GenxwHosting started out in 2011 as a solely shared hosting provider but shortly after also added other popular solutions of VPS and Dedicated server hostings. Over the years the company served 3000 satisfied customers and hosted 60 000 websites.

Overview
As a client, you are offered the services of Shared, Cloud VPS, and dedicated server solutions with the addition of WordPress optimized hosting. The company’s site is nice, bright, and modernly designed but for some reason, it overuses stock images. One I could add is the moment you are logged in, the client area menu is overlaid on top of the site.
A knowledge base can be found in the footer of the site and from the client area.
Support
2.0
GenXWHosting claims that the support department is online 24/7, and a client can reach support by phone, live chat, email, feedback form, or by opening a ticket. Phone support has its working hours of 10 AM to 7:30 PM IST.
Although I’ve tried contacting support with a live chat, I only got redirected and asked to open a ticket instead. But live chat itself is buggy, resetting should you switch tabs.

Unfortunately, most of the additional services, like backups are paid only.
SiteLock security is also paid, and the only free security measure is DDoS but the company does not provide other security measures. From the performance side, there is a combination of NGINX and Cloudflare.
