View Full Version : Need opinions on HostNexus (Windows Reseller)
Anomium 10-10-2004, 06:57 PM Hello,
I don't want to put all eggs into one basket, so I am looking for second Windows reseller package. After some reasearch I found HostNexus. They offer some very nice features (especially MSSQL) for a quite reasonable price. And I am impressed by the amount of features offered by Plesk.
There are some opinions on HostNexus on these forums. Most of them are very positive, but they are based only on experience with Linux hosting.
So anyone using Windows at HostNexus?
Can I go wrong with them?
Well, my primary target is "uptime" and the secondary target is called "support".
Thank you in advance!
PogiWeb 10-11-2004, 12:04 AM I havent heard to much about their windows reseller accounts but most likely their positive presence is felt all threw their hosting packages.
freak 10-11-2004, 01:48 AM I believe they have a forum, you might want to try there...

Yes, they have a very busy forum with a lot of useful information. Unfortunately, I won't find the answer there. ;)
Lubby 10-11-2004, 11:44 AM I know they are an active participant here at WHT and are very respected. I think hostnexus would be a good choice.
Aerovive 10-13-2004, 02:20 AM I've been hosted by them before....they have great support, an awesome community and they are all around nice people to work with!

It's less than a month that I'm with HostNexus!
I'm hosting 25 domains on their Proton server (Win2003).
Server hasn't any downtime till now and their support is good.

jpaul 10-17-2004, 02:05 PM I am with HN for over 2 years now. Very good support (via email/chat). Nice and professional people. My personal experience has been excellent. Server performance no issues. I have not ever used Windows Hosting.
On other side, there were a few "frequent" server moves, most likely due to growth in their business.
bcrooker 10-17-2004, 08:34 PM I have been with HN for 6 months now using their Linux resellers account and have been quite pleased with their support. Their open forums are very nice as well and are quite active.
I also signed up for their Windows resellers account last month and have been having some fun playing around with the new features.
jolo2 10-17-2004, 10:55 PM I just signed up with them yesterday! I hope I made the right choice. I'll be back next time for testimonials.
NexDog 10-18-2004, 03:13 AM Thanks to all for your kind words. :)
Windows is a new venture for us but it has actually taken off like a rocket due to WHT and some nifty SEO work. We are bring our third Windows server online tomorrow which is pretty good as we only launched the service in late August. Plesk 7 for Windows definitely has a few quirks but it's a great control panel and we have invested heavily in all the addons they provide. I think it will emerge as a real competitor to Helm especially as Plesk has seen a huge spurt in development since Sw-Soft took over.
jpaul - must be almost 3 years now! I remember those early days when we were trying to figure out qmail piping.
bcrooker - great to see you at WHT. I haven't really had much time to post on WHT like I used to. The last 3-4 months at HN have been completely amazing. Even more so due to the whole Paysystems fiasco which didn't hold us back from expanding by about 15 servers. :)
BitOMagic 10-18-2004, 03:17 AM Congratulations to NextDog for the excellent work at HostNexus. I have to say that he has one hell of an operation around there.
If you don't mind pass me your SEO contact. LOL...

Great to see everyone getting along with HostNexus. I havn't had any experience with them in any kind of hosting, but the way it seems that they are well respected and FRIENDLY!!!
Great ;)

Hey Dan. :)
All work and no play, old boy. First the Paysystems nightmare had me getting my hands dirty in Accounts to help out and get things rolling quicker. Then the launch of Windows and ColdFusion - more servers and more technology to learn. Plus an increase in new signups has me busy in Sales and new client support. Also added about 8-9 managed boxes in the last 3 months.
And here's me at 2.30am waiting on a new Windows server with a huge backlog of orders from today waiting to be setup. There's only so much coffee I can drink. :)
karl472001 10-20-2004, 05:29 PM I am also planning to purchase windows hosting from HostNexus soon.
Let me know how it goes. :)
superprogram 10-21-2004, 08:59 AM Nexdog, do you support paypal payments?
NexDog 10-21-2004, 09:38 AM Yep, it's all coded into the site. After the initial order form, the next page gives you the option of paying via CC or PayPal. :)
superprogram 10-21-2004, 09:58 AM Thanks I will sign up for windows hosting now :)
NexDog 10-21-2004, 10:03 AM Thank you very much. I look forward to having you aboard at HN. :)
Anomium 10-22-2004, 03:21 AM I have also signed up for the shared Windows hosting at HN. If everything goes well, I will move to reseller account.
And the Plesk 7 is more powerful than I expected.
Thank you for your opinions. They were very helpful.
NexDog 10-22-2004, 05:03 AM Thanks Anomium. Don't hesitate to contact us if you require assistance. :)
