I am really impressed with CWCS

I am really impressed with CWCS. We've been with them for just over a year now and there was only one period of time where my server has been down (when they were moving racks about and even then it was at 3am!) Their support is outstanding, I've never had to wait long for a ticket update, and there's always someone technical on the end of the phone.

Safe to say I trust these guys for all of my Dedicated Server needs. Keep up the good word!

Wholehearted support

I'm only a small user but have been with CWCS since their earliest days and have always found them very helpful and responsive when I have had a problem and they can supply the basic package I need. The Plesk set-up interface can be little intimidating for the non-technical user.

Best hosting provider with 1st class customer support

We have worked with CWCS for over 10 years, and to say they are good is an understatement. They are more than an a partner and actually view them and their incredible service level as actually part of our own team. Use these guys, you won't find better.

I have been with them for ages

I have been with them for ages, both with co-lo and dedicated servers.

Knowing that there is someone there at 3 in the morning who knows what they are doing when the server fails after some updates is so very reassuring.

I have had nothing but excellent service from them at all times.

I have recently transferred all of my customers to a new vps hosted by CWCS. I went for the silver level of service. It's been two months now and I have been delighted with the support and service. Response is fast and if anything does take any time to resolve the CWCS team keep you up to date without being asked! So far I'm a very happy customer.

We have had a dedicated server with CWCS for about 7 years. On the few occasions it has been necessary to raise a support ticket the response has always been fast and the issue resolved speedily.

We have used CWCS to host a number of sites on their cloud platform for a few years. The quality of the service has been consistently good together with the level of support from the staff.

Their technical support has been happy to answer questions in addition to resolving any issues.

Pricing has been competitive and I am very happy I found CWCS when searching for somewhere to house our websites.

Sites always go down. Different excuses for what the issues are and no-one seems to ever really know.

Sites always going down. Nowhere near 99% uptime...more like 80%
