Money From Home - Fat Cow Host Review
Be it e-commerce with paypal or large shopping carts, on top of that I love hosting plans that provide really simple ways to get seemingly complex things done. They'll talk about things I can't understand and needing me to go through a ton of options before being able to do what I want, a lot of hosting companies don't make that easy. All I want is for them to work consistently and without me having to learn a hundred and one things before hand! Either provide people information on one of my services or hold my blog or perhaps store some photographs. My websites simply just need to get a job done.
Especially with things like e-commerce, on the other hand I know I wanted some support in the beginning and still do. Obviously this is completely unsatisfactory for anyone wanting to develop any sort of even remotely advanced site! The only problem with some of these sites is that they limit you to sites made via their own site builder program and don't allow you to design your own site and develop from there.
This is supplemented further by a public SSL certificate. They include up to 1500 POP3/IMAP accounts alongside 150GB of bandwidth and 15Gb of storage. Now I know that this may mean that some people will feel they're paying more than they have to for features they don't need but that is a criticism you can throw at most hosting companies and if you take a look at the features Fat Cow offers you'll find that most are relevant to most people. They offer one great package that fits all, for small companies and individuals with more complex requirements. The hosting company that I've found which fits these needs as tightly as any other is Fat Cow.
I've found it really hard to navigate without much guidance at all, turning to the control panel. Fat Cow does not offer 24/7 support either by phone or by messaging and in fact they have no messaging support at all and this can lead to some infuriating waits, with regards to the former. The two sections which let Fat Cow down a little bit are their customer service and control panel.
Whilst they do make things easy for those of us who aren't great technically but their relaxed attitude to work has clearly led to some corners being cut in terms of service, they're a good solution but not the best. What do I think of Fat Cow, so overall?
