Support
Instant Technical Live Support: No
Hostica.com lays great emphasis on technical performance and therefore equips its centers with advanced hardware. The boast having “state of the art servers located in high tech data centers throughout America“.
They offer only a phone number and an email as support options. Lack of tech support is one of the drawbacks of their service. And their live chat replies: “Thanks! We usually reply in under 30 minutes.” Not the fastest response.
Hostica Summary Analysis by HRank
HRank – 3.7, position on our 2018 list – the 158th place.
On our 2019 list – 5.1 HRank and 139th place.
Hostica had several cases of 98% downtime in 2018. And a lot of cases in 2019 with bad uptimes: less than 96%.
Though, the response time results were better than the ones of uptime. In fact, they were closer to fast than to average: around 400ms.
The number of domains declined for 2 years. Perhaps, some existing customers decided to try something else (despite the fact that the last months’ performance improved).
Horrible hosting company. Been with them since their beginnings, when Jatek would actually answer my emails personally. Today I asked if they now have a website builder. I was given the run around by Diana, saying they might have it but it isn’t promised. Apparently it depends on whether or not I am a old customer or a new one? Asking if she understood I was asking a simple question that only had a possible yes or no answer she finallyl told me no. WTH? Why so difficult to get a straight answer.
