"I'm hosting my website on a Host Color's Multi Domain plan for 2 years. They do a very good job for me and always respond to my support tickets and request very fast. However there is something else that I really like with them. They are open and honest company and they always keep to their promises. I can say that they never misled me withing the last 2 years. Their prices are fair and they do not oversell. I have recently upgraded from Shared hoting to a VPS and they gave me very good contract for a Virtuozzo based VPS called VPS Advance. Check them and I think you will experience the same good service I get." Jurgen Neubaue <jurgenn at fastmail dot net> / babelnetz.com

July 28, 2011 -anonymous- ( -no email- ) | This company is a joke. We just took over an account which has there site hosted by Host Color. It has been a nightmare trying to work with them, they say "world famous" 24/7 support, but the only thing they good about is picking up the phone, after that good luck trying to understand whoever you're talking to, sounds like the same guy every time, very heavy accent and sounds like he has a mouth full of mashed potatoes. You can forget the support ticket system, it gets lost in the void. If you [...]

May 4, 2011 Adriana Cal ( rpds@l... ) | I have been a client since 2004 and in all these years I have experienced excellent customer support, they reply in 10 minutes thru their ticket system, and always were very speedy to solve any kind of issue. Also I have experienced an excellent uptime. Their features are the standard for any hosting, this when compared with their cheap prices is oustanding.

April 7, 2011 Diyan Nenov ( diyan.nenov@g... ) | We are VPS customer of Host Color in Europe and I would like to say that we are very satisfied of the reliability of the network and of the management service of the HostColor.com. Their Fully managed VPS called "FM VPS" is at very reasonable pricing. We needed to get our Drupal websites and the whole virtual server optimized and a Host Color system administrator has done a very good job in optimizing our OpenVZ based VPS.

April 2, 2011 A1Opex ( -no email- ) | Hostcolor.com has lived up to expectation of its tag line which is Web hosting about people, not about gigabytes. I could not say more how customer oriented there are when it comes to specific issues faced by the customer. For me, who is a non tech savvy person, I had initially faced the firewall issue with my network provider. Instead of throwing me a tutorial or URLs which I need to read and figure how to resolve it, they really took time to find solutions for me. And their help has [...]

March 21, 2011 Wulf ( wulftr@g... ) | I host 3 websites on the CMS Hosting plan of HostColor.com for 3 years and I'm very satisfied of the quality of their Shared Hosting service. Their support responds promptly to support tickets and uses Skype to chat with customers. The support operators are friendly and competent.
Another good thing about Host Color is that they do not oversell and do not limit resource usage. That's why I can recommend them to anyone.

January 12, 2011 Bayuo Blaise ( blaise@r... ) | I'm have a dedicated server with hostcolor they have given us all the necessary support that we needed. What is more important was the fact that, a senior staff was dedicated to explain the benefits of each of the hosting packages and how they meet our needs. Customer service is satisfactory and we get notices anytime they have to do server maintenance. I haven't encountered any major problem yet.

I'm not sure how the folks at Host Color work to keep their servers up, but I'm pretty sure they are doing great job for making my website very stable and problem free.
I've tried many web hosting service providers in the past and they weren't as good as Host Color -- particularly with shared hosting. The customer support at Host Color is just very [...]

I don't have skills in website management and the only thing I can do is to use WordPress without even being able to change things on my design theme. Host Color has registered my domain name and helped me to set up my account. I didn't have any issues with them within the last 4 years. They have even saved my domain from redemption last year, when I forgot to renew it in time.
I realize that my website isn't that [...]

November 22, 2009 Dan ( globusbg@y... ) | Hello,
I have been hosting my websites with this hosting provider for more than a 5 years. when I have signed up with them the web hosting providers weren't than many as they are now. Most of them used to respond customers within 1 or 2 business days. Unlike others Host Color used to respond promptly to support tickets, I still get answers within no more than 15 minutes. The only thing they needed to change through the years is to fix some bugs in their own control panel. However they [...]

I went searching in Google and compared the pricing and the features of the VPS hosting plan some web hosts offered. Then I decided to choose Host Color. The reason for this choice was that they have responded very fast to my enquiry and offered some help and [...]

They have excellent support and always respond to my questions within 10 to 20 minutes. Their support system is called pZone and is very convenient to use it, because it brings the management of all accounts, affiliate interface and communication with support within in the same account under 2 screens.
Another good thing about Host Color is that they use to help me with the website maintenance, something that other web hosts [...]

September 4, 2009 TimelessVoice ( -no email- ) | I found HostColor about a year ago, and have to say they are truly run the way that all hosting companies should be.
Initially, I was looking for some cheap hosting that provided me with the basics. Of course HostColor had all those. But the thing that tipped the scale was the superb customer support that they have. 24/7, 365 days a year! The tech guys are well trained, personable, and fast. They made me feel like I mattered as a person, not only as a potential client.
