What host provider scores 10/10 against all others?
We've been with Hostgator for the last 10 years and it's felt a long longer tbh but following several headaches with customer support we decided enough was enough. They've gone the same direction as ebay and paypal and farmed out their tech-support to those who can barely string a sentence together never mind offer any semblance of support.
So rather than endure anymore pain for 2018 we decided to spend a few hours on this forum browsing the best of what seemed to be on offer and picked out BigScoots.com as a potential new host. Good heaven's am I glad we did so. They are quite incredible, Scott, Justin, Xavier, just haven't let up since we decided to run a test site with them and if this was going to be their standard going forward I can only say don't look anywhere else people. You're simply not going to get this level of support anywhere. PERIOD! And if anyone thinks this is puff-editorial just PM me. I'm a registered N.U.J. journalist and btw they didn't know that when I opened the account. But they do now and I take my Linux hat off to them.Last edited by Editorialz; 01-14-2018 at 12:23 PM.

Oops
Scott and Chris, I'm going to have to figure out a way to add our website to my profile without spamming the bejeezuz out of everyone. It seems I need to make at least 3 more posts, which, in the grand scheme of things, shouldn't be too difficult, but here's counting

haha, well I wouldn't worry too much about that. But, alternatively, there is a little "caution" looking icon at the bottom left corner of your original post, that when clicked will bring you to a page where you can enter a message to the mods -- there you can supply your website you are hosting with us thereby legitimizing your review. They like websites verified in this way for most reviews by low post count users (which is understandable of course).

No, you're quite right to call me out on that, we haven't experienced every provider, but what we did do, was our research. There's an old saying where I come from; "once bitten, twice shy" and when I say we spent hours looking at potential hosts, I mean hours. Other staff members did the same. Maybe not to the level that I did, but you can be sure it was a comprehensive analysis because there was too much at stake. We could find nothing on bigscoots.com. Or at least nothing worth mentioning but I certainly will stay posted on this because there's always Murphy's Law.

Perfectly normal:
@Editorialz join date: Jan 2018 and sent a message yesterday at 12:15 on how great Bigscoot is (with a clickbait subject).
And BigScoots-Scott corporate member sent 3 sentences in reply 8 minutes later.
There's nothing suspicious here... oh wait

Ah, I remember this many years ago when we were hunting for colo and signed up with one provider that we didn't see any bad reviews. It is really good and we kept on praising them then we decided to expand on another DC and we were more than amazed and learned that the new provider is better than our first one :-)
But, I am sure you are probably just excited what you got from the service and it is good. Enjoy your new provider!

As a corporate member we pay for the privilege of knowing the exact second someone posts with our name included anywhere in the content. To be frank, the only thing this validates is that we're very fast at replying to emails - which could perhaps be the reason why we are one of very few hosting companies over the years who have been able to convert new individuals to the forum for the express purpose of reviewing our services.
If you search our history you'll find you certainly aren't the first to make this claim, however its been just over 8 years now with a lot of the same, so its getting a bit old█ BigScoots.com - 98% of Clients Stay With Us Forever

Just shows how fast they are. If they are that fast to respond to a forum post then imagine how quickly they will get to your support request!
