😠 Avoid this Site5 company at all costs!!!
Several years ago, I was a longterm customer of a company they bought. Site5 used my credit card on file from three years ago to steal $400 from me. I don't even have a website URL.
Since they also cancelled my account. I can't even sign in to see their transactions. They have not responded to my inquiries on their website.
I have attached a printout that shows the account cancelled in 2019 but active in 2025. Not active but they took my money without notice.

😠 Our company was good at the beginning .. then each time they had problems they suggested buying a new VPS and so the months went by until you got the VPS7 that supposedly the ciadas and problems of the servers ended up but it has gone but this.
to the point that my website was cadia every 2 days.
Its online support is only limited to saying that the administrators work and it will not happen more but pure lies this support has become.
Apparently they are not aware of their servers and service once it reaches 8 hours if web service and only depended on a ticket to have answers.
I say do not buy something from this company for your good and emotional comfort. NODES problems are constant
Thank you

😠 Site5 is the worst
Site 5 is absolutely the worst hosting company we've ever dealt with, and we've dealt with many.
Constant down time. Just CONSTANT. We have one of their best plans and our server seriously needs rebooted every single solitary morning.
Their customer service is an awful joke. You don't have root access to fix anything so you're stuck with their CS breaking your server worse everytime they try to fix it for you.
We've opened 100+ tickets over the course of a year and you can not get support over the phone. It rings for 3 minutes then asks you to leave a voice mail so they can "respond quickly". We've. Never. Been. Called. Back. Not once!
Go anywhere else.

📄 Editorial Review
🔃 Site5 is part of Newfold Digital🔧 Services: Web HostingDomain Registration
⇔ Redirected from cloudbyix.com
⇔ Redirected from apthost.com ixwebhosting.com hostexcellence.com bluefur.com
Providing hosting services for a great number of years, Site5 offers high performance with their services and operate on a constantly-upgraded hardware platform.
The company offers the following web services:
- Shared Hosting;
- Reseller Hosting;
- VPS Hosting;
Shared hosting plans guarantee backups and free migration made to Site5 website. With shared hosting packages, you can benefit from the following unlimited resources:
- Unlimited disk space;
- Unlimited data traffic;
- Unlimited websites (except for the basic-level plan);
Reseller plans have unmetered resold accounts, DNS nameservers that can be customized, control via cPanel/WHM, and backups integrated as well.
VPS servers are fully managed and these are configured on KVM virtualization. They run on SSD drives RAID 10 storage. They have a great variety of servers to choose from, but one downside is that common features (disk space, bandwidth) do not come in unlimited amounts, whereas other providers offer unlimited resources for the servers they host.
💰 Price & Cost
They offer affordable prices for the number of features customers will find included in their products. However, VPS servers seem rather pricey when compared to similar configurations on the hosting market.
Billing is made every month, 12 months, 24 months or 36 months depending on the customers’ preferences. There is also a 45-day refund policy for their services and a 15-day money-back guarantee for their virtual private servers.
⌛ Reliability
The company offers the standard 99.9% uptime guarantee for their services.
🏢 Data Center
The company is based in Austin, Texas (USA). They host their servers in multiple locations including USA, Canada, London, Amsterdam, Paris, Bucharest or Sao Paulo.
✍️ Customer Support
In order to get in touch with tech support, customers can choose from the following support options Site5 makes available: e-mail, phone, ticket support or live chat. Customers can even write to them on Twitter or Facebook.
If you are more of a DIY customer, you can also go and access their well-extended FAQ and knowledgebase sections to find out solutions for server issues.
🔨 Control Panel
The company uses vDeck and cPanel control panels as their administration tools.
🎯 Conclusion
Site5 provides well-extended web solutions for different types of customers. However, dedicated servers are not available here. It's also the reason for this brand to take over other older EIG acquisitions (like IXWebhosting ) which were offering similar services.Their prices are affordable, even though their VPS servers can be slightly expensive. You get a 45-day money-back guarantee for shared hosting/reseller packages and a 15-day money-back guarantee for VPS servers.
With great support and standard uptime, Site5 is a great choice if you are looking for well-equipped hosting packages and high-quality guaranteed services.

😠 STAY AWAY FROM SITE5
BEWARE. This is not a scam.
Technical support is horrible, and the servers are overloaded. If you want lousy service and slow web page loading, this is the place to go.

😁 I began with Site5 last week. I had a 13 months nightmare with Green Geeks, horrible support and lots of problems and downtime...
I contacted everyone in the company and no one was of any help, even Trey Gardner, now Trey responds, but underneath the True Reviews...
I switched to EZPZ in the UK, Support was excellent but they had Server Problems and there were too many timeouts.
I went back to the Drupal recommended Hosts and I came across Hostcolor, they seemed good. Initially the set up was very helpful. Though when the server was crashing too often and with very bad support, I decided to jump ship.
I began with Site5 last week. The Company seems very well run, integrated and very professional. I am very happy so far and after using the services of 3 of their competitor's in the last 12 months, I felt compelled to give them a good review.
Support is excellent and they even have Mac Mail Support. Speed is good and everything else is as promised on there Home [read more...]

😠 Their support failed to notify me of an important change in my account which ultimately led to my site being overwritten by a month old version and they were unable to restore a backup because of a bug in their backup system.
All in all, the six different support individuals I came in contact with did nothing to solve my problems. They showed little real concern with taking any sort of ownership over my case. One mistake followed by several oversights later (all Site5's), I am now basically starting to build my site from scratch and have about 60 more hours of work ahead of me to get back to where I was last week when they hosed my site and left me to die.

😠 In the beginning, it was great. For the past few months, there are major problems,
Almost everyday there are problems. Tech support gives you the run around. Terrible. At least some of my sins are being forgiven for putting up with this company.
