A2Hosting Summary Analysis by HRank

As of 2018, the provider’s HRank rating left much to be desired (only 4.3, the 139th position on our list); for 2019 A2Hosting had 5.3 HRank and 133rd position. Such a low rating resulted from less than perfect performance in the monitoring period.

The web hosting’s uptime was bad for this period, 2 times values per day were 92% and 93% .

The provider’s response time can’t be called the fastest at any rate. In 2018 it stayed in the range of 900ms – 1,000ms.

An interesting fact is that the company increased the number of Shared IPs, and the number of domains as well, though the increase dynamics patterns differed between the former and the latter.

A2Hosting is not on our recommendation list.

Siteground isn’t good anymore so I don’t know how you rank them 9.3. They dropped the ball after they got rid of Cpanel and everything has being going down down down. They also took away resources while racing the price. You have no control anymore on your database..not worth the money anymore.
