Support Review
Dreamhost's biggest selling point is their customer support. Technical support Team
answers your email within 24 hours. They also have a ticket system where you can
log and track your issues. Also they have Wiki support, which is a very good
way to get answers for most of the common problems/issues. This is where most of
customers get their answers from and the wiki is well maintained by Dreamhost staff.
The wiki also has tutorials/steps for many 'how-to's. Forums are also another
great way to get your answers/problems solved. Customers visit forum frequently
to get answers and support staff directs and answers the questions.
Hosting Price Plans and features:
Price is $5.95 and the plan has
standard features provided
by hosting companies. Highlight of this plan is: 500 GB of disk space which increases weekly by 1 GB. A Bandwidth of
5 TB is given, which
increases automatically by 16 GB every week. And the plan is strongly backed
by 97 day money back guarantee.
Plan also includes 3000
e-mail accounts with spam filtering, Unlimited domain hosting,
custom DNS, databases(MySQL databases), language support(PHP4, PHP5, CGI, Perl, Python and Ruby / Ruby-On-Rails, CGI/Perl), Cron jobs, full shell access (SSH and Telnet), open source software (wordpress, Joomla, phpbb, wiki software) and
more.
Control Panel: Another highlight of this plan is the custom control panel created
by Dreamhost(Most of the Linux hosting companies
provide the standard cpanel, which
is pretty good, but this one is better!). The control panel is very user friendly
and is easy to use. Most of the hosting features can be controlled using this control
panel.
Summary
Dreamhost is a well established company and provides reliable hosting. Reasonably
priced plans along with excellent support makes it a great choice. A sure recommedation.
