After the negative hostgator review that I have posted few days ago. I found another hostgator review but this time it seems very honest to me. Cisco was the user who reviewed hostgator as initial impression. Very well done and very straight forward:
I recently switched over to HostGator after a horrific experience with HostNine. I ended up leaving HostNine after a period of downtime followed by one of their employees making strange demands of me in exchange for downtime credit. That incident and their snotty staff, overloaded servers, and inadequate WHM replacement resulted in me looking for a new host. After reading some positive reviews of HostGator on WHT I decided to give them a try.
Setup - 10/10
HostGator set up my account instantly, just as HostNine had done. One of HostGator’s staff members called me up and asked me if I needed help migrating my accounts. They went ahead and moved my accounts/files/databases and WHMCS installation over for me. I had been dreading moving WHMCS over because I thought it would be a real pain to set up the new HostGator license but it turned out to be a non-issue. When I originally signed up with HostNine no one bothered to contacted me about migrating my accounts and I had to do it manually.

I was searching for many Hostgator reviews and found 99% positive but that is too good to be true so at least I have found a customer that is not happy with them. The review came from Josh who had a horrible service with hostgator, I am trying to be neutral in hosting reviews and the best reviews are not the only “positive” ones. Is good to see the good and the bad face of a hosting company so I present you this hostgator review:
About 12 hours ago I ordered a dedicated server through HostGator. During the ordering process I chose PayPal as my payment option (I wasn’t asked for my PayPal email).
Order was complete, nothing was charged. A few minutes later I received a call from a HostGator rep telling me they need my PayPal email to get this going. No problem. I provided the email and was told my server would be up within 24 hours. I also replied to a ticket telling them my PayPal email just to be sure.
-PayPal email given to HostGator twice-
This morning I wake up and see an email from HostGator. I open it up and I see login details. The server is up and ready, right? Of course not.

If you check the forums of Hostgator you can see how active the users are there, and not just like this but you will get help from hostgator support team and even experienced customers. Here is a problem that I found on their forum a user in hostgator reseller plan
that have his online business with them and he had some problems with his shopping cart. Read the full story and the support:
Problem: I’m on a reseller plan. The server I’m hosted on has dual 2.4ghz CPUs. I was having some weird shopping cart problems, so I called up the shopping cart people and they said it sounded like a server load issue.
I checked the load avg, and it’s fluxuating between 4 and 9. Currently it’s at 5.88. From what I’ve read this is really high, and the shopping cart people are sure this is the problem (since nothing in the code nor database has changed at all).

Hostgator have been here since 2002, and their growing rate have been amazing. If you check Hostgator reviews you will know that 99.9% if not 100% are happy with them and I am one of them. But then today I was reading the hostgator official blog about “Competition Fights back“. My opinion in this is that Hostgaroo is just too low and if they are not serious to make an investment in their design how they will be serious with their customers and their servers?
To manage a hosting company is not easy as many thinks. It need budget and investing in their business improving their servers in the datacenter also they need seriousness when it comes to support. I just want to imagine when the problems comes in Hostgator how they will manage it. I didn’t test hostgaroo but for the copycat design of hostgator I can say that they are not serious in their business and may be some kids are behind this “company”.
