📄 Editorial Review
IPower was a long-running U.S. hosting brand founded in 2001, and for many years it targeted small businesses as well as customers who wanted a broad, all-in-one hosting provider. The company built its name around beginner-friendly web services, a large bundled feature set, and an eco-friendly business image. Over time, however, the brand stopped functioning as a standalone hosting company. After becoming part of a larger consolidation wave in hosting, IPower was absorbed into the Endurance group in 2007, and by April 2026 the old ipower.com address no longer operated as an independent storefront, instead redirecting into the Network Solutions environment. In practical terms, the brand had already become a legacy name rather than an active separate provider.During its stronger years, IPower covered a wide range of products. The catalog included Shared Hosting, WordPress Hosting, VPS Hosting, Dedicated Servers, Domain Registration, Email Hosting, SSL Certificates, E-Commerce Services, and Marketing Services. That made the company attractive to customers who wanted hosting, domains, email, and business add-ons under one account. It was not the most developer-oriented provider on the market, but it worked well for businesses that preferred convenience and bundled extras over deep technical flexibility.
The VPS line was one of the more useful parts of the portfolio. There were three VPS plans, and they typically included features such as a free domain, unlimited domains and subdomains, MySQL databases, FTP accounts, and pre-installed scripts. The Dedicated Server range also offered three plans, with a similar all-in-one style and several included tools, while the dedicated packages added multiple IP addresses, usually in the 3 to 5 IP range depending on the plan. IPower also had Reseller Hosting for both Linux and Windows, which widened the appeal for agencies and smaller hosting resellers. The weaker side was that some bundled tools did not always remain free for the long term, and certain extras turned into paid renewals after the initial period.

😞 Windows html site being changed to php
I create websites. All of a sudden my longtime favorite host ipower is not the same anymore. All my clients & my 2 sites are being changed without my permission from .html to .php ! They are seriously pushing php. Chat only no help. I am leaving ipower...sad & taking my clients with me.

😠 Run away and fast
I had been customer of iPower for many years. Suddenly, they started billing accounts I did not want renewed and changed the status in the control panel from manual to automatic was reset. Customer support was horrible. Not only were they rude, but heaven forbid you ask for a supervisor. These guys were USELESS! iPower's motto should be "It is always the customers fault...it is never us".
I am taking away each account from them as they expire.
I hate this company so much. I want to see them fail for treating me so poorly as a customer. I hate them in the strongest way possible. I used to refer people to them years ago. Now, I tell my customers to RUN from them.

😠 One domain, which had had hosting canceled in '07, was still being charged annually for hosting. Finding out that the front office had been paying the bill, I called ipower. The client will get about $45 back from the 2009 renewal, but that's it as ipower says they "have no record of the cancellation," and apparently no records at all about customer activity.
A 2nd domain's information apparently just vanished; ipower could not find it, even though I got to spell it for them phonetically 5 times. With no renewals or emails, it has fallen into Redemption Period, what a headache. HOURS on the phone, ipower says contact TucowsInc, ipower is not the Registrant, TucowsInc say contact ipower, ipower is the Registrant; nobody can do anything unless they get $160.
A couple other domains cannot have the name server information modified because ipower appears to be unable to supply me with the proper information to access opensrs. What boggles me is when did the access info get changed, and who changed it?
I do not recommend ipower.
