HostGator vs GazelleHost 2016 Comparison Update

hostgator-compare-to-gazellehost-review.png

2016 Revised Web Hosting Review: Plans, Pricing, Space, Uptime, Service & more...The Hatchling plan is one step below the most basic plan, the Baby plan. Hostgator Hatchling can only support hosting for one domain name instead of hosting for unlimited domains. Hostgator hosting offers 3 shared hosting plan: Hatchling, Baby and Business plan. Hatchling plan is single domain hosting. 

 

1. Price? GazelleHost is a Humble Winner

GazelleHost is significantly cheaper (both Plans on a 12-month subscription) and more powerful - with unlimited domains and ecommerce addons.

 

2. Service? GazelleHost - a Definite Winner!

There is no easy way to say this... Hostgator's service is very poor. Don't take our word for it, check out various third-party, objective online reviews. In order to verify this, we hired third party reviewers to check customer service responsiveness. Result? Very poor (12 and 14 days ticket left open with no response, 44 minutes on hold before the customer hung up and gave up)

"...We have been with various web hosting accounts throughout the years and I don’t think I would ever be writing reviews for any,
but we are truly happy with Gazelle Host. It’s been a good and we can recommend them.
If you are using Wordpress or similar CMS the hosting works fast and without any issues.
I only wish they offered more SEO products, at the time we signed up they were not so we signed up with another service
for online marketing."


Joanne Stubbs

"Had to contact (...) support twice while designing our website, on both occasions I was impressed.
The issues which seemed impossible to me, were quickly fixed, nice one! Our audience is mainly in Europe,
the servers are faster than other hosts. 5 stars!"

 

Marco Pezzopane

"Our website was hacked last year and didn't know what to do to resolve this.
Thanks to speedy Gazelle support we found out is that our Joomla was outdated and someone used our password.
Luckily their tech support helped out right away and since then we signed up for SiteLock. As a business, if there is anything you would expect
from an IT company is just that – the ability to help in situation like these, right?"

 

Ella Burkett
Web Designer

"Being a website admin, I've worked with a few webhosts, Gazelle Host is not the largest, not the cheapest (this would not be a genuine comment).
However it is down to earth, when I can pick up the phone and talk to Rob or other Geeks and get things done.
Right now, I don’t even have to worry about client’s accounts, all is working well and we are doing regular backups."

 

Peter Chen
HostConnect

"Just works! (...) it took us forever to find a web host – there are just so many out there, is that really necessary?
How do you tell the difference, it is almost nauseating, I just need to get back to work.
This one was referred by one of our clients, and it just worked, that’s it."

 

Chris Kennedy

" What Customer Service should be.
We have worked with two different hosts prior to opening our account and can say without reservation that Gazelle has the best customer support I experienced.
It is responsive, not geeky and professional. I would recommend Gazellehost to anyone.
Notable features: uptime, speed, functions (office emails)..."

 

Arnita Corbet
Personal User

"It’s like with any small business – you want to make sure they actually WILL be in business for years to come. (...)
I liked the fact that the company history was explained and they have been around since the early days and are not going anywhere.
That’s all I really care about."


Claudio
Developer

"Have been with Gazellehost.com since 2012, running our ecommerce site. The site was designed by them too.
So for about 3 years we made over 200k in sales. This didn’t happen right away but eventually we realized how amazing ecommerce can be.
If you don’t sell your products or services online , you should consider it. Initial learning curve is steep, but once you get going it just works."
