I started Registering Domains for around 4 years now and I found Name.com to be the most reliable one out there. they are fast, it takes literally seconds to register your domain and minutes to update your Nameservers. I got 5 Domains Registered with them so far there ain't many complaints I have about their service so far. They also provided me with Free Whois privacy which is awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Name.com? the additional tools, I had trouble with G suite, I tried to connect my domain email service to g suit and it went terribly bad that my emails never received and i contacted them about this and took them 2 days to fix the issue. also, their 2-factor authorisation is nothing but trouble, I once got locked out of my account due to some error with 2-factor authorisation. also, the support isn't up to the mark, usually it takes them 48 hours to reply to support mails which is frustrating. Coming to their Hosting, Name.com is a terrible host for you to chose, my website was down for 3-4 days in one moth i;ve been with them also the speed and Control panel isn't upto the match with other services out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Name.com: name.com Register Domains and they do it perfectly. as for hosting, there are better ones out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Name.com solving and how is that benefiting you? Registering My domains. they do the job quick and responsibly.

Owner Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 12/12/2017 "Easy to use and straight to the point" 5/5 What do you like best about Name.com? I love that Name.com makes it easy to do what I need - buy domains. I've used other companies in the past and they bog down the checkout process with pages of "add-ons", so I like that buying a domain through Name.com is quick and easy. They also make buying SSL certificates super easy, and they are more affordable than a lot of other outlets. I'll use Name.com for all my domain and SSL needs going forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Name.com? The only thing I really disliked is their venture into hosting didn't seem to work out that great. I had a horrible time setting up emails and other things that are usually a snap with hosting companies. Not a deal breaker though. It's also a good idea not to put everything under one roof in case something goes wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Name.com: The domain name registration and the SSL Certificates work great. If you're thinking about hosting maybe check out other companies that have been in the game longer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Name.com solving and how is that benefiting you? I do a lot of research for clients about domain names that are available, what the costs are, and what types of names work best. Name.com has made the whole process really easy from start to finish. This is a technical thing that not a lot of people really understand, so it makes my job easier.

Graphic Designer Entertainment Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 8/25/2016 "Handy for quick ideas" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Name.com? Two main reasons, sometimes you just think of a great idea and a name that tags along so i quickly fly to the page and register it.
