UniHost main focus is providing Dedicated server hosting and Cloud VPS hosting, and later option comes with a great variety. Their data centers are spread out all over the world, from the US to the Netherlands, and are rated TIER 3 or TIER 4.
Overview
One of the main features that UniHost gladly puts out is their powerful dedicated servers, capable of handling a truly massive amount of data, running gaming or streaming services. But it doesn’t stop there, hosting also includes free backups and a basic monitoring service in each of their plans with a lot of locations to choose from to place your server.
UniHost with its client-centric approach presents its customers with an ability to customize just about everything in the server.
Support
9.5
As stated on their main page, Tech support work 24/7 and will deal with any problem in the time corresponding to the difficulty. Along with resolving questions, support staff deals with monitoring your server depending on if you subscribed to that service. As a nice touch, they will take the task of transferring your site. Support department can be reached over by phone, email, telegram, skype or a live chat. A knowledge base can be found in the footer, providing necessary answers for those who are looking to do things themselves.
Reliability
9.0
As mentioned above, hosting provides free backups on combined NAS and RAID technologies to ensure your data will stay nice and safe. DDoS attack protection, firewalls, and malware protection services are provided in every plan.
With the equipment located in the most reliable and secure data centers (TIER3-4) the company guarantees a 99.9% uptime, and even if there is a problem, hot-swap technology will immediately transfer your website over to another server, not losing a minute of availability.
Sadly, hosting does not provide a free SSL certificate, instead, you’d have to buy one from them or source one elsewhere
User Friendly
9.5
ISPmanager control panel is provided to every dedicated server, in addition to their own web interface for management. Unfortunately, they don’t provide an option to automatically install CMS, and you’d have to do it yourself, either with the help of tech support or by following tutorials in the knowledge base.
The company’s site is well designed, placing all of the necessary information and services in convenient places
Features
9.0
A ton of features, anything is possible on a dedicated server, stuff like gaming, streaming services, BigData server, VOIP service, and the list goes on. With an ability to choose from multiple locations around the world and to customize a server to every possible need, Unihost definitely stands out.
Additionally, you can purchase UniHost managing service, either for their own hosting or for another provider.
Pricing
9.5
The prices are ranging near market average, of course, it all depends on your plan as the prices can jump up and down depending on your demands. 5.90$ is the starting point for the VPS service, while 14$ is for dedicated ones. The payment can be made in USD, EUR, UAH, and RUB and through a bank card or payments systems like Paypal, Webmoney, interkassa, privat24, liqpay.
There’s a loyalty program, should you pay for a year or more in advance, the price per month will be significantly lowered. A 10$ discount on any first server purchased.
There's no trial period mentioned anywhere or a refund guarantee, which can be a little sketchy for a regular user

Great Service provided by unihost
I've been using Unihost for a while. Currently running two dedicated servers with them. It doesn't have the best user experience, but it has an awesome support that quickly helped me get access to my server after my laptop broke. Would recommend to everyone.
