Victor and Marvin from the KnownHost Support Department provided awesome support migrating our website from another hosting provider. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and made sure everything went smoothly. It's the best IT experience I've had in a long time - and I'm in the industry. I provided the info they needed for the migration, went to bed, woke up, and it was done flawlessly. Just wow. Customer service is superb, industry leading I’d say. Infrastructure is good, reliable and very cost effective. Always great service, very prompt and able to quickly identify and solve any issues. I am happy with the support. But one issue is that, we have upgraded from legacy server to latest server assuming all are apps will run fast, but we didnt get expected speed in new server. Pls can you help on this. Support is good however. I've been with Knownhost for many years. Also have had a great response for all my support issues. We plan to continue to stay with KH for many more years. Excellent, really helpful support. Very prompt. Keep up the good work. Best host ever, reliable servers, and instant support if anything goes wrong. You guys are great!
