Report for 2018

  • The company scored only 3.7 HRank, which automatically placed it in the 161st position. Not the end of the list but not the best rating either.
  • It can be explained, however, by the provider’s uptime performance in 2018. Its uptime was very unstable and full of 94%-98% downtime cases. This was enough to rate it quite low.
  • Its average response time, though not slow, couldn’t help much. A 500-600ms range is not bad, yet, could be better.
  • The number of Shared IPs lowered by 1 and there was a decreasing trend in the number of domains as well. Though, the decrease became less sharp than it was at the beginning of the monitoring period.
