Cost effective, decent performance, and OK support. **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2022 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** It was a cost effective , had a decent set of features, and was relatively easy to easy for the console. We used them to host an e-commerce website and it got us off the ground. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The quality of support appeared to decline and when you looked around it was hard to want to stay around for that long. Preformance was alright but again--unless you have a specific reason it seems they're just OK at best. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** They offer low cost and no nonsense hosting plans which have a decent amount of value. Backend is easy to use and if you're relatively new to hosting a website you won't get lost if you take your time. ### 2. About 12 years ago, they were maybe one of the best, today 0 company even -1, not 0 **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Newspapers | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Nothing, they killed my 2 internet sites, backup files are not working, lying to clients, 3 days their super senior specialists are not returning, when they returning, only sorry, but can't help **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Absolutely unhelpful, unprofessional technical support, they had unlimited disk space and today they told that only 30gb I have to use, killed my 2 sites don't have backups.

They do not care for the customer of for how there mistake can affect your business. **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Telecommunications | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2021 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Nothing any more, they do not care for the client or to fix an issue, total lack of responsability **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Terrible support Lies all the time. Never fix anything careless iresponsable weeks pass by and they dont get things done. they will ignore you until you take your bussiness elsewhere they do not read or can not read since they are always confused of the matter to fix **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Support is hard to get and careless of your company or of solving an issue. They will give bad excuses, lie, they do not give the features offer on there website. Very frustrating and if you care of your business and even your health (avoiding a heart attack) better stay away from this company. Support is something they do not offer, they ahve eliminated the phone and only provide chat. they will waste time and then close the chat once they realize they can not fix the matter. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** NONE. suppose to have a very user friendly cpanel but they will lock you out and tell you to upgrade when on the website it states very well the features. Terribe careless service. Not recomended when you run sales websites or integration with social media, they can cost your business to go broke ### 4. Shared Hosting **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ornelas C. | Applications development, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 30, 2021 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Choice of service plans, free domain and unmetered transfer at a low cost. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** System inactivity in a certain time, technical support. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** Host service, communication applications and security by free domain. ### 5. Fairly good hosting for a great price. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2021 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The price. They have more options, but they just have very affordable Wordpress hosting for a basic site. Free domains are a plus too. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The cheapness shows sometimes. There are a few issues and downtime you probably wouldn't see with other hosting. You really do get what you pay for. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** I mainly just use it for cheap WordPress hosting and email. Do you posting is fairly good for what you are paying. ### 6. Do Not set up Auto pay IF you use Arvixe at all **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bob M. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 18, 2021 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** It seemed to work at first but once they changed servers during an “Upgrade” configurations were never the same and essentially have had no email capabilities the last 3 years. Yes Years. If you have tried to contact them for support to actually correct something I believe you would understand why 3 years is correct **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Telephone contact is NOT and option and they bet on attrition to stop you from getting support **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Never place a credit card for auto renewal on their server. You will Never be able to get it stopped for billing. I would recommend you actually do not pay by anything except a check or anything that cannot be reused for a renewal sir chances are you will regret it. I cannot imagine how a company can hide without any type of phone contact available. They make it so you give up in frustration when trying to seek support for anything. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** Have been trying to get autopay stopped for 3 years. Spent another hour today on chat (the Only form of support available) to no avail. Thuringia to prove identity they refuse to accept a drivers license as proof because the name Robert and Bob they don’t believe to be the same person ### 7. Arvixe was an outstanding company before being purchased, and is just now on their way back up. **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chris J. | Member, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2020 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Arvixe was very afordable and the service was excellent, especially the support. They still are affordable despite rising prices, and also offer a pretty large amount of services under their plans. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Their support is still suspect to me, but improving. When they were purchased by their parent company (I believe they still own them) support was awful. I literally went through support issue well over a month with no response. They had changed from call techs to chat only. The chat techs have always been courteous but to do anything above the most basic issues, the tickey would have to be escalated to the next level with very little response back on updates. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** As stated before, Arvixe provided a solid offering for the price, then and now. But due to all the issues I have had with them over the years I have had to move almost all of my sites over from their servers. ### 8. Good company with great at cost Domain Names **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tim D. | Network Administrator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2019 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Great prices compared to many other companies that has a solid support staff. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The time that it takes to get to a support tech on text chat. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Know what you wish to do with the hosting, domains and other. Many dive into web hosting or website design without knowing the true needs of what it entails. Arvixe is great for the pricing and usability if able to work with text chat then it is right for you. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** Web hosting, domain name cost and reseller ability. ### 9. Poor Customer Service & Lack of Security **Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 27, 2018 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** I liked the price when I first started with Arvix. They came to my web dev school and provided a demo, then had excellent student discounts for the first year. This was an excellent marketing tactic to get me started on Arvix. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Now that I have been using Arvix for a few years and have built multiple websites with their hosting services, I find their customer service to be very poor and their security measures to also be lacking. I have gotten had client websites get hacked multiple times and Arvix was not helpful at all during these times. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** - offer better customer support - offer greater security measures for when clients are hacked - offer more benefits for price - go back to previous level of customer support as shown a few years ago **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** They provided great student discounts in the beginning. ### 10. better uptime, with value of money **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2018 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The uptime and server performance is good. E-mail delivery is quite good as they implemented SPAM dealing mechanism. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Their first line support is just OK. Many matters need more professional capability for that they transfer the issue to seniors via ticket and that takes days to resolve. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Arvixe is customer focused hosting service provider. I am their customer since many years and saw that they try to be better from yesterday. During my tenure, their CEO Mr. Arvand, left the company. After that I feel that support goes worse. But now they again improve their services. The hardware upgrades was performed during my tenure but the downtime is very minimal during this activity. I should recommend the hosting services from Arvixe. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** Web hosting, MS SQL database (on Windows), and MySQL database (On Linux) server giving me capacity to go online with my company's website and its web applications. ### 11.

Good service for what I pay **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Graphic Design | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2016 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The price is the feature that i like the most, because I can have several websites hosted for the cheapest price I know until now. Also it uses cpanel which I have alredy used at some other stage of my life, so it was quite easy to get used to it. The fact that you can park several domains is the best feature. I have also applied a promotional code so the final price is some cents cheaper than the actual price. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** At first I had a little issue with the domain name that they offered for free, but it was all good afterwards. At the end, it was free right? After some time dealing with the online chat they were able to solve the problem. I know a little about the "hosting world" but I guess that for people that is new to this, it might be a little tricky to solve it. At that time I thought about just quitting and get another provider, but then it was solved and it was good. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** If you need to host several websites that do not have a lot of traffic, then it might be a very good option for you. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use the hosting for my website and some others, so it solves my hosting requirements. The main benefits is that that the price / quality balance is good! ### 22. Arvixe's quality has gone down after acquisition **Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2016 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Ease of use, both the cpanel options and domain purchases are straightforward. The pricing is good as well, but keep in mind you get what you pay for. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Domains no longer come with whois protection, it's an additional $10 to get it. Sites lag a bit, evidence of shared hosting that is cheap. Support can be slower than it used to be. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** For the price, it's a decent offering, but after my current contract is up, I will probably look elsewhere. Speeds, support, and value are not what they used to be. Support can take awhile to get, and quality is down as well. Speeds are far slower than they used to be. Whois privacy protection has now been separated from domain registration fees, so it's more expensive now. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm using arvixe to host my business and personal sites. It's easy to set up and cpanel is invaluable for ease of use. ### 23. Solid but there are better hosting options **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chris B. | Co-Founder, Leisure, Travel & Tourism, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 02, 2016 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Arvixe provides a lower cost hosting option with everything necessary to build a working website. They offer Softalicious one click installation of many of the most popular apps and frameworks including Wordpress, Joomla, and phpBB. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Reliability has been an issue for me and support was not as responsive as I'd have liked considering the effect downtime can have on an online presence. Once traffic increases, reliability can be an issue and support leaves something to be desired. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Consider the cost of the hosting with the reliability and need for amazing support. There are other low cost web hosts that offer much better support. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use arvixe to host a number of sites. They offer a free domain with the purchase of a hosting plan and their lower cost options are good for small or newer businesses looking to build a first web presence. ### 24. Used to be great - now horrible **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2016 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** The Website control panel is a very useful tool. It is very easy to manage sites and settings. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** There is absolutely no support now. Recently, they let one of my SSL's lapse. I put in a support ticket with several reminders, and somebody replied a week later saying they need to charge me more money for my SSL due to a billing error. I never got an invoice. I moved my site to Azure. There are many complaints like this. Apparently most of their support staff was fired and outsourced. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Please find another alternative. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** My clients needed affordable, reliable ASP.NET web hosting. To this end, Arvixe is inexpensive. ### 25. Affordable but crowded **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lawrence S. | Senior Software Engineer, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2016 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** They offered a lot of features and the price is reasonable, one of the most affordable shared hosting environments for Windows that I have came across! **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** You get what you pay for! The shared hosting environments are crowded and over-utilized, it is fine if you are just using it for a personal website and not for business. **Recommendations to others considering Arvixe Web Hosting:** Look for promo codes to reduce the cost and don't sign up for a long term hosting contract yet, start with 1 month to get a feel as to their level of service. ### 26. Great host (Hosted my website for 3 years) **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 04, 2016 **What do you like best about Arvixe Web Hosting?** Arvixe is fast and strong. It's update time is very quick and they keep your site secure. They almost always have an offer to discount your first year's hosting which makes it easy to get started. **What do you dislike about Arvixe Web Hosting?** I tend to get a lot of extra emails I don't really need from them, but it's been significantly reduced in the past 6 months. **What problems is Arvixe Web Hosting solving and how is that benefiting you?** I host my own professional website. - Arvixe is a cheap AND good services - Very quick and easy to update - Has advanced options for those who need it ## Arvixe Web Hosting Discussions - [What are the features of web hosting?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/arvixe-web-hosting-what-are-the-features-of-web-hosting) - 1 comment - [View Arvixe Web Hosting pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/arvixe-web-hosting/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-12+14%3A24%3A15+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=f91003cc-ab88-4452-b6cf-aa9777511ff4&secure%5Btoken%5D=eefdafe014791d2413cec50d545608141a7b19924f7de5c4994dc18ef3d2ed7f&format=llm_user) ## Arvixe Web Hosting Features **Agentic AI - Virtual Private Servers (VPS)** - Autonomous Task Execution - Adaptive Learning - Decision Making **Hosting Management** - Storage Limits - Bandwidth Allowance - Email Hosting - Control Panel Integration - CMS Support - Web Framework Support - E-Commerce Integration - File Management - Database Support - Security Tools ## Top Arvixe Web Hosting Alternatives - [Plesk](https://www.g2.com/products/plesk/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (247 reviews) - [DigitalOcean](https://www.g2.com/products/digitalocean/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (738 reviews) - [Hostwinds](https://www.g2.com/products/hostwinds/reviews) - 4.9/5.0 (419 reviews)
