I have been with Heart Internet for around 7 years and always find them very helpful and extremely reliable. I previously had 3 websites with them and have now merged them to one website which is very cost effective. I'm not very tech savvy so when I have an issue I raise a ticket and one of the tech support team help out. They are always very prompt and helpful and generally my issues are resolved within a day. Even when the fault is my own the are patient and guide me through it. Recently had to access something which had changed and a new team member called Jason was especially helpful in sorting out my issues. So, thank you to Jason and Heart for making it very easy.
I migrated my website from another hosting company to my Heart Internet VPS server. When this was done it caused a problem where there was wrong ownership on the WP-Content folder. As my server is a VPS and normally unmanaged by Heart internet this left me concerned as I had limited support. Fortunately with a kind email to there support team, they were able to help me, and on this occasion it did not cost anything which i thought was reasonable. The problem was solved quickly and i was relieved.
I have been using Severs for years. Tried so many companies for windows hosting but to be very honest HeartInternet is the best. I chose it for my client, and in the past two years, everything is smooth. Our server is unmanaged, but support always helped us to resolve the issues. Today, Mr Simon Osborne helped with some server issue. He was helping like sitting beside me and fixing All. I recommend HeartInternet.
