Inmotionhosting.com - Hosting overview

Overview

InMotionHosting has over 20 years of experience, and this shows in their website and the quality of the service. The company provides all of the popular solutions: Shared, VPS, and dedicated server hostings, but there’s more since the company also offers WordPress and private cloud solutions.

The most basic shared plan allows the hosting of 2 websites on 100GB storage and unlimited bandwidth. While VPS has 2CPU, 2GB RAM, 45GB of disk space, and unlimited bandwidth.

A knowledge base is incorporated into the support center, over 20 years having accumulated over 5000 articles

As stated on the website, the support department works around the clock 24/7. And you can contact them using a live chat, email, phone, or tickets. Although inmotionhosting claims 24/7 support, it’s not entirely true, as the live chat can be devoid of any specialist for hours, and after waiting almost 5 hours for a specialist to show up, it took around 18 minutes for a specialist to take care of my problems.

InMotionHosting claims that the server uptime is 99.99%. To ensure that the company uses a multilayered security system consisting of multiple custom firewalls, DDoS attack protection by Corero, antivirus, and hack protection software. The company uses its custom UltraStack cache optimizer along with using Brotli compression, Nginx, and apache to boost up load speeds tremendously.  Snapshots and backups are included and are scheduled. Shared hosting plans use NVMe SSDs, but other plans use conventional SSDs.

Softaculous is included free of charge in most of the plans, allowing for an easy one-click installation of popular CMS platforms, add-ons, plugins, etc.

Here are some of the supported and heavily optimized CMS platforms with a ready-made hosting solution: WordPress, Magento, Drupal, WooCommerce. Inmotionhosting only supports Unix-based OS. A free managed transfer is available, where the specialist will take the task of transferring your website to InMotionHosting servers.
