I use Boonex Dolphin community software with HostUpon.com. They did a free install of Dolphin software for me within the same day I purchase their plan! They have best live chat support and Chris helped me all the way. The server is perfect for Dolphin and I recommend to all my friends. | |||

I signed up on their starter plan, got a free domain and am working on building my site with the free site builder provided. So far they have been friendly as I'm pretty new to web hosting. Pretty good provider for my first experience. HostUpon also helped me setup my email addresses and a spam blocking system. So far so good! | |||

good provider, solid support, I like using their site builder and am very impressed. HostUpon are friendly and after being with like three other providers I can vouch for them. I was assisted with transferring my files and databases and my wordpress blog was moved to HostUpon very smoothly. I recommend these guys no doubt! | |||

I moved from VistaPages to HostUpon and have been VERY HAPPY! Finally good support and fast servers. I moved my dating website to HostUpon with no problems and they helped me move the database too. I wanted to leave my review because after being with other hosting companies I found one that is honest, reliable and affordable. I am currently using HostUpon's Private Hosting plan. | |||

I'm trying out HostUpon's private managed hosting for a bunch of wordpress blogs I auto feed content to. So far I am quite satisifed; The support team is helpful and speak english! Servers are fast and the account was setup within minutes. I was helped over the weekend and hope things continue this way as they have proven themselves so far. | |||

I use a script by AbleSoft called Abledating and HostUpon helped me set it up perfectly. The Abledating script has a bunch of requirements and the support team at HostUpon was very fast with the setup. I am impressed with the price and the support. | |||

Don't hesitate to use HostUpon. Their quick setup and free domain are awesome. Their support was the main reason I switched from my old host. HostUpon has a live chat support feature which was very handy when I needed to speak with someone. I believe my site has finally found a good home. | |||

I only have good things to say about this host. I'm using a reseller plan at HostUpon. The staff is always available and helpful. I live in the UK and it is very important to have a reliable provider outside of the UK as most of my clients are in Canada and the US. I like the speeds and uptime and I have yet to find a cheaper reseller hosting plan with all the features I need. | |||

I have two hosting accounts with HostUpon and consider them the best hosting provider I've ever been with! I have gotten help from their support staff, answers from the sales team and my websites never have problems. I recommend HostUpon to all my friends and will continue to host my sites their for many years to come. It is hard finding a reliable hosting company but HostUpon is the best I've come across! | |||

I'm using their reseller hosting plan and am very happy. The price is the best and the support they give you on Live Chat is amazing. Normally you have to submit a ticket with hosting companies but I get all my questions answered on their Live Chat system. The team really is great and the hosting is super reliable. I wanted to leave a review because I am very happy and wanted to share my experience with HostUpon. | |||

I did quite a bit of research before moving my web site to this host. HostUpon really do live up to their promises. Their shared hosting server is not overloaded which is the case with most hosting companies. Their pricing is very competitive, but their support level is near perfect. My tickets were answered pretty quickly by someone who really know what he is talking about. Bottom line, I recommend this web hosting service if you are running a small business or if it is critical that your web site runs fast and reliably. | |||

HostUpon saved the day for me. I had a new blog website I was trying to get on line with HostMonster. I Was on there web site trying to figure out how to get help. The only live phone number was there sales number. I finally was able to get a e-mail address I could write to. Spent to long trying to find it. They wrote back but they couldn't figure out what my problem was. A live phone would have help this situation. I canceled the 24 months I'd signed up for and asked for a refund. They told me that I had 30 days to cancel. It took me 90 days to get the site on line. I told them keep 1 year and help me out with a smaller refund. They keep telling me about the 30 days & didn't I read there disclaimer? Now I'm in good hands and plan on being here for years. The main reason for my satisfaction with HostUpon is their staff. The support was super fast and friendly even months after being with them. | |||

HostUpon helped me transfer my site from my old provider. I had hosting with GoDaddy but have since moved to HostUpon and have never looked back. These guys know what they are doing and they are pretty reputable. Great support and service. | |||

I read the reviews for HostUpon all over the net and decided to give them a try myself. They helped move two of my sites in the same day, made sure they were online and walked me through the initial setup. Their live chat feature is VERY useful. I am quite happy with HostUpon.com and will suggest them to anyone looking for hosting with real support staff! HostUpon has done a great job! thanks guys - | |||

I've been hosting our music portal website with streaming videos with HostUpon for 9 months and have been very happy. They respond to support requests in a timely fashion and their uptime is great. Much like the other reviews I can say I am glad I moved over to HostUpon and think they are a great hosting company all around! | |||

I'm using PHPMotion with HostUpon. I used to be with Cirtex but had a horrible experience with their non-existant support. When I switched to HostUpon I got a tech to help me move my video site and fully moved within 24 hours! I would recommend HostUpon.com for PHPmotion hosting or any video type hosting as they seem to be the pro's. | |||

I am not one to send messages like this often, however due to the extraordinary service your company has provided me, I am compelled to. I recently opened a community type web site, and knew little about the whole matter. I called and ordered your hosting service, and you loaded the dolphin software at no charge, and the site was running so fast I couldn't believe it. I have had a few problems, due to my ignorance, and your outstanding staff fixed them while seeming happy to do so. I managed to crash the whole site and had no idea what i had done, or had the brains to save a back-up. Your staff fixed me up, and had it back up with all the information still on the site!!!! I am just starting out, and really appreciate this service that goes beyond what anyone could expect. Al was so relaxed, helpful, and informative that I could not have asked for anyone better. I am sure to brag you guys up every chance I get. Anyways, thanks and you have a friend, long--term customer, and reference whenever you want one. feel free to give my email to anyone who wants a deservingly outstanding reference to your services.

After doing extensive research and reading this reviews for HostUpon I decided to try them out. I have been impressed with the speed and support. They answer the phone and live chat was friendly as well. I am hosting a video site with them and the upload/download speed is VERY fast. I'm happy to be with HostUpon and will recommend them to people too. | |||
