What people are saying

Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆
They don't care about the customer

“They don't care about the customer. Please hire professionals. They simply block you and close the conversation, saying this is not our concern, please follow this link, that's how they ended the conversation.”

Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆
Use a different host provider that cares about their customers

“Like most typical human beings, i can forget things when life gets busy and hectic… last month I forgot to cancel my monthly membership with pantheon and only remembered when the usual invoice email arrived in my inbox.. I instantly messaged pantheon, within 5 minutes of the renewal, and explained my mistake and…”

Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆
The absolute worst hosting I've ever…

“The absolute worst hosting I've ever used by far. Zero control over anything that actually matters. See thier list of "Known issues" that contains a list of some of the most major wordpress plugins, with no real solutions. Support offers zero help other than obscure command line, bash script workarounds that are…”

Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆
This company really sucks

“This company really sucks. I used to move all my clients to their platform years ago, but now I’m moving them all off. Their website is a mess and the documentation is archaic and kafkaian. You’ll waste hours just trying to SSH into a server or find your files— even ChatGPT has a hard time figuring things out. And if…”

Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆
Use Pantheon and Bill Clients for extra hours.

“Developers will recommend this company to host their clients websites so they can bill for extra hours. It takes a developer five times longer to work within Pantheon than it does other webhosts. The workflow is awful.”
