Overview
Cenmax provides all of the popular hosting solutions, so that’s shared, VPS, and dedicated server solutions. All the plans presented to the customer have some variations like WordPress, Cloud, Linux, or Windows hosting. The most basic shared plan offers unlimited NVMe disk space, unlimited bandwidth, and the ability to host 1 website, for cloud it's pretty much the same, except, it's cloud. VPS has 1CPU core, 512MB RAM, 10GB disk space, and 500GB bandwidth. The site is designed with modern standards but it has too much fluff text.
A knowledge base is available on the site that has over 150 articles on various hosting topics.
Support
8.0
CenMax promises 24/7 support with a 15 minute response time on average. The only way to contact support is by opening a ticket through a client area. I’ve sent a ticket with a small list with some technical questions and I got a response with detailed answers in just one hour.
Reliability
8.5
Most, if not all of CenMax data centers are rated TIER 3 or TIER 4.
Shared solutions have included backups service, these backups are daily.
CenMax uses modern up-to-date RAID 10 supported NVMe drives. The company provides some security measures like DDoS protection, WAF firewall, Antivirus software, and constant monitoring. On the other hand, there are much more performance measures instead, custom container system, LiteSpeed, CDN network, CloudLinux and KVM virtualization. It’s more so for cloud plans, as the company uses google cloud and auto-scaling to power its cloud solutions.
Uptime is promised to be 99.99% or even 100% for cloud-based plans.

Pricing
7.0
At the first glance, the prices look below the market average, but it’s because CenMax uses a clever trick by showing the lowest price that is accompanied by the 3-year plan. Removing that discount shows that the company has market average prices, with the cheapest being a shared plan called “basic” that costs 6.99$ per month. The aforementioned yearly plans have a discount that can climb up to 75%. There are no setup or installation fees.
Only shared solutions are eligible for a refund, and a period during which you can order a refund lasts 30 days.
