Awesome! Awesome - this has been the fastest and smoothest setup, including the DNS,
the DSN, the FTP and even the nameserver transfer - I have 15 years
ColdFusion experience so let me tell you I have seen a lot - this was
excellent!

Hostek is the best web host I have ever worked with, by far! Knowledgeable, fast support, and great up-time! I won't go with anyone else!

Im with Hostek from 2001 and always had a excellent service and fast. The support team is very good, and think that in future Hostek will be still better. From Spain (well Catalonia) i always recommend Hostek

I love Hostek for the pricing, control panel utilities, and extra applications e.g. blog. I am not completely satisfied with the user-support on ColdFusion though. They usually response within a couple of hours (that is good), but the answer isn't necessarily helpful (I suspect the support doesn't really read the question.) However, one particular staff with initial B.A is above the rest in solving the problems I encounter. Of course, this is only my personal opinion.

Needed to temporarily setup a client site with Hostek. The setup process was easy. Their helm control panel allows you to do everything. I also had some tech support questions that were expertly answered within hours.

I have been with Hostek since February 2007 and I have been very pleased with your service. Your support is the best I have ever had, the setup is great, and the features are the best! Plus, all the websites I have hosted have ran FAST and if ever there was a problem you fixed it quick. Speaking of which, I had not had to email support for over a year now! That just goes to show how smooth everything has been running on my client websites. Thank you for providing such a wonderful service! Jon Wallen Author of CF Shopkart

Amazing Best Coldfusion Hosting! Period. For all of you harden Coldfusion developers out there stop searching: Hostek has it all! A simple, not "bloated", straight forward, amazingly intuitive control panel, a lightning fast tech support team and yes, believe it or not - those Coldfusion web services that work! You can connect to the outside world including your home computer (running Railo, Blue Dragon, etc...) so you can host those ginormous data bases at home. I've been looking for a CF web services friendly hosting company and tried pretty much every major one out there - none of them worked (when it came to CF web services). So stop wasting your time and go Hostek! If you go with their CF Pro plan and host additional domains (under Windows for example) they are not sub-directories in your master account but full blown hosting accounts in their own rights! Their CF pages loads faster than any of the other companies that I've been with. And no other CF hosting company out there can beat their prices and features. They give you latest CF 9 (as of early 2012) tons of space, traffic and databases. What else or more can you wish for? Need proof I'm right? Check my web based reporting systems at AnyStats.com - some or them are backed by databases counting millions of records (and 20 to 30 data points) - and see how fast they load. Where have I been all these years? Keep up the good work Hostek!

Hostek is hands-down the best hosting service Hostek is hands-down the best hosting service I've ever worked with. No matter what time of the day, or what my issues are, Hostek has been RIGHT THERE to solve them for me.

These guys are great. They came highly recommended by a super team of ecommerce shopping cart designers/programmers. I was using a LARGE outfit to host my websites and had some problems with the cart software and my providers. I switched to Hostek and have been extremely pleased ever since. Thanks guys. Been here now for about 2 years and remember m y server being down for about 5 or 10 minutes, 1 TIME! Not a bad record if you ask me. I now have 10 websites with them. Thanks again!

I've been in the computer business since 1981. I project managed Intels
foray into web hosting. Your support turnaround, lack of really dumb
questions in response to tickets and so on, well you're all just a class act
and it's what all your competitors ought to be aiming for. Been with you a
year or so now and every time we've needed assistance I've got a response
before my next birthday that dealt with my issue, first time, every time. (Morris F. Jun 13, 2010)
Hey you guys are awesome. Thank you so much Brian, just amazing how one misplaced line of code can hold a whole person up. Needless to say I am cheesing right now. Thanks for taking the "Time" and "Wanting" to find the problem and resolve it, Your findings and fixing the problems for me has made me respectful to you and your team and please let them know that. I am very happy I came on board because no other company would really help me. It really wasn't hard to fix and I have learned something. You didn't let me give up and I would recommend others to your site. (Jesse C. Jul 4, 2008)
I love you guys! I've tried many web hosts over the years and you guys are in a league of your own. The support is phenomenal. I ALWAYS get a ridiculously quick response to absolutely any questions or concerns I have (which are rare). Your support staff is always helpful and will go above and beyond without a hint of aggravation. Thank you for your fantastic service and for offering your hosting plans at incredibly affordable prices. Thank you so much! (Staci C. Sep 11, 2008)
Hosting has been reliable and when there are issues, there's always been fast response. Your service is hard to beat! Over the past year I registered 3 new sites and have not been dissappointed! I'm notified in person via email AND phone call when domains are up for renewal which is greatly appreciated!! Service is exceptional and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for hosting. The monthly hosting fee is cheap; the service is priceless! (Brian B. Oct 5, 2008)
I must say, I have been developing sites since 1996 and I have been through
ALOT of web hosts in that time. And, after only 1 day with you, I can
already see your staff not only offers intelligent, prompt service, you
actually care and take action.... wow, just wow... Every positive word in your testimonials is true. Thanks so much.
(Anthony Nov 12, 2007)
Wow, you guys just saved my life! I can't even imagine how long it would
have taken me to setup that database again. Your support, and your services
all around, are by far the best! Add to that you upgraded to ColdFusion 8 almost
instantly, and I can't think of anything you don't offer that I could ever
need! Keep up the good work. (Al R. Nov 8, 2007)
I've said it before, I'm saying it again. You guys are the best! I've dealt with other hosting companies so I can compare. Your tech support is prompt, courteous, and thorough.
(Tom Romeo Sept 28, 2007)
[I] was just reading your testimonial page, and based on our experience over
the past few months as we moved almost all of our web sites over to you
(more coming soon), most of those statements were truly "Under stated"
rather than exaggerations. We've had ZERO complaints about your service, and hundreds of reasons to
complement you. Your name is definitely on our Christmas list of good vendors.
(Lee Besing July 11, 2007)
I run a web development company and deal with many web hosts
and you are by far the best I've used. The service itself is super,
but what sets you apart is the support team. I can't say enough
about them. They are professional, responsive and knowledgeable--this
is what makes the difference between web hosting and good web hosting.
(P.F.)
I have never had such great and fast support from any other service provider! Each time I placed a support
ticket, it was resolved in a flash! I am actively advertising your server to
every one I talk to who is looking for a hosting service! (Pat D.)
You have already in 1 week outdone any other hosting company I've
ever used. Companies today use the word "solutions" as a marketing tool and through
the years the meaning has been forgotten. You guys are definitely showing the
true meaning of it. I just want others to know that there is still a company with values.
(J.M.)
I would like to tell you that I have been with 7 hosting companies and
this one is by far the greatest. When our site gets big, we will definately remember
you. I would also like to show my gratitude by putting on a banner at no charge
for your company. I own 7 other sites and plan to move each of them to you.
(J.M.)
My webmaster says that you guys are the most considerate, polite, and helpful people he has
ever worked with. Hats off to you!
(P.M.)
You guys never cease to amaze me at how great your customer service is. Keep up the good work,
this is what a hosting company SHOULD be!
(J.K.)
So far your service has showed by far the best tech support of the 3 hosting companies I've tried.
I'm really happy with it. (R.K.)
You all are fast! One more reason that I will refer all my friends to you!!! (D.M.)
The support I receive from you guys is
excellent and I would recomend you to everyone. Your service does not
reflect your monthly fees. I have never received the same service and
promptness from other web hosts at twice the cost. (J.)
I've referred people to you. I have never been more confident in
referring anyone to any other service. (J.M.)
Thanks for the follow-up to check back with me. I work as a help desk engineer... and this is the kind of support every support orginization should strive for. This is the kind of support that will make me keep my site with you for years to come. (J.D.)
Once again i am soooooo happy with the fast service and great response time your company has. I am so glad I was lucky enough to choose a webhost that is so committed to their customers. It's definately a nice thing to have a friend on the web. thanks again for everything and keep up the good work! you guys are the best! (C.M.)
This is the first time I have set up a site that wasn't hosted
by Geocities... AND WHAT A DIFFERENCE!. My site went up correctly, the first
time. Your e-mail responses are lightning fast and you always answer my
question right the first time. You have a customer for life!
(W.C.)
You guys are so fast! I am going to recomend you to everyone I meet that needs a host, you rule!
(D.M.)
Thanks for the swift and nice reply. Best support I have ever encountered. With my previous host, I
was used to having to sometimes wait days to get questions answered and problems resolved. This is wonderful.
(T.C.)
I want to let you know that I have found your support staff to be
very helpful during the setup of this site. I've been very impressed with
your response times and quality of information.
I've worked with many so-called "support staffs" over the last 5 years and
have been (to be kind) not impressed with nearly all of them. Your effort to
truly provide service is very appreciated - I wish the rest of the ISPs were
half as helpful as you and your staff has been (M.)
I've been very impressed with the services you have
provided me with so far. As far as I know, my e-mail or web hosting has not
gone down at all since I signed up. I want to commend you on the job you
all are doing and thank you for running a first-rate hosting service. (W.W.)
Thank you so much for always returning my emails promptly.
I have used 3 different ISP's for my website and never have I had such
prompt service to emails. (A.M.)
Your company's customer service and support is 100 times better than
my last hosting company. You guys Rock! Thanks. (John)
I can't believe it... I am still in shock it started about 2 days ago I needed a host.
I looked around and nearly signed up to WiredHosting then I found your site in a search, all the
features you had made me think it was a load a bull so I clicked on the online chat and chatted with a
very nice guy. I took about 30 Minutes of his time but he explained it all and I was happy to sign up.
I read all the other peoples responses to your site and thought it might just be the good sections cut
out and the bad ones hidden but I was wrong...
Today I sent a support email. By the time I had checked for a response it was completed. No joke -
about a 2-3 minutes turn around....!!! ALL I CAN SAY IS KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT SERVICE AND I AM VERY
IMPRESSED! If I can convert anyone over I will....
(M.P.)
Man, if you guys were any quicker you'd be reading my mind and making changes before I could even ask!
(J.D.)
Thanks a lot, you guys are the best host I've ever had!!!!! (and I've been
through 7 now in less than four years!!!!) (J.K.)
Hey... I must say, if this kind of service keeps up, I wont know how to cope... I am used to having to
beg, remind, beg some more - the whole 9 yards. Thanks!!! (B.W. (reseller))
Thanks for being there when I need help. I would say that's what I like most about
you. It's not so much the package and the price, that's good too, but its the
service and support that really makes you guys great! (J.S.)
Are you a real person or a robot? It amazes me how quick you people respond to needs
of your customers. I have never received better service. Glad to know you never sleep.
Thanks again. (R.K.)
I WANT TO PUT THIS IN CAPS, BECAUSE IT IS SO IMPORTANT... I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED BETTER
SERVICE AND QUICK RESPONSE TO EMAILS AND PATIENCE WITH MY IGNORANT REQUESTS THAN I GOT
FROM YOU!!!! ...WE WILL MAINTAIN A LONG HISTORY TOGETHER!!!!! (W.B.)
I want to say now that I have been extremely pleased with your
high level of service so far in only a week or so, you have already exceeded
my last hosts level of CS (customer service/support). I will be transferring my other 2 domains
to you. (D.)
I believe with out a doubt this is the best web hosting company I have ever used. You are very nice, courteous,
and go out of your way to help people out. Keep up the good work. (D.S.)
I will definately send people your way. For the price and service that you guys
offer, you have the best deal going. (R.M.)
