My Review 

The worst company I have ever worked with. More then 18 months and still cannot use the site they built. My ecommerce site is useless because the email system will not allow anyone to order. I have asked them to take the site down but it is up again and they want $30 every time I tell them it is back up. I feel I am being scammed by a company I paid more then $2000 to help me. It has been a nightmare...frustrating and a mind boggling disaster. Now 18 months later I am trying to find another company to take the site and get it done so I can actually use it. Do not use this company. They have many lawsuits and complaints filed with the state attorney general of Utah. They are not in the top 10, 500 or any top ranking but should be at the bottom. Do not fall for their marketing...stay away.

How long did you use this provider? 

1-5 years

Features of your hosting provider 

They have nothing to offer me but headaches. After nearly 12 months of constant complaining and even rewriting some of the information myself, a home page finally became "acceptable"...but so much pain and suffering and it continues to this day since I cannot use the site due to worthless email.

How much do you pay for your hosting? 

$26 - $50 / month

What OS is the hosting provider? 

I don't know

Would you recommend this to a friend? 

No
