📄 Editorial Review
Melbourne IT is an Australian brand founded in 1996 (originating from the University of Melbourne; co-founded by Peter Gerrand, Tom Dangthanh, and Barbara Sutton) and forms part of the ASX-listed Webcentral Group. They present themselves as a long-time, locally operated provider focused on small and medium-sized businesses.Their catalog spans Shared Hosting (cPanel in Sydney), WordPress-optimised hosting, Managed VPS, Email hosting (including Microsoft 365 and custom business email), a website builder, domain registration, and SSL certificates. Traditional web design services are not offered anymore as of 2025.
Shared and WordPress plans emphasize ease of use (one-click apps, cPanel, WordPress Toolkit), Australian data residency, and marketed uptime targets up to 99.99% for WordPress. Managed VPS targets growing and high-traffic sites, highlighting enterprise-grade Dell hardware, daily backups, cPanel/WHM management, DDoS protection, and a 99.95% uptime target. The email portfolio ranges from very low-entry "Small" and "Work" tiers to Microsoft 365 Business, with security add-ons like spam filtering, MFA, antivirus, and MailGuard 365. Domains remain a core competency, with a long history as Australia’s first registrar and services for both SMBs and corporate portfolios.

😠 Lost my domain
This company lost my domain by not logging my payment it was immediately picked up and sold to somebody else I had absolutely no idea this was happening it took me over a year or so to get MIT to agree to a partial settlement for the loss and they're gross negligence of losing it they sent me my money but did not send it to me in American dollars, so they owed me more money. They agree to pay my replacement domain name for 5 years. But I finally got the additional money they owed me they put it into my account and then proceeded to pay themselves for renewing my domain name twice that was already supposed to be paid for. This is stealing money
When will somebody finally be able to start a class action lawsuit against this company?

😠 terrible customer support! Unresponsive and uninformed
Melbourne.it hosted my domain name for 16 years. All this time I never had the need for customer support. Recently all my DNS entries were modified and I lost complete access to email for a week. The support staff there were completely useless. Kept blaming the problem on my email hosting service. I ended up subscribing to their DNS manager and having to fix the problem myself! I immediately transferred my domain registration to my email host. Bottom line, their support is terrible.
