Cheap can be very expensive
I was looking for a new hosting provider, and FatCow offered such great value for money I couldn’t resist – signing up for two years. I manage about a dozen websites, mostly for clients.
FatCow is very cheap. But migrating has been a two-week nightmare of DNS failure, level 1 tech support with limited English and even more limited training, and departments that blame each other. The control panel mostly works, but when it crashes it overwrites DNS records that then cannot be changed by the user. Two of my websites are still not resolving, and staff cannot give a sensible explanation of why.
FatCow does not give refunds, or I would have taken one ten days ago.
Have been a Fatcow customer for more than 3 years and can’t complain about their service. Some times my wordpress site is slowing down for some reason, but fortunately this is not a permanent issue. Overall is a good hosting, however for the live chat support is not the best. I will renew my account shortly.
