Excellent Support
CWCS are like our outsourced IT Department. Building and hosting websites is our main business and it is essential that we have a reliable supplier that can support all our requirements and free up our time to concentrate on our main activity. Over the last 15 years we have had arrangements with a number of data-centers but would recommend CWCS above all.
CWCS staff are friendly, helpful and informed.
I have been with CWCS for a year and they are very friendly and helpful. They have excellent technical support staff who have solved problems for me, and pointed me in the right direction every time I have contacted them. Even my complicated problems which have needed some analyse have been looked into and I have been given an answer in just a few days. I can recommend CWCS as excellent company to be in business with.
CWCS would apear in our top 5 suppliers out of 50+ that we use
As CWCS website states; Enterprise-Class hosting - this is delivered from a flexible and friendly team. We have only experienced a few minor disruptions in service over the past couple of years, but I strongly feel support jump on these immediately and learn from them so they don't happen again. When we need to log support tickets for hands on changes, including equipment restarts in our Co-Lo they are handled very professionally and quicker than I would have imagined. CWCS defiantly have a going above and beyond approach to their customer service.
1st Class Service and Support
I have a dedicated server at CWCS and host several websites for my clients as well as my business. If i have any questions or issues, the support is first class. In four years i have never had to contact them regarding downtime as there simply has not been any. I would recommend CWCS to anyone who requires first class service and support.
Caring; Watchful; Clear; Secure
You know I have been using this host for some 4 years now and found it to be the most reliable. My previous host used to fail at least once a month sometimes even more I have only had 1 failure when they had some sort of power outage..
Recommend it you BET
Top notch
I've been with CWCS for a long and have never had to look elsewhere, nor have I wanted to. Great customer service, I feel like I have my own account manager who knows me. They say you pay for what you get, however, I've paid more with others and received less.
CWCS delivery spot on
needed a speedy response to a potential issue with a new European site and they delivered with the solution with no fuss.
Excellent service.
Clearly Wonderful Client Service (CWCS - geddit?)
To start with a cliché (it gets better) 'You get what you pay for'. CWCS aren't the cheapest guys on the block by a long shot, but they're MY guys on the block. They always over-deliver in terms of support, and more than once have sorted out problems that my clients have caused (and that I didn't know how to fix) and which truthfully could not have been reasonably required of CWCS to sort out. But sort out they did. I have asked technical questions from idiotic to fiendishly tough and they are always polite and thorough. Service can at times be a little slow and for the most part they keep us informed. This is an area that could be improved somewhat but I am careful to load my requests with the right level of urgency and if it is big emergency they always come good. They take their jobs and business seriously and strive to improve and upgrade. For reasons mostly to do with where clients have existing sites hosted not all my eggs are in the CWCS basket but I know from my experiences dealing with some of the big boys that bigger is not better. Dealing with overseas call centres might be OK if you are querying your gas bill but if it's tech talk, trust me you don't want it. I starred with a cliche and I'll end with my Grandpa's favourite cliché: 'Buy cheap buy twice'.
Great technical support!
Have been with CWCS for over 10 years, now hosting about 70 sites for clients with them. I am a typical creative, know what I want to see, but have neither the patience or the ability when it comes to the technical side! CWCS's support has always been on hand to help when needed.
Highly recommended
Great Service and Back Up Support
CWCS have been providing our hosting services for over 5 years now. We tried several providers before we finally settled on CWCS.
We started on a shared server and quickly progressed to a dedicated server which has served us really well. Support has always been excellent as is pre-sales advice.
I recommend CWCS as they provide a fast and reliable service.
Very good and still improving
I've am very happy with the service of CWCS and their managed hosting. They are a growing company and are aiming high; both in terms of products & solutions offered as well as technical expertise.
They are ISO 27001 accredited and offer us exactly what we need in a hosting provider at a good price.
They are also very happy for you to go visit them and tour their operations.
Couldn't ask for better service!
Actually every time I call them they manage to satisfy my needs with (apparently) very little effort. If there were more stars I'd have awarded them!
Great service!
CWCS are our chosen hosting "partners" because they care about what they do, take ownership when things go awry and they answer their phone! I'd have no hesitation recommending them.
They work, most of the time....
I have dealt with CWCS for a great number of years. Up until the past year, they have been wonderful. However, we have had clients that have left us due to email servers not working. Their IT experts have claimed that it is down to the CWCS server, and we have no evidence to doubt that - it is not only one client but many saying the same thing.
However, it must be said that their customer service is impeccable and they do everything they can to fix your problems as soon as they can. The server speed is also very high, although make sure you subscribe to their maintenance calendar so that you know when your hosting server is going to be down for testing. They do not inform you unless you subscribe - which is a little confusing and has caused us problems in the past.
Overall, we have had our ups and downs. We continue to use CWCS although we are looking for another hosting provider for future endeavours as to avoid the troubles.
Web hosting second to none!
I have been a client of CWCS for around 16 years and have found them to be very professional in all things. When I have had a problem (usually my own fault) their technical support team sort it out very quickly. I would highly recommend CWCS for any/all your hosting needs.
This company could not even take the responsibility of renewing a domain and they host!!! WOW
Could you imagine a hosting company does not renew a domain even though auto renew was on? if they cant make a simple task like this, could you imagine to be responsible for hosting? I purchased the company, they transferred the domain-- but they transferred (as they say) a cancelled domain (cancelled as far as their system thought) to me.- so unprofessional. They "believe" the domain was cancelled on their system prior to me purchasing the company..pretty ridiculous! TO HAVE AUTO RENEW ON AND CANCELLATION? TO SETUP A NEW ACCOUNT WITH A CANCELLED DOMAIN? CANCELLED DOMAIN OPERATING FOR 9 MONTHS? what type of system do they have that does not send flags. Certainly not enough protection built in to save me. Auto renew was on so I trusted that they would renew it. They did not..it expired SO 30 days AFTER THAT, my website went down and i could not even get the emails from my customers.. They even invoiced me for domain management even though there was no domain. Do they not have triggers in their system or flags? BE CAREFUL WITH THIS COMPANY...IF YOU RELY ON YOUR DOMAIN..THEY MAY NOT RENEW IT WHEN IT IS DUE AND THEY WILL COME UP WITH EXCUSES AND NOT EVEN OWN THE PROBLEM. it took me over an hour to convince the emergency support desk to do something..that my site was down but because it was domain related...they did not feel this was something they could handle over the weekend. This company is unprofessional and a total mess. i dont even know how they could be in business if a simple task can get so messed up.
