What our customers say
My first real experience with Fasthosts
My first real experience with the server team after purchasing a VPS from them and had to call them on a Sunday morning with a problem I didn't understand. I have to say that in the 20 years I've been dabbling in web hosting this guy was one of the most helpful Tech Support people I've ever spoken to. I used to think that my previous web hosting company support (Zen) were good, but Fasthosts, so far, are outstanding.
I purchased a VPS from Fasthosts
I purchased a VPS from Fasthosts, and it-s fantastic! The speed is excellent for my websites. Initially, I bought it for one month to test the performance, and I was very impressed. Later, I received a call from Glen Contawe from support to check if everything was okay. I asked him to switch my plan from rolling payments to a contract, and he handled it quickly and smoothly. Great service – thank you!
Easy to follow options when setting up VPS
Easy to follow options when setting up VPS. Plenty of price plans, from monthly payment options all the way to paying for multiple years in advance. Setup process was easy to follow and online dashboard is not complex to navigate. VPS firewall had sensible initial settings for http and ssh already running, and changing these as needed was simple to do. Good range of hardware options for cpu and data storage at reasonable prices.
