Sales is EXTREMELY slow, but I got around that by going straight to Martin / atchooo on WHT to get the answers I needed.
They seem like a good bunch of guys, and I can't wait to place my hardware there (whenever my assigned sales rep ever gets back to me  )

Why are you choosing to move away from Softlayer? There regarded as one of the best providers available on the web for dedicated servers.

I've been with iweb for the last 2 years and I am pretty satisfied. I cannot speak for the shared hosting as I have a dedi + colo. It is a solid company which is growing everyday.

Sales have been overloaded since last march when we launched our new products and web site. Since then we made a lot of changes to the organization, we added a lot of staff and restructured the departments. The situation with sales should be a lot better now especially since the account managers (which are involved for upgrades and sales issues for current customers) have recently cleared their entire backlogs (that at a time was of more than 500 tickets).
We also started modifying our sales processes, adding new anti-fraud systems and easing the process for customers. Some things still need to be improved especially with our internal processes to speed up things but we are working on it and I think overall the whole situation with sales is getting better. Sales have definitely been the biggest source of complaints. When it comes to support, I think overall our dedicated server support is good.
Emergencies are handled immediately 24/7 and we always provide customers with a lot of support even if servers are unmanaged. That said, we are also working on enhancing support in many ways. I hope this gives everyone a good update !
