Jvmhost.com - Hosting overview

Overview

From the start, the Jvmhost’s website looks convenient, tidy, and easy to use with all the needed information accessible through a neat menu in the corner. The hosting solutions support a lot of java based software, which is the main catch of the company. The company also provides weekly and monthly backups in every plan. A knowledge base and an article section are available in the client area, sporting useful articles about various hosting questions.

There are no stated working hours or online time of the support department, with its being online at random. The support can be reached over by phone, email, or by opening a ticket.
