Given the length of this review and the number of plans, it is unrealistic to compare everything of them one by one. As usual, the review focuses on price, features, uptime & speed as well as customer support. Before starting our detailed comparison, we’d like to share with you the overall ratings of the plans based on our first-hand hosting experience and large-sampled customer reviews.
