The control panel is easy to use. Handling of domains/sub-domains is very easy and allows for updating of the WhoIs info as long as the domain was purchased from or transferred to FatCow. Extra domains are $20, about double buying them from direct sellers such as WhoIs or GoDaddy. File management is decent but needs some speed loading up. Setting up e-mail addresses is easy but editting is not.
The default e-mail client is AtMail but FatCow is using an extremely outdated version. FatCow also provides Horde and Squirrel mail. These were $4 a month extra when I signed up, but I think they are now free and the user can switch clients at will. None of these are what I would consider as really decent e-mail clients. They all allow for SMPT and IMAP.
There have been at least two times where the servers went down. Once was supposedly caused by a power outage. Apparently they have no backup power generators.
There is 24/7 customer support, but it is what I would characterize as average. They seem to basically read from a script. There is no bending to expedite fixing of problems.
Price is certainly among the lowest.
