We recently switched hosting our domains to Smarthost. Primarily because their rates were significantly cheaper. But in our short time of dealing with their support team they have been very responsive. They made switching over our domains really easy. Based on our experience we would be happy to recommend their services.

Ian gave excellent guidance and was very patient, helping me every step of the way as I am inexperienced in this field. His helpfulness and assistance made the process less stressful and very simple. Great service hugely recommended.

Excellent Customer Service

Delighted to have found an Irish hosting company that provides a decent service while also being cost effective. The customer support I have received from Ian and Graeme has been second to none, for that reason I continue to choose Smarthost for my clients.

The best registrar I have ever experienced.

The support staff are next-level. They're incredibly knowledgeable, patient, quick-to-reply and beyond helpful!
Graeme provided excellent customer service and went above-and-beyond with helping me register a domain and fix any errors I made throughout the process.
Truly the best registrar I have ever worked with and cannot recommend any higher!

Smarthost. Unmatched, Irish-based customer service

Graeme has been an incredible go to contact for advice and direction on everything to do with hosting since I trusted him to take on all my sites. At the time, I was paying through the nose and getting slow Uk-based customer service. Graeme and his team has brought a personal professionalism and always responsive and willing to go farther in addressing issues than they may be mandated. They are always available and very calm, patient and knowledgeable so I often think I should be paying a premium for the peace of mind that you have that they're looking after everything.

I use Smarthost for email hosting

I use Smarthost for email hosting. I spent some time looking for a reliable and affordable system. Smarthost really stood out, Ian is extremely helpful and out of everyone I contacted he was the only one to follow up with a call. The package is great value, it was really easy to set up and Ian has been really helpful again on the technical side of things.
I would highly recommend using Smarthost.

Highly recommended. Excellent service

I recently got my website transferred by Smarthost. Everything was done with such professionalism & efficiently right from the start. Any question that I asked of Graeme was dealt with quickly & with a friendly informative manner. The experience is one of a company that really wants do right by its customers & are not treated like a number. I am more than impressed with everything that SmartHost have done for me. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone that is looking for hosting that is reliable, affordable & to know that the support is there to help gives such peace of mind.

Thanks again

Highly recommend SmartHost

Highly recommend SmartHost - If you’re sick of slow hosting (Looking at a certain big name Irish provider 👀) then change to these guys. Speed is unreal and customer service is beyond amazing, their system is easy to use and they’re just very nice to deal with... I really hope they become the biggest Irish hosting company in time because, going by their attitude, they deserve it!
