Alentus Acquires Two Web Hosts - April 23, 2008 - Web hosting provider Alentus (alentus.com), which is owned by Web hosting equity firm EnActen, announced on Wednesday that it has acquired Linux-based Web hosting providers Website Source (websitesource.com) and SpeedFox (speedfox.com). The financial details of the cash and stock transaction were not disclosed. Founded in 1998 and based in Austin, Texas, Website Source and its subsidiary SpeedFox, which was founded in 2002, offer Linux-based shared hosting, virtual private servers, dedicated servers, e-commerce and domain registration services. Website Source operates a Cisco-powered data center facility in Austin and manages over 200 servers, says the press release. Alentus says that the acquisition immediately adds $2.6 million in annual revenue to its current long-term profitable operations record and will add an additional 14,000 clients to its client portfolio. The current Website Source infrastructure is being integrated into the Alentus global, redundant Cisco-powered network and all Texas staff has been retained, says Alentus. "This acquisition provides a stable and solid addition of Linux powered Web hosting to the Alentus client base," says William King, CEO of Alentus. "And at the same time, it offers Windows hosting options to Website Source and SpeedFox clients. We are pleased with how the companies complement one another and look forward to growing our client base by offering a more complete menu of website hosting services to the Internet community."

s sausedo ( ssausedo@e... ) | DO NOT SIGN UP WITH SPEEDFOX!
I have have been fairly happy with speedfox overthe last couple of years and have had pretty good support when an occasional problem occurred but, over the last few months, they have nose-dived out of control it seems.
A few months back the servers became infected and all of my sites got flagged by Google. I had not uploaded any infected files myself but because it is shared hosting my sites became "Know Malicious/dangerous sites and I was notified by clients [...]

Amy ( orders@s... ) | I've been with Speedfox for 5 years. At first, they were a great company but recently they are terrible. Customer service is a joke. They reply, but nothing gets fixed. My site and/or my email have been down about 5 of the past 8 weeks. When I sent an email to support to let them know that their support ticket feature wasn't working, I got a somewhat rude reply that information regarding technical issues was sent to my email. That would have been helpful if my email had actually been [...]

Jim Dietrick ( pinballrevival@c... ) | My website is down, and has been for 3 days, and no form of help is available from Speedfox. Call are directed to a mailbox where no one is available. Attempts at live chat support result in a time out saying live chat is not available. There is no message on their homepage! I may contact a lawyer - this is seriously affecting my business! I am absolutely switching to a different host! STAY AWAY FROM SPEEDFOX!!!!

Al Kalar ( alkalar@k... ) | The service is actually getting worse. Especially the email client.
All email was down from March 18 through March 23.
Today, April 1 (how appropriate), the SMTP server is down.
At least they have a web page where you can see what's going on.
Since they host thousands of sites, I'm surprised that more people aren't taking their ire to the Internet review sites such as this one.
BTW, the problems seem to have started after they were acquired by Alentus (who also own Website [...]

Al Kalar ( alkalar@v... ) | Follow-up on previous review:
Speed Fox is having major problems. A client's DB based site has been up and down (mostly down) for the past 3 days, an intolerable situation. Email has been down hard for all 4 of my clients who are hosted there. HTML only pages come up just fine. I suspect they are having trouble with a DB server and Email may be on that server as well. Given the number of clients they have, it's possible they only have two or three servers devoted to their Speed Fox [...]

Al Kalar ( alkalar@v... ) | Overall, Speed Fox does what it says. Lots of space for multiple sites. Email facilities are spacious, although on the 3-star plan, you're limited to 5 mailing lists. Also, if you make up your lists on your email software (such as Outlook), you're limited to around 30 names (an anti-spam feature that can be a bit frustrating if you have a LOT of friends you send jokes to). They have a large list of freeware scripts you can use for eCommerce, blogs, forums, and such. If you don't see what [...]
