Minimalistic in web design and range of services, Globat.com has a quality that is difficult to ignore: their motto – ‘Web Hosting Made Simple’ – is true, as the only service they provide is shared hosting.
It has more than 17 years of experience, and it is based in the US and has two data centers in Boston, MA.
It is worthy of note that centers were acquired by the Endurance International, a hosting giant that owns such
It appears that the acquisition played a significant role in the changes the Globat service quality underwent.

The feedback about the company is mostly negative. There are many a customer telling the same story: the hosting provider used to be a good one when it was owned by the couple that had founded it in 2001, but then it went downhill.
The uptime leaves much to be desired, the customer support department is not helpful, and there are account management problems (like having to make a call to cancel subscription – simply canceling it online won’t do).
The few positive reviews supporting Globat.com are outnumbered by negative ones to such an extent that one may start having second thoughts about signing up. Still, there are those satisfied with the service, and they are really wondering why the storm of anger. And so we were.
