"Quality hosting provider. Been using for 10 years, great uptime."
4.5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I find them affordable and reliable. Hostgator has been consistent with their uptime and is attentive to support issues. I have yet to have any notable issues with their hosting in over 10 years of using them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

The only issue I've experienced is they block traffic for users using certain FireFox browsers, resulting in an error when accessing Hostgator hosted websites. I have yet to find a resolution to this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A site which take-care my website related needs."
3.5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

Hostgator is a platform that gives me many options to choose from in different web hosting services and provides a wide range of domains.

What is best about Hostgator is their plans for domains and web hosting they start from the low end to go up to the maximum level for big companies as per the requirements. As a single user, i can easily manage my hosting and relate all the needs. Their customer service is the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

As i know HostGator for a few years, they are lacking in terms of plans and growth. They are also lacking in terms of service I feel other companies' servers are faster then Hostgator. My pages sometimes do not index fast in google. My bounce rate is also going up because of the speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not the best, but worth a shot for small businesses"
3/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I don't know if that's a good or bad thing, but HostGator is a decent web hosting provider. Their customer service is excellent and their prices are reasonable. I had some issues with their performance in the past, but they were always able to fix them quickly. Overall, HostGator is a good choice for web hosting, but I wouldn't recommend it for the best performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

Their server performance is really poor on GTMetrix with TTFB over 9 seconds. This is surprising, given their overall rating on the site. Considering shared hosting, I've seen worse. But when I'm paying, I can get a Decent cloud VPS on AWS or GCP with a lot less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Hostgator is Really Perfect Host"
5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I have been using hostgator since 2014, and my website works perfectly on Hostgator. Hostgator has the best budget for hosting, and they guys give the best support for WordPress-based websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

Hostgator is perfect hosting, but they did not provide excellent support of Magento 2. They said they have only experts for WordPress-based websites. But they have to improve for another CMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Hosting for Low Traffic Sites"
4/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

Basic cPanel access and relatively easy interface to manage websites. They had a great intro price for a three year contract. We ran a few low level traffic sites on this server and never had any issues with downage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

They are owned by the same company who owns Bluehost who has had more issues over the years. They always offer a low intro pricepoint and then the price jumps considerably after renewal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"If you are looking for a platform to do tests, it's fine."
3/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

It allows me to install unlimited pages and I love this because I am a trainer and I can create websites for all the students in the course.

Additionally, it allows me to install almost any software beyond WordPress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

It has many outages and is not reliable for your main website. I use it as a hosting for testing and secondary websites, but for an important website, I would not use HostGator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"as good as expected"
4.5/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

It is really hard to find a hosting company that can host my website and transfer, and backup previously hosted websites, thanks to Hostgator for providing me with everything I required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

It sometimes happens that CSR is not responsive. It hurts especially when you are in a situation where everything is at stake. This should be taken care of professionally and as early as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HostGator Cloud hosting sales customer support review"
3/5
What do you like best about HostGator?

I liked the HostGator review by the people so that is why I have decided to purchase a one-year subscription. But I was made a fool by the sales team of HostGator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HostGator?

The thing which I don't like is that the sales team made a fake promise to me when asked before purchasing they said yes you would be getting your server location in the USA and after-sales support would be from the USA only but after making the purchase they have provided Indian support to me which I did not like.
