😠 BEWARE of tacky pricing and unreliable uptime! Read below.

The great migration issue:
I've been Apollo Hosting customer for almost 10 years now and haven't swithced between companies much at all. I used to have many accounts with them and brought them $1000's a year. Everything were smooth and only few fixable problems here and there until fall 2009 everything kinda fell and accumulated to this big junk of problems. Accounts started to go offline. When we tried to reach their support, they said they were migrating. And NO word prior action. Just like that, lights off. That took weeks and months to get about 50% of those half limping websites back online again and many never made it. Google rankings, customer flow and all gone, scripts inop, custom programs, shopping carts farting errors left and right.

Plans:
Their plans (pre 2009) were great and still propably are to some point. Had good options as far as platforms, soft and hardware.

Tech support:
Used to handle most of the problems thru their tech support chat which was great. Nowadays many non-brainer problems (which most of mine are) must be send thru their ticketing system and they end up somewhere in the galaxies. You'd need yet another set of un/pw to follow up on it and it they think it's solved they'll mark it solved and close the ticket without asking you whether it fixed the problem or not. They should have 1800 number as well, but I never tried it, since I'm multitasking and it's hard to spell some perl code or folder/filenames over the hollar. Chat was easy..copy-paste.

Pricing:
Their pricing would be very competitive versus what they claim on their own website they are, but reality after the 2009 migration incident proved this a red false. BEWARE: The prices on their website are for promotional only and will more than double for your next invoice if you continue with them!

Uptime:
Uptime used to be great until 2009 summer. No complaints and some random maintenance sessions at times that were told for account holders beforehand. Pre2009 they had problem which took my site down for too long. After talking to manager they refunded that month out. Also experienced some heavy traffic and the extra traffic was fined but later refunded. After 2009 were unable to talk about pricing. Period. If you paid too much, too bad.

Under another owner now...?:
There's a list online somewhere, which stated that Apollo Hosting was purchased by another company which would greatly explain the hasslefull migration. There was a list of about 20-25 other hosting companies that were bought as well. I don't find the list at the moment, but just google it yourself.

Conclusion:
This writing could go on and on, but I already spent countless hours trying to fix their errors that I don't feel like rethinking about them anymore. Just stay away and run to the hills if you hear that AH -word...

Alternatives please:
Hopefully someone would refer me to another _reliable_ hosting that would care their customers...Man, I used to LOVE Apollohosting back in the day when they were on the ball. Too bad they're no more. RIP.
