I had an employee mess up my monthly fees and not inform me until a month later, only after my services were removed was i made aware of the issue and the exneelo team (specifically Elain) helped me get all the issues sorted in less than 5 minutes and answer my dumb questions after the fact. Thank you guys so very much for your help and im so sorry again for the mess my employee made.

No other hosting provider's customer support comes close to xneelo! Great job guys, you give me peace! Well done Kyron and Elaine!

An absolute pleasure dealing with Seymone. The level of customer service provided to me was exceptional to say the least. Extremely responsive, calm and helpful - just an overall brilliant experience. Thank you Seymone! Keep up the amazing work!

Xneelo’s service has always been top-notch and truly five-star, however over the past few months there has been a noticeable decline. Over the last two days alone, I’ve experienced multiple issues with servers and websites, and each time I’ve reached out via chat, the waiting time has exceeded 60 minutes.
Today, a client’s website went down, and I waited over an hour for assistance from Brent. While the issue was eventually resolved, the sites went down again shortly thereafter. I have now been waiting for more than 75 minutes and am still awaiting support.
I’m concerned about how this aligns with the level of service Xneelo is known for, especially as my client is now holding me responsible for the downtime.

Keep up the awesome customer service.
I have to mention this lady by name as she was very knowledgeable, professional and clued up.
Thank you SEYMONE!!!!

I had a malware attack on my website and Seymone Carstens helped me in less then 20 mins. Everything working again. What a superstar. Best support I have ever seen in my life. Thanks a lot

I have been using Xneelo (previously hetzner) for at least 5 years
I cannot rate them highly enough. They are professional and personal when dealing with a problem or enquiry. They are also extremely helpful and give excellent advice when required/ requested. The technical service is great but it's the customer service that stands out and makes me continue yo utilise their services

We received very professional help from Izak. He was well informed, clear, and supportive through the process.

Real Human Support When It Matters Most
After nearly 2 hours on the phone, Rene at Xneelo didn't solve my problem—because it turned out to be outside their scope entirely. But here's why I'm writing this review anyway:
She could have passed me off after 10 minutes. Instead, she dug deep, eliminated every possibility on their end, and gave me clear direction for what to tackle next. She made a complex technical mess finally make sense to me, without once making me feel stupid for not understanding it.
In a world of chatbots and scripted responses, Xneelo's human support is what actually solves problems. Please never lose this—it's what sets you apart.
Rene, thank you for the patience, expertise, and genuine care. Years as a customer, and you've reminded me why I stay.

I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional support I’ve consistently received from Henry dP. Over numerous occasions, Henry has gone far above and beyond what any technical consultant is expected to do. His professionalism, deep technical knowledge, and unwavering dedication have made a massive difference every time I needed assistance.
What truly sets Henry apart is his reliability. No matter how urgent or complex the issue, Henry approaches every challenge with calm expertise and a solution-driven mindset. He communicates clearly, resolves problems quickly, and makes the entire process smooth and stress-free.
People like Henry are rare—he doesn’t just do his job; he elevates it. His consistent excellence, patience, and commitment to customer success are exactly why he absolutely deserves recognition and a well-earned bonus. He is an asset to the team, the company, and everyone who has the privilege of working with him.
I cannot recommend Henry highly enough.
Outstanding service, every single time.

We have been a client of many years of self-service Servers with Xneelo and have always had consistent great service from the team.
We needed a server set up for our DR simulation of our production server (also hosted with Xneelo).
The experience was extremely quick from ordering for Xneelo to get the Windows Server 2022 set up and we were able to restore and test our DR simulation very efficiently - much appreciated.
They are truly a cut-above in terms of responsiveness. Well done.

A company I've been consulting for over the past year uses Xneelo for their website hosting, and it's generally ok. However, the website was unresponsive for several hours today, even when tested on multiple devices, users, networks, and online tools. I tried to gather information using the Xneelo Control Panel, which was about as useful as a chocolate teapot.
When I contacted Support using the chatbot, I was told everything was fine _for them_ so end of story, right? The website did work for a hot second in incognito mode, so I thought maybe it was a caching issue and cleared cache and cookies -- you know the routine.
But no, that also stopped working, and the outage got worse, to the point that even some of the few tools available to me in the Control Panel weren't working (notably Manage DNS). When I contacted Support again, I was put in a queue for a while, then connected to the same person from before. They again said it was fine for them without checking any of the tools I mentioned (e.g. GTmetrix). When I repeated that Manage DNS wasn't responding either, they blamed a Cloudflare outage and shared a link to an incident report marked as Resolved 20 hours prior.
What can I say? When it works, it works. But as soon as there's an issue, the tools provided are limited, forcing you to contact a Support team that is probably trained to deal with business users and not technical people who need more detail.

I've recently moved to Xneelo from another popular ISP, and I can honestly say that the service is in another league - superfast, super friendly, and super efficient. Also, my wordpress websites are SO much faster, it's a game changer! Thanks Xneelo.

I’ve been with Xneelo for over 10 years, and today was another reminder why. Zane V went well beyond expectations helping me resolve a complex query. As a web developer who deals with many hosting providers, I’m repeatedly impressed by Xneelo’s depth of technical knowledge and their willingness to dig in until an issue is fully solved. Zane was patient, clear, and proactive—anticipating edge cases and explaining the “why,” not just the “what.” It’s rare to find support that’s both highly technical and genuinely customer-focused. If I could give 10 stars out of 5, I would. Thank you, Zane, and thank you Xneelo, for consistently excellent service.

I had a great experience with Kian who was very patient and professional in assisting me with a transfer of ownership of a domain. I found that there were always sound delays on phone calls with Xneeelo making it difficult to have conversations, however, emails were promptly responded to by Kian and he was fantastic in resolving my issue.

I needed help navigating Xneelo and setting up Collaborators and security codes etc. Called Xneelo and spoke to a very helpful person called Chloe. The entire process was made simple and painless with Chloe's help and guidance. Her patience and kindness was beyond measure. Thank you once again Chloe. To management, Chloe is indeed an asset to your organisation.

Xneelo support is always top notch! I have never left with my issue unresolved and their team is quick to respond and friendly. Zane has now been able to successfully help me resolve a range of issues.
