"Was surprised with numerous price increases and they bill before the stated renewal dates."
2/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

It starts out easy to use and their interface is decent for implementation. They start out charging a reasonable rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

After the introductory rate, they begin to charge a lot more. Worse, is that the monthly rate increases without notification. My rate went up twice within a year for hosting.

When I was thinking of transitioning from them, they renewed my services over two weeks early. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best web hosting provider"
5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

What do you dislike about HostGator?

There is nothing I don't like about this web hosting company, it really meets my expectations and I am very satisfied to have it as my web hosting. It's Excellent! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Friendly Host for our websites. HostGator!"
4/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

Hostgator has brought a range of web services and it has made it easy for small scale developers like me to create our own space. It has helped me in providing my email domain and in building my website. Also I am not sure if it's integrated with Wordpress, but it does make a good sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

Sometimes I feel the rental prices are little much. For growing developers like me, we dont need all the services infact only basic services would do the work, but for that too we need to pay an amount which sometimes feel overpriced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very bad technical support"
0/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

Nothing, I don't like Hostgator or recommend it to any of my clients, however, one of my clients hosted his website and I needed to contact the technical support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

They are not nonprofessional at all, the first time the agent tried to solve the issue (Crawl the website with Semrush), and agreed that I would try and get back if still facing the same issue, today the other agent without checking anything told me that they did support the issues with Semrush and I can get back to Semrush, and close the chat without waiting for my reply.

"Easy transition from pervious hosts with simplified website editors/builders"
5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I personaly like the Weebly integration the best, it became very simple to build a new website and edit the current one with drag and drops and clicks of a button to publish all within Hostagtor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

I initially switched to HostGator due to its low cost, the cost to host has since increased yearly which I was unaware of until the billing cycles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless hosting experience with reliable customer support."
4/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I love HostGator's uptime; my site's always up and running. Their customer support is super helpful and always has my back.

The control panel is super easy to use, which is great for someone like me who's not super tech-savvy. They've got all the tools I need, from setting up emails to backing up my website.

Plus, their prices are reasonable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

Sometimes, HostGator can be a bit slow to load, which can be a bit annoying. Their upselling can also be a bit much; I feel like I'm constantly being pitched additional services.

The least helpful thing about HostGator is probably their knowledge base. It's got a ton of information, but it can be overwhelming and hard to find exactly what you're looking for.

The main downsides are the occasional slow load times and the aggressive upselling. Other than that, I've had a pretty good experience with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review about hostgator"
5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I felt Hosgator is one of best platform to host websites with less cost of almost less than 4$ per month. They provide free ssl certificate. Compared to other other hostings like godaddy and AWS , Hostgator is very cheap so young like me can easily afford this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

I felt they provide very less customer support. So that is one thing i felt dislike about hostgator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The platform is limited in its ability to let you do what you need to do."
1/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

The dashboard is somewhat friendly, but not 100% easy to navigate. It's better than it used to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

The customer service is one of the worst I've ever engaged with. Not only does it take a long time to get someone to respond to you, but they're interested only in getting rid of you as quickly as they can. Their listening skills are second to none. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
