HostExcellence has three hosting plans, all of which are now on sale. The BASIC PLAN is $3.95 per month, equivalent to RMB 331 per year, which is very cost-effective.
We have noticed HostExcellence before, but after all, in the virtual hosting market, HostExcellence is not as well-known as some other companies. But in the end, we found that HostExcellence and the famous IXWebhosting in the hosting market are actually the same company (Ecommerce, Inc. located in Ohio). To be honest, it is no wonder that the interface is exactly the same, and the only difference is the specifications of the host.
Our own experience and comments are different from other websites. We believe that only by using it can we truly understand it. Therefore, we actually apply for each host provider to use and test it.
HostExcellence has also upgraded all their plans to unlimited space and unlimited traffic in mid-2008. Unlike IXWebhosting, HostExcellence offers two specifications of hosting services. The plan we recommend is the Professional plan, which also has a very good C/P ratio.
Since they are the same company, the main purpose of introducing HostExcellence is to provide webmasters with a Windows virtual host (Professional plan). I think it is the first choice for webmasters who need Windows hosting. The two-year payment plan is only $5.95 per month, and it has ASP.NET+MSSQL and everything else. Although IXWebhosting also has the same level of Windows hosting specifications, HostExcellence is positioned at a relatively low price marketing. We think HostExcellence has more advantages than IXWebhosting~
So what is the difference? IXWebhosting provides 8 independent IPs/2 free domain names, HostExcellence provides 5 independent IPs/1 free domain name. Of course, there is not much difference in other specifications, but IXWebhosting provides a bunch of free website building software and services, free Google Adword, Yahoo ads, MSN ads, network marketing value-added services, etc., which HostExcellence does not provide. For webmasters, I think there is no difference in these things. When the price of a Windows virtual host is $5.95 per month and it has everything it should have, in terms of function and price ratio, HostExcellence's Professional plan is indeed the first choice for Windows virtual hosts. We think so
All other interfaces of HostExcellence are exactly the same as IXWebhosting, including H-Sphere, Ticket system, Live chat, and using your own independent IP, which saves you from the extra cost and the possibility of being blocked by IPs from China or other countries. It has all the functions and is very cost-effective. We are not using HostExcellence's hosting service at present, but according to our recent communication and inquiries with their relevant personnel, in short, it is the same as IXWebhosting~
Host Specifications and Features Introduction All HostExcellence specifications are roughly the same as IXWebhosting, but IXWebhosting has some added value, free, and web marketing features, which HostExcellence does not have. This is the general difference.
The Professional plan provides 1 free domain name + 5 independent IPs, which is the feature of HostExcellence. Compared with every other hosting company that charges at least 2 US dollars/month for independent IPs, HostExcellence provides 5 free independent IPs for customers to use. If you add unlimited domain name settings, it can be said that it is a very good choice for customers who want to set up multiple websites. It also uses its own H-Sphere control panel. HostExcellence's own H-sphere control panel is very easy to use. It is completely based on icons. The detailed instructions and intuitive design make it easy for users to use.
The most outstanding feature of the H-Sphere control panel is the multi-functional variable name/site management. In this respect, it is more powerful and easier to operate than CPanel, which is why we should give it a round of applause. But there are still some functional differences from the general CPanel control panel, so it may be considered a relatively weak project.
HostExcellence implements a series of money-back guarantees, and like IXWebHosting, they promise that if you are not satisfied within 30 days, you can get a 100% refund. If you exceed 30 days, you can get the remaining amount for the unused time.
HostExcellence virtual host is one of the few that supports ASP space. If you need ASP space, then HostExcellence virtual host will be a great choice. The specifications of Windows host are exactly the same as those of Linux host. The important thing is that even the price is the same, which is very attractive.
Carefully considering the differences in specifications between IXWebhosting and HostExcellence, it is probably because HostExcellence removed the original value-added services and free marketing benefits, and then adjusted the specifications down a little bit, resulting in HostExcellence's Professional plan. There is also an Unlimited Business plan above it, which is like removing the peripheral additional things of IXWebhosting's intermediate plan. The specifications of the two companies are intertwined, which is a good strategy, right? For low-cost Windows virtual hosts, webmasters who want to use ASP.NET+MSSQL, HostExcellence is the first choice~
Customer Service and Technical Support
HostExcellence and IXWebHosting promise to respond to customer support within 1 hour. After you send an email, if they do not respond within 1 hour, HostExcellence will refund part of the hosting fee for that month as compensation. After several tests, I found that the customer service level is pretty good, no worse than IXWebhosting (same company should be the same)!
I also recommend going directly to Live Chat for support, which is faster and more direct. HostExcellence's online ticketing system is the same as IXWebhosting's. I have never encountered a situation where the person who responded to my call was the same person as IXWebhosting. However, just like IXWebhosting, the customer service in 2008 is constantly improving, and going directly to Live Chat is the best way.
I won't repeat myself about HostExcellence any more. I just don't understand why they are obviously the same company, but they like to split into two or three companies on the surface. The BlueHost system and iPower series are all like this. |
