Jimat Hosting Review — Budget-Friendly Range with Manageable Trade-offs

Jimat Hosting presents itself as a value provider, promising full data protection and straightforward pricing. The catalog spans Shared, WordPress, Email, VPS, and Dedicated hosting, alongside domain registration and web design services. The breadth is appealing for small businesses that want one vendor to cover most needs, though some policies and add-on costs deserve a close reading.

Shared & WordPress Hosting

Entry plans are built on SSD storage and include popular CMS support (WordPress, Drupal, Joomla) with a Softaculous installer for quick setup. Account management covers the usual essentials—FTP, DNS controls, scheduled tasks, and SSL installation—so basic site operations don’t require support intervention. Premium shared tiers run on Intel Xeon hardware with SSDs, CloudLinux isolation, and MySQL 5.7, aiming for steadier resource allocation and better security hardening. Malware protection and backups are highlighted, which is sensible for small teams that can’t babysit servers.

Email Hosting

Mail features are positioned as part of the "budget hosting" toolkit: POP/IMAP accounts, forwarders, mailing lists, autoresponders, filters, and webmail. Spam and virus filtering can be tuned, which helps with inbox quality. As with most shared environments, deliverability ultimately depends on sender behavior and shared IP reputation, so disciplined mailing practices still matter.

VPS Hosting

Two tracks are on offer. The high-performance line uses KVM virtualization on NVMe SSDs with current-generation CPUs, Linux distributions, SSH access, one dedicated IP, and free SSL. Customers can select familiar panels—cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, or Vesta—based on preference. The fully managed line adds monitoring, DDoS and malware defenses, and published network tiers (250/500/1000 Mbps), targeting teams that need hands-off operations. The OS menu includes many variants; some listed versions are dated, so choosing a supported, modern release is advisable.

Dedicated & "Smart Cloud" Servers

Dedicated machines are available in budget or fully managed form on Linux or Windows, with SoftRAID for disk resilience. The managed flavor layers on 24/7 monitoring, proactive hardening, incident response, and daily backups with a free 500 GB space per server (seven-day retention). Network claims cite up to 250 Mbps upload and 1 Gbps download, with a 1 Gbps uplink supported. Free setup, migration, and data restoration sweeten onboarding for those moving from another host.

Control Panels & Add-Ons

cPanel is the default administration experience, and they support alternatives (Plesk, DirectAdmin, Vesta). Add-ons such as CloudLinux and LiteSpeed are available for performance and isolation. Several control-panel options are billed monthly in RM, which keeps entry pricing low but can raise the total if multiple extras are selected. Prospective customers should model the end-to-end cost with their preferred stack before committing.

Security, Backups & Management

Across tiers, the marketing emphasizes malware protection, DDoS mitigation on managed VPS/dedicated, and daily backup routines for the managed dedicated line. For self-managed plans, backup tooling is present at the control-panel level so customers can capture and restore data selectively; as always, verifying retention and testing restores is recommended.

Pricing, Contracts & Refunds

Pricing is pitched as affordable with monthly or annual terms. The refund window is 15 days, shorter than the 30-day period common among major hosts. Domains are non-refundable, and refunds are processed in MYR with exchange-rate risk borne by the customer. Unless requested otherwise, refunds default to account credit; certain payment rails can be returned to source, but fees from payment processors are the customer’s responsibility. A service must be canceled before a refund is issued, and suspended or terminated accounts are ineligible. One service may not receive multiple refunds.

Uptime & SLA

There is no broad uptime commitment published for shared or dedicated hosting in the material provided. Only the NVMe VPS line carries a stated 99.95% uptime SLA. That figure is solid for virtual servers but leaves a gap for customers who expect an explicit SLA across all products.

Support & Self-Help

They advertise 24/7 availability over phone, email, tickets, WhatsApp, live chat, and social channels, backed by a knowledge base for common tasks. The mix of channels is convenient; as always, real-world experience will hinge on median response and resolution times rather than coverage alone.

Who It Suits

The platform fits cost-conscious buyers who want familiar tooling (cPanel/Plesk/DirectAdmin), manageable WordPress sites, and a path to KVM VPS or managed dedicated servers when traffic grows. Agencies can benefit from panel flexibility and the option to layer performance add-ons as needed.
