great solution

The situation has improved, but it has taken quite some time to reach this stage. I would be grateful if this case could be escalated to a more senior technician or advanced support team for a deeper review and faster final resolution.

Thank you again for your continued help and support.

10+ years of consistent great experience

Using their webhosting for over 10 years. During this time there support helpfulness and speed has remained consistent. For me they have stood the test of time.

We cannot say thank you enough for being such a loyal customer :) -- we appreciate you hosting with us for so long, and look forward to that continuing another 10 years!

Awesome shared host with great customer service...

Customer service is top notch and made it fast, easy, and painless to switch from my previous host. To make things even better my recurring costs at Hawk Host are not much higher than the price I paid at the previous host (and that includes the 50% off deal I had with the previous host). And the icing on the cake is that the basic plan at Hawk Host has far more to offer both in hardware specs and software tools than the mid tier plan I was on with my previous host. All in all, I wish I had switched sooner.

Good support with fast response and reasonable price, the speed in my case much better than many " well known " hosting providers.

20 years of nothing but excellence

I’ve probably been with HawkHost for almost 20 uninterrupted years. Wow… saying that out loud made me feel old.

I’ve only used the shared hosting plan and VPS a couple of times. Good performance and bang for your buck. Default cPanel and fair space/limits (emails, domains, bandwidth, storage, etc.). External health checks confirm declared SLA uptime.

Where HawkHost amazes me - support. Staff always replies within minutes. Even if you have a stupid question at 3am on a Sunday, they’re quite patient and super friendly. For 20 years, any time I’ve opened a ticked, a (real) staff member replied within 5-10 minutes.

Just pulled up your account and you're not wrong about 20 years! Saying thank you is not nearly enough for hosting with us for that long, but please trust we *genuinely* appreciate it. You've been around as long as our founders at this point :P

I'll make sure the support team sees this feedback. That's really very nice to read and I know they'll like it too.

Fingers crossed for another 20 years to come :)

Excellent Customer Service

I was at my prior hosting company for 25 years. Hawk Host Customer Service is quick and knowledgeable.
Their free migration service was quick, painless, and thorough.
