I have done a search for Excel Web Host and I seem to only find hosting offers, no reviews. Are they a good company? I am on a trial with them.

Thanks!

If you are on trial......well......how are they? Do they respond to requests? Is what they are giving you what they expected?

I guess what you are looking for is either some kind of praise or some kind of horror story.

All I can say is that if they were confident enough to give you a trial, you should have the confidence in yourself to determine if their service will suit your needs.

Hope This Helped,

Robert

If you still haven't made up your mind after the trial period, then only pay on a monthly basis. That way you don't loose that much if they suddenly don't work for you anymore.

And don't forget the backups!

I agree. Most horror stories happened because of yearly payment and no backup.

The other suggestion I would say is to test out support. See what their response time is and the type of answers you get. Even if it's a question to something you already know. You can tell a lot in the type of response you get. Either they'll blow you off, or have an poor answer. Or you'll be quite pleased and see that they have knowledge people/person that really want to see you satisfied.
Most problems can be spotted during the first couple of months. So like Rept. Feline, I would suggest start out paying month to month.
