Netfirms claims to have Frontpage Extensions, however their "extensions" messed up my site. I wasn't able to use Frontpage for an entire month, because my site wouldn't open due to "time out" errors that had to do with the extensions. Their tech support people gave me the run-around, telling me that it was my program that wasn't working. However, I design sites for other people and I was able to open their sites easily using my Frontpage, just not my own! They wouldn't own up to the problem, and I am currently looking for new hosting!

Netifrms Is The Best I Have Seen

 

have been using Netfirms for almost 2 years and 95% of my web sites are hosted here. A few months ago I upgraded my plan to the Enterprise Three hosting. This plan covers me for up to 100 web sites. I have a dedicated IP address, 150 gb of storage and 2500 gb of monthly transfer. The system is based on clustering technology that gives me amazing scalability. I am also very impressed that the system gives me both Linux and Windows on the same account. This means I can run php scripts on one site, and asp on another site. It's really amazing.

The only problem I have ever had with Netfirms is when I wanted to open my youtube clone. I asked them if they would install ffmpeg on the server for me and they refused. The actual statement they gave me was that they will consider it if there is ever sufficient demand. I pay $130 per month for what is almost the most advanced package they have. The only way I can do it bigger is if I get my own server. For that kind of money, they should install anything I need on the server, not tell me that they don't feel there is sufficient demand. I was completely in shock that I had to get a separate account at another host over something so small as ffmpeg, and I nearly transferred all of my business away from them over it, but I am glad I didn't.

Other than that one problem, I have never encountered anything negative at Netfirms. They are literally the best host I have ever had, and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

I've been hosted around 7 months by now and I have no complaining at all. The customer supports it's really fast and they answer all my questions really fast. I have around 5 more domains on 2 different accounts and the websites have never been down. What I liked the most is that I got a deal with them of $10 for one full year of Netfirms Advantage Hosting!, 2 FREE domain names, 250GB of disk space, 2000GB data transfer per month, Host unlimited websites with a single account!





Reviewer: Narasimha

have 5 domains hosted with Net Firms servers.

Overall experience with them is great since i got the hosting advantage account for very less and i got lots of space and bandwidth.

The over all prices are great and cheap, not too many difference between other companies on products else then Domains and Hosting.

I never had a bad experience with this site.Very good uptime of 99.9%.

However saying that i have been generally pleased over the last few months especially since i'm currently running more than one site on my server.

All of their hosting packages come complete with the latest versions of PHP, MySQL, Joomla, phpBB, Wordpress etc... They support server side includes as well.

My Overall rating is excellent.

This hosting is really a value for your money.

I don't think any other hosting could provide as much value as netfirms provide for such a low price.

I generally find that netfirms DNS propagations occurs more faster than the other DNS propagation.

So far I never found my site down which is really a big thing.

Netfirms is ideal for all kinds of sites,either smaller or bigger.

I do prefer netfirms always,

their packages are also too god to use.

I have been a customer of Netfirms web hosting for the past 2 years. Their control panel and administration area is second to none. From the administration area, you can manage all facets of your domain and website, including, email, databases, scripts, file manager and much more.

All of their hosting packages come complete with the latest versions of PHP, MySQL, Joomla, phpBB, Wordpress etc... They support server side includes as well. The speed that my website loads is average for its size and the number of graphics on it.

The one downfall to this provider is its support. They typically reply to tickets within 24 hours, but depending on the issue, this could be too long to wait. Their replies are generic, similar to pre-typed responses that are copied and pasted. Most cases, their reply doesn't help much as it isn't unique to your case.

They do however, have an extensive self help FAQ database with video tutorials and step by step instructions, so most times you will find the same reponse they email back to you in this database.

For the price and exceptional control panel and administration area, I am extremely satified and plan on purchasing more packages in the future.

This host is simply unbeatable when it comes to service, packages and uptime. My site has never gone down and my questions are always answered quickly and with friendly, informal replies.

Happy with Netfirms Wordpress install. My search engine ranking has improved every since I moved to Netfirms and started using their customized one-click install of wordpress.

I've been with Netfirms for almost a decade. I love the ease and clarity of the control panel, especially for my less technically-adept clients. The only down side is that my artist friends cannot post their whole portfolios, due to the prohibition on nudes, even in paintings.

Up until today I was happy with Netfirms. Today their servers have not been working all day, so I have 7 sites not working. I have also noticed a slowdown with all of my sites as well. Reading some of the other posts I'm wondering if my email accounts have also been compromised with all of the spam I'm now getting.
