"Good US-based provider"
3.5/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

The customer service is pretty quick. Their datacenters are US-based and have fast response times. The dashboard is intuitive and easy to use. Good, reliable uptime. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

It only offers US-based datacenters. The hosting packages are often times too pricy for me. There are other hosting providers who provide more features for far less price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good hosting for beginner websites"
4/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

Dreamhost shared hosting is the best service for a beginner-level website. It is easy to use, has great customer support, and isn't too expensive. It also offers a free domain with a yearly hosting plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

The worst thing about its shared hosting is that It doesn't offer cPanel. That's why I have changed it this year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy To Use Hosting Service"
4/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

My team has been trying out many different hosting providers and finally landed on DreamHost. We liked how they easily connected with WooCommerce to set up eCommerce website stores. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

The pricing was a bit more than other providers. They could be more competitive in this space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great support, when you hit the random bugs."
4/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

Dreamhost has one of the best support I have seen in any host, they are always happy to help even when it is clearly not their issue. They definitely have a help the client above all else support mentality that I wish more companies had. They also have a great one click deployment tool for a wide range of open-source web applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

Their control panel has random bugs and issues, sometimes you can make a DNS o change without it reverting, other times if you change hosting type things get funky till you contact support. DNS propagation is buggy enough that they made a button for you to force it to fix itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cheapest WordPress Managed Hosting"
3.5/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

Dreamhost is good and the cost is also affordable compared to the other hosting recommended by WordPress itself. Also, Dreamhost's support and services are good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

There should be some improvements that can be made in terms of the user interface. For a new user, it is very difficult to get the location of some of the advanced functions in the Control Panel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Affordable Basic Hosting"
4/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

I love that DreamHost keeps it simple with their Shared Website Hosting. Since moving away from cPanel and implementing its own management tools, DreamHost has made the process of setting up and maintaining a website a simple endeavor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

If you are setting up an e-commerce website, or anything on the more robust side, I would recommend using DreamHost's Dedicated Server Hosting. The Shared Website Hosting may not produce the speeds and disk space necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good - but not perfect."
3.5/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

Dreamhost is affordable, the service is generally reliable. Speed is relatively decent, and the control panel is easy to administer. Some may prefer a cPanel style panel rather than a bespoke system, but theirs has always worked fine for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

Support CAN be good, but can also be frustrating at times. Dreamhost has the problems many big companies have, where you can end up with responses that are clearly copied and pasted. While reliability has mainly been good over the 10+ years I've used Dreamhost, I did experience a run of downtime that made me move my largest site over to a different host. I still use Dreamhost for several other sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good starter cloud options"
4/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

DreamHost Cloud is straightforward to use and catered to those that may not have as much experience with cloud services. It is also offered at an affordable price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

It can lack some of the options that are available in more mature cloud solutions so you need to examine whether it will fit all your business and technical needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unlimited Websites Under One Host"
4/5
What do you like best about DreamHost?

My favorite part about dreamhost is that for one low price you can host an unlimited amount of domains. Their pricing is never more than ten dollars a month and everything is unlimited. You can get unlimited domains with unlimited emails so I host all my websites on their services because you can't beat their pricing unless you are offering a lower quality service. I have tried other hosting sites and so far this one has been the most effective for my websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DreamHost?

A lot of the other hosting sites you can call and will be put on hold but can talk to a customer service representative. In dreamhost's case they only offer chat support, which you also have to wait for. And they are not 24 hours, they are on the east coast and hold those business hours and aren't available for chatting during non business hours and also weekends, which is terrible if you run into technical issues. They have a website that explains a lot but if you aren't too savvy you won't understand a lot of the technical jargon. So that means you have to email them and wait for support which might take a bit depending on when you email and their business hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
