standing trust in Nexcess, and we’re very sorry to hear that your recent experiences have not lived up to the standard you’ve come to expect from us.
We understand how important fast, knowledgeable, and friendly support is, especially when you’ve relied on it for over a decade. While we’ve made some changes to how support is delivered, our commitment to providing exceptional service has not changed. We’re actively working to improve our chat experience so that it’s as efficient, responsive, and personal as our phone support has been in the past.
Your feedback about response times, the quality of interactions, and pricing is incredibly valuable. We’ll make sure it’s shared directly with our leadership team, as customer input plays a crucial role in shaping our service improvements.
We’d greatly appreciate the chance to talk with you directly and learn more about your specific challenges. Please reach out to us and we’ll make sure your concerns are addressed with the attention they deserve.
Thank you again for your candid review and for giving us the opportunity to improve. We hope we can regain your confidence.

Avoid this company at all costs
I thought the company linked with Nexcess and with 24/7 support would be just what I need. Wrong!!! Avoid this company at all costs. It seems their support team has only one script. But unable to think outside the box and resolve the issue. What a joke!!
Sales teams are great but the tech team is completely useless. However, I'm pleased to say that after our complaint, all was resolved.

Hi Ree Dee,
We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration it caused. Your feedback is very important to us, and we’ve taken your concerns seriously.
After escalating your case to our support leadership, we identified that the downtime you experienced was caused by PHP max children errors. Unfortunately, this resulted in extended delays and communication gaps that fell short of our standards for timely resolution. We understand how disruptive this was for your site and your business, and we sincerely apologize.
To ensure this issue is fully resolved and does not recur, a senior technician has completed a comprehensive review of your site. This included not only addressing the PHP errors but also assessing additional opportunities to strengthen overall site stability and performance.
We value your trust and are committed to doing better. If you’d be open to it, we’d like the chance to speak with you directly to make sure your site is performing as expected and to restore your confidence in our team. Please reach out to us and we’ll ensure you’re connected with a senior member of our support staff right away.
Thank you again for sharing your experience. We’re committed to using this feedback to continue improving the quality of our support.

Hosting is eh
Hosting is... eh. I'm on an outdated version of PHP while paying for premium hosting prices. Not great.
Customer support and billing is pretty bad though. I've been trying to get a response from customer support about billing for two weeks without a response, in the meantime, they over-billed me for the service I received.
Check your bills and make sure they bill you properly.

Hello Brian,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your recent experience and understand how frustrating billing and plan concerns can be.
Our team has already reviewed your case in detail:
Billing & Refund: While the system applied charges based on the timing of your downgrade, we absolutely want to make this right. We’ve coordinated with our Billing and Finance teams, and a refund is already being processed for you.
Hosting Plan Options: You are currently on a legacy WordPress Spark plan. We recently introduced new Managed WordPress plans, and the ability to select these directly from your client portal will be available later this month. In the meantime, we’ve noted your request to move to the Spark – Launch plan, and we’ll ensure you’re supported through that transition. If you are charged extra on the next invoice before the new plan is available, we’ll apply credits to your account.
We truly value your business and patience while we finalize these updates. Our team will continue to monitor your case and follow up with you directly to make sure everything is resolved to your satisfaction.
Sincerely,
The Liquid Web Team

I recently tried to order hosting from this company, but my account was rejected right after payment with a vague explanation. The email I received only listed generic reasons like “IP blacklisting, previous problematic account status, or problems with the address/name” without telling me what the actual issue was.
I’ve never had problems with other hosting providers, so this felt unprofessional and frustrating. Instead of helping me resolve the situation, they just closed my account. If you need reliable and transparent service, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

Hello Kristián,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We sincerely regret that your interaction with us felt frustrating and unclear.
To provide context, your account was automatically flagged by our fraud prevention system, which is designed to protect our customers from potentially unauthorized or fraudulent transactions. When this occurs, our team makes every effort to verify accounts by reaching out directly. In your case, we attempted to contact you by phone to help resolve the issue by verifying your information, but we weren’t able to connect.
Because we didn’t receive confirmation at that time, the account was closed as a security measure. However, we’re glad to see that you were later able to complete an order successfully by providing verification, which allowed us to activate your account.
We understand how frustrating this must have been and appreciate your patience throughout the process. Transparency and reliability are extremely important to us, and we’ll continue improving our communication to ensure these types of situations are clearer and less stressful for our customers in the future.
If you have any further concerns or if there’s anything we can do to make your experience better, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team directly. We’re always here to help.
