CanSpace Solutions vs GreenGeeks 2019

revious host (it was hacked), fixed it up, removed the hack, and got it up and running for me all within a day. They updated all my plugins to the latest versions and even installed a Wordpress firewall for me. Some developers on Upwork were going to charge me hundreds for this - CanSpace did it all for free once I signed up with them. Super impressed!

l support, friendly and fast.
There equipment is up to date, no outages, love it.
We just bought a second reseller package as we needed a server in Canada, same thing, fast and professional, no issues.Cost a little bit more than others, but well worth it!

my contact list says my emails are going to their spam filter - only Gmail accounts were reliably receiving messages from our domains. Of course CanSpace had no idea what I was talking about but this is the same host that repeatedly cited 'propagation time' and 'client email configuration' as the reason for almost 48 hours downtime with the transfer of these domains. In the end it turned out that their 'senior' tech discovered that our MX records had been incorrectly entered -- but no apologies offered for the lies told by their incompetent support staff. I should further add that this was only discovered after raising almost a dozen tickets because guess what? Despite claiming to offer 24/7 telephone support, their phone lines were mysteriously down when we called as they were "in the middle of moving offices" - of course. When I escalated the situation to owner Sunil and explained how messages from our domains were being blocked by half our address book since transferring them to Canspace, I was told to sign up for Amazon SES (Simple Email Service) - at an added cost - to better ensure that our messages were whitelisted. Fifteen years using the same domains with various hosts, no problem. Day one and every day after with Canspace, half the messages being sent from our domain are blocked. It was such a disruption to our business during our busiest time of year that we had to switch to using a Gmail account to ensure reliable email communication. The eventual solution? Transferring the domains the hell away from CanSpace to Namespro based in Vancouver. Total downtime? 3 hours but more importantly once again all of our emails are reaching our clients and the nightmare that is CanSpace is thankfully over. Deal with CanSpace at your own risk.

sign up, coupled with long delay after you paid and post work-hours call from across the pond to confirm you are not a fraud. Your hosting is only limited to website related files (no work, no media etc), please refer to their TOS( fine print ) and understand all the many limits, factor in additional hosting costs if your work requires it. This may not be uncommon but they are very aggressive in enforcing that, it almost comes off fragile. Migrating is hard and time consuming as their php settings by default appear very limited to prior host. As you try overcome these issues adjusting script code, their Firewall blocks you time and time again (not just for editing, even using site). If that's your webmaster, consider this as additional cost. Raise a ticket and they offer temporary whitelisting of your DYNAMIC IP. Problem is unresolved as issue continues weekly. Lack of unicode support so they will botch your name and address also complicating domain migration. Various problems with their site, for example I had to talk to customer service who wrote white text on white background as seen from Linux, firefox. Text was invisible, had to select it to see what's being written. Very unhelpful customer service, even bulling in enforcing their TOS. This is just tip of the iceberg, not letting the review get too long. I paid for 3 years and I am less than 6 months in, they refused refund, but that's fine as getting a new host and not feeling like a hostage is worth a small hit. I just hope someone else does all the homework, read their fineprint (TOS) and understands what's behind the smoke and mirrors.
