Started out in 2019, HostDash is a strong Shared-centric hosting provider and solely provides shared solutions. The company is based in the heath of UK - London, where the data center is located as well.
Overview
HostDash offers shared solutions that are divided into three categories: Usual, Business, and WordPress. The company’s website is modernly designed and compact, but the blatant copy-paster of some pages is unmissable. The "Startup" plan allows hosting 1 website, unlimited NVMe disk space, and usual resources. A knowledge base can be found in the footer of the site, and it has a collection of around 30 articles that touch various hosting topics.
Support
9.0
As stated on the website, HostDash’s support department is online 24/7/365. You contact support in numerous ways, live chat, email, opening a ticket, or by filling a feedback form under the “contact us” section. I chose the option of live chat, waited 5 minutes for a specialist to show up, and in total that took around 13 minutes to answer most of my questions.
Reliability
8.0
Almost, if not all features that HostDash provides are free and that includes safety and performance measures too. Here’s a shortlist: LiteSpeed to boost load speeds, CloudLinux for better user isolation, and Imunify360 for malware removal/detection. Additionally, the company is using NVMe drives only.
Aside from all of that, the company strives to be as much eco-friendly and green as it can be.
Uptime is promised to be 99.99%.
User Friendly
7.5
HostDash has support for a large chunk of platforms, most notable are DokuWiki, LiteCart, Oxygen, Joomla, and so on. The list of supported platforms can be found on the “solutions” page. WordPress takes the main place in terms of support and optimization, as it has its own, separate plan. Should you decide on moving to Hostdash, you can open a ticket requesting a managed migration, which is also absolutely free of charge.
Additionally, when configuring your plan, you can choose certain platforms and add-ons to be preinstalled.
Features
7.0
Both affiliate program and reseller hosting are available, for those who want to profit from reselling or advertising HostDash’s services elsewhere.
- Unlimited disk space;
- Unmetered traffic and Unlimited websites for business plans;
- Free SSL with cPanel;
- Free domain if you order a year or more of service.
Pricing
7.0
Although HostDash presents itself as a cheap company, the prices do not match that statement, with the cheapest being 6.95$ per month. And as usual, there is a discount if you decide on paying for yearly plans that climbs up to 58%. There are no setup or installation fees. HostDash offers a trial period that lasts one month and costs only 1$, and that applies to most of the plans.
Even after that, every plan is eligible for a refund during the period of 60 days after purchase.
