Is versehost.com any good?

Their pricing looks really nice and I was wondering how the support is etc. Anyone with them?

Found it in "MCHost facr please" ;)

Yes, that's what I was thinking... and 24x7 support.
But when I see the forum, maybe not that active, heh? ;)

Hello,

Our parent company (IBS INC.) has been open for over 12 years and has serviced customers such as AT&T and Merill-Lynch. We aren't one of those hosts that offer super-low prices and then dies a week later.

Also, we offer 24/7 tech support via our helpdesk for most matters (this doesn't work, e-mail stopped, CGI won't work, etc.). The forums are not very active, and I understand why you may be suspicious.

We host some of the category leaders in Yahoo! (won't mention names) that have over 20K hits per day and are satisfied. They are under our standard hosting packages, no special deals, etc.

I hope you didn't mind me posting a couple facts to this thread. I thought it would be appropriate to answer some questions. If you have any questions, please e-mail me.

Regards,
David

Wow, real answer.

How many people are at tech support?

Thanks!:)

Hello,

We have 11 part-time support techs. There are always 2-3 on-duty to answer trouble tickets.

David

One more question. ;)

Did you guys just started this hosting service?
(by looking at domain registeration info)
Is this why the forum isn't too active yet?

Thanks.

The brand name VerseHost was only recently put in to use. We were providing web hosting services as a service through other companies (we used to have servers in Hurricane Electric and have companies resell this) and as a side service to IBS INC. customers in the local area.

This is one of the reasons why the forums are pretty silent.

Our services have been running for much longer than the domain registration, and we are experienced and comfortable with running it.

I'm a reseller for Versehost and so far they are proving to be an excellent company for me. Great support, top specs and friendly staff! Go for it guys ;)
