GreenGeeks Reviews & Product Details

I love their excellent customer support, never experienced a long wait. Their reliable uptime is also a great benefit for me. Their dashboard and other interfaces are super easy to use.

They need to offer more plans specificly for high-demand hosting needs.

A hosting provides that is environmental conscious. and also provides datacenters based in Canada

Customer service is always incredibly quick. They've even solved issues I had with my website in the middle of the night! They are also as eco-friendly as possible, which I love.

I don't dislike anything about GreenGeeks.

I have a website using GreenGeeks webhosting that is as eco-friendly as possible, with quick and efficient customer service. My website has never been down for more than a few minutes, for reasons that were addressed and corrected immediately (often before I even knew anything was going on!)

The customer service with greengeeks was outstanding. They had my reseller account up within 2 minutes and I was already making money!

Software deployment could have been a little easier to use. Wasnt hard to use though.

I use greengeeks personally for my reseller account to get my clients up and running faster. This is the best way to make money.

The hosting is fast. Every time I have needed support I have received nearly instant response from the chat agent. The bandwith and resource allocation work great for most sites using wordpress and drupal. Email setup through cpanel works great and is really nice to have unlimited storage on the primary domain on my reseller account.

The firewall and IP blocking rules are a little strict for shared and reseller hosting. One of my clients needed to access their web app simultaneously with about 12-15 users. There was no performance issues with the hosting, but the firewall kept blocking their ip address. Greengeeks was not able to lift this rule for this client on reseller hosting. I noticed that on the new plans for reseller hosting they have changed from limited storage space and unlimited cpanel accounts to a new model. The new model allows for unlimited storage space but the plan pricing is based on number of cpanel accounts. I don't forsee any issues with this model for things like prototyping, but I believe it will increase costs for the reseller as new clients come on board.

Instant cpanel creation for prototyping websites and web apps. I'm able to have nearly unlimited projects in different stages of development with reseller hosting. We have been using email through the reseller hosting for our company, as well as some of our clients. I think that the ability to set up email without any additional monthly costs is great

We strive to be environmentally conscious and sustainability was one of the things we wanted in our website hosting.

I've seen the website down for no reason at all... the only reason I noticed was Google actually sent me an alert. It only happened once and they fixed the problem quickly when I contacted them, but I don't know how many potential visitors were turned away.

A website host is a basic necessity, but the bonus of being environmentally-friendly helps maintain our integrity by showing that we make an effort to stand by our green values.

Cheap price, nice quality and very good service. I have used many host and i feel this is one of the best.

Sometime, i get some errors about payment

I'm always looking for a good hosting because i want to make the best website and GreenGeeks is so suitable.

They have a good solid support, online chat as well as phone support that you can contact at all hours.

They no longer have a managed VPS solution. They recently removed it. It was not all their fault, based on the price changes by cpanel which is 3rd party server management software.

I use greengeeks for a shared hosting solution for most of my clients. Easy to use, solid pricing and phone support for my clients.

The support personnel at Green Geeks is extraordinary! Most marketers I know don't really want to completely comprehend the ins and outs of setting up a VPS Server, adding Cnames and redirecting domains, etc. We have other things to do. I was really confused when I was told that the mass emailer software I just purchased needed a VPS. A V what?? Support at GreenGeeks helped me with every detail, every step to ensure I had a quality, stable server for my mailer. They couldn't have been more professional, kind, and patient with me. And when I wanted to expand my hosting needs for a website, that was already covered under the monthly fee I was paying.

This may seem trivial, but when time matters (and we all know it does), I had to search high and low on Green Geeks website for the Sign up/ Sign in links. I finally just googled "Green Geeks signup page." I mean, come on web designers...if you lose a customer or two to a competitor because you make it too difficult to locate the most important step to access your services, then I think it's your own darn fault ;). That's why I chose an 8 instead of a 10.

I purchased this inexpensive mass mailer/autoresponder software, but afterwards found out I needed a VPS Server to host it on the web. They recommended Green Geeks so they solved this cruciap piece for me. I realized that Green Geeks had excellent support as well as being a full service hosting site w8th everything from domain registration to integration with Wordpress for web design. I am not currently using Green Geeks only because I don't currently use the mailer I purchased and decided against the website I was planning to build.

Easy to use platform for creating Wordpress sites. Performance is Ok, but not the best.

The performance isn't as good as some of the comparable companies out there for hosting.

I like that their servers are running on a green energy and are better for the environment.

GreenGeeks has competitive pricing for the service they offer. The Ecosite Starter starts at $3.95 a month triennially and comes with unlimited web space, unlimited data transfer, a free domain, and various application support such as WordPress. If you are a beginner, they offer starter site builder which you can request for free.

Although GreenGeeks advertise themselves as a Canadian hosting service with servers in Toronto, they do not have Canadian pricing and charge all plans in USD. The file manager in cPanel only allows selection of files and lacks a method of uploading whole folders at once. FTP account setup and connection is required for better file management which is fine but adds to the number of interfaces I have to work with when managing my sites. There are also hidden clauses not apparent when looking at their plans such as their excessive usage policy: "A hosting account is considered using "Excessive amounts of resources" when it consumes 100% of 1 CPU core, and/or 1 GB Memory, 20 concurrent connections and/or 75,000 files also known as "Computing Resources", and/or "Resources", and/or "Resource Usage"."

I have a startup company that needs reliable web hosting and GreenGeeks offers great uptime and nightly backups.

The ease of checking and availability and registering a domain and relative process experience

The payment options and ability to use the host for evaluation purposes prior to signup

Overall simple hosting for smaller company business, we did however move to another platform

At first, I liked Green Geeks and did not have much to complain about.

I found that when I needed assistance, I was provided with a link to an article to read and fix the issue by myself.

I am no longer using GreenGeeks so nothing is to my benefit.

GreenGeeks is a reliable host. If you're just starting out with your website, you can get a reliable host for a great price. There customer support is amazing and I have not had any issues in the past.

If you're scaling, suddenly the amount you have to pay is going to be very high. And you can get a higher plan from a better service provider such as Cloudways.

I wanted a cheap but reliable host to get started with WordPress. For that purpose, GreenGeeks hosting was great. Initially, I had multiple sites in the same account, including a WooCommerce website. They allowed me to keep it for a long time without limiting the resources.

Support is amazing. Server performance is much much better. choice of Canadian data centres.

The pricing is kind of pricier than other web hosting companies, but their service makes up for the price.

Data reside problems, privacy concerns. fast website performance.

I originally started using GoDaddy for web hosting until I switched because of a promo that they had. I prefer GreenGeeks over any web hosting sites. They have excellent customer service and it is super fast and easy to begin. My favorite thing they do is they help reroute all domains for you instead of the tedious work that I would have had to do on the back end. And a plus, they are a green company!

The only issue that ever occurred was a kick back on my payment. I'm not sure if it was something on my end or on their servers. I called customer service and it was taken care of quickly.

I was using GreenGeeks for web hosting services and wordpress hosting.

The downtime has been really outstanding.

The customer support is hit or miss at times.

Hosting all my websites - pretty straight forward.

Their shared hosting is fast when compared to some of the traditional ones. Their customer support is excellent, and their dashboard makes it easy to use and implement. They also have one of the high-paid affiliate programs in the market.

They do provide some great offers when we are starting, but their price increases after using it for the initial years.

They have one of the fastest servers out their, which makes our website load pretty faster. Easy to use

They offset 3x the energy they use with, I believe wind credits. Oddly, this is difficult information to find on their website right now. For my sustainable industry clients, this is a big plus. I also appreciate that they have not sold out to EIG.

I feel that overall, the hosting is a bit slower than other hosting platforms. Things can hang up significantly. when doing a backup or updating plugins. They do not have an easy "let's encrypt" option like many others, but they will help you use a let's encrypt SSL certificate.

Claiming a "green" hosting solution for sustainable industry clients. It is reliable hosting, no major problems.

Widely suported and familiar Hosting Interface FAirly timely customer service

Restricted usage and tight enforcement during spikes in usage

Hosting option for multiple clients are a lower cost
