JustHost Reviews

When I ordered at JustHost I didn't have any problems, but I got suspended because my site uses a lot of their CPU. I sent maybe 3-4 emails but they got my money back. And for me JustHost isn't so bad for smaller sites. But their support sucks. Overall they are a good hosting company.

I used to be with JustHost for about a year. This is going to be a short review because I don't have much to say about them, in a bad way.

Their support is sometime very fast and friendly, but at times you can submit a support ticket and never get a reply for days. When you do get to talk with live support, they constantly change you through different departments. The best way to get a reply for support is through email.

Their plans are all extremely cheap shared hosting ones. I mean cheap in both ways. One is that their plans are all near about only $4/month. Secondly they're cheap because of how horrible their uptime is. I was never up for a complete solid week or two. They always were having power failures, hardware failures, etc.

I would never recommend JustHost to anyone.

I am very pleased with the uptime of my website, and them giving away unlimited virtually everything for a measly £2.75 per month. I think that's a great deal! My only grudge is you have to pay for anything extra, but most of the things are pretty reasonably priced, and affordable.
I have sent a few tickets and all of them have been resolved quickly, and the staff seem to be friendly. I have no grudges about the support team.

Justhost is a really great host. My account was set up quickly and without much issues. There uptime is great and when I have any question their staff answers it quickly and promptly with the utmost respect. I think that JustHost is suitable for anyone who needs a host that is reliable and helpful. I have recommended the host to several friends and suggest that you use them today.

I used JustHost for my relatively small non profit organization. Considering our very, very small budget, their cost was very prohibitive to us. However, hearing good things, we decided to "bite the bullet" and sign up. It was disappointing to see once we signed up that several important features, including the DNS Zone Editor, were disabled in their cPanel interface. They also fill their interface with advertisements and promotions, so you have to scroll down a lot to get to what you are looking for. I understand their cost of $6.95 a month may not be prohibitive to businesses, but for us it truly was disappointing - we expected more for our money.
Additionally, they glorify their "UNLIMITED Bandwidth, Disk Space, Emails, ect." but only after signing up did we discover their true unlimited policy. For example, all files have to be linked to from your site and be available publicly (so much for our idea of an internal section). There is also a limit of 50,000 inodes (we did not exceed that, but it was always in the back of our minds). Their unlimited subdomains, domains, and email addresses was a plus, although it was disappointing that they only offer Horde and Squirrel Mail for webmail, as I prefer Roundcube. The Fantastico scripts also were a huge hit.

Unfortunately, they did not really live up to our expectations. I would say that they really don't go any farther than the typical cPanel hosting company, with the possible exception of uptime. However, many cheaper cPanel hosting companies exist with all of the same features of Just Host, so after my initial subscription I've now switched hosts.

I am very happy with my JustHost hosting package. It's cheap and very fast, no downtimes, no problems.
I recommend it to anyone.

Customer service is very poor I keep being transferred to different dept, know one is willing to solve the problem.. They refuse to give me access to the domain I paid for. Its going on 2 weeks now! The only way to communicate is email and it takes over 24 hours for reply!

Uptime in Justhost is excelent, uptime of Justhost rocks.
The support chat of Justhost sucks, they only say send a ticket and sometimes I've been waiting for 48 horas for an answer for a ticket.
Chat supporters are like robots.
One time they had a downtime, but it was solved in 1 hour.
ADVICE: Buy priority support for 9.99 per year for getting a better and real support.

I'm very satisfied with this web host,when I registered my account ,I made subscription via paypal but I accedintly closed the page after payment was ended and did not returned to just host website to complete registration , I contacted the sales and they gave me my login details.

their features and limitations are very fair for what you pay (3.4$ per month)
I got the unlimited plan(I can host as many websites as I wish ) .

I strongly recommend this web host to my friends and colleagues.

I am using just host for around 1 year and i am very happy with the service I have received from justhost. Their support is quite fast and friendly. I am in their $3.95 unlimited hosting plan and it appear to be really unlimited plan as they have never contacted me regarding over usage or any other stuff. I am suggest others also to go for it...

JustHost is a good host for starting a website. If you want to have a website with traffic spikes, this may not be your best choice. I had troubled it at the start, but now it is good. Their servers are pretty fast . I asked them a question and they responded pretty quickly. I don't like their cpanel admin layout. They have too many ads for upgrades and other services. It is pretty cheap considering the price. This is suitable for small businesses and website with steady traffic. They have handled my problems pretty good till now. They have unlimited space and bandwidth or so they say. I haven't had that many visitors on my site to know. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good web host for cheap. Just host is given 4 out of 5 stars

I have recommended JustHost to friends and colleagues as a great low-cost web hosting service. I set up my site with few problems. I was given prompt, correct support when I needed help.

You need to have some level of comfort with technical issues to use this service. My primary use has been hosting sites I've developed on Dreamweaver, but I've also moved several sites I previously created using iWeb.

JustHost offers great deals, on quality hosting. The only thing that I really don't like about them, is that they are constantly trying to get more money out of me. They concentrate on marketing in every aspect, emails and even ads in the cPanel. It's nothing that greasemonkey can't take care of, of course.

I've been with them around 6 months now, no downtime, whatsoever. Support is decent. I would recommend JustHost to any intermediate web designer/developer.

I have been a customer of Just host for nearly a year now and cannot find a thing to complain about.

I recieve email responses beyond expectations. The few querys I had were down to my inexperience but the were back to me quickly with answers that solved my problems and I could understand.

The c-panel is greatly configurated with all I need to create, manage, edit, host, sell, market, research and incorporate any web element into the site seemlessly. RV Site builder is great and comes with it's library of images and lots of interfaces for multimedia like youtube and music files. From rv alone, you can configure your own website, blog, newsletter, gallery, contact forms and guest books. Other software I had immediate access to was not too complicated and needed experience I didn'y have.

Databases configure easily,file editing and managing software is top notch and the server has not been down once yet.

I would definitely recommend just host for ease of use and reliability.

Software like blogs, content managers, image editors and compressors, shopping carts, chat rooms, polls and site builders are included in the c-panel with many more instant installations. Makes life so easy. Installations only take a few seconds and have wysiwyg editors for ease of use.

I want value for my money and a guarantee that i can always cancel my orders get refund for my payments. Well , justhost provided me both of this. Their webhosting plan are very cheap actually very very cheap. I hope they provide cheapest web host in market. Above that they also give one or three free domain name according to the plan selected.

Well their support is really fast. And they provide us three options to get support live chat with a real person (Best to solve small problems)
, Email and phone. But i must tell that their real time chat support personnels don't have much technical knowledge. But their phone and email support are very fast and useful also. I get my problem solved through email support in just 1-3 hours.

But i have also faced many downtimes in their server I have been victim of 4 downtimes from 3 hours to 48 hours!!!! in 7 months of my hosting with them. But that problem was in the beginning of my hosting signup and now a days i don't get such problems.
As they provide Cpanel for hosting control any one with basic Cpanel control knowledge can signup with them And they also provide many video
tutorials to use Cpanel so its not so hard for newbie webmasters also to have a hosting account with them and control it.

I will recommend everyone to use justhost.com .

I wish I had got to read the review before I was signing up..

I found justhost lucrative becaouse of the low cost and wordpress refernce at wordpress.com.. but when i contacted the "live chat help" of just host, i felt suspicious. there was a bot replying to my queries.. that was annoying

later, in between signing up for justhost services i decided to leave and when i was closing the window without signing, i got another message saying i will get 25% discount if i stay.. and i was ready to be fooled

ok, now, i have been with justhost for over few months, and they ditched my website 3-4 times.. i lost major number of visitors and email...

what else can i say about justhost?

when i asked them to refund, they said 20$ will be deducted.. and if i stay back, i will get 3 months extra hosting

but the visitors i lost never came back to me...
