anhosting.com Reviews

AN Hosting has been around since 2001 and in that time, has challenged its competition at every turn. Evolving into a serious player in the shared hosting market, AN Hosting now operates out of 3 facilities in 2 countries, and shows no sign of slowing down.

Reliability
Like many of the hosts on this list, the level of AN Hosting’s reliability was evident over the course of the review. We found the responsiveness of their servers to be excellent and were hard pressed to find complaint with this aspect of their service. They have implemented a generator in case of power failure and perform regular backups, something that more hosts should do, but tend not to.

Price Value
AN Hosting prices their single hosting plan, The Mega Plan, at about the middle of the road for shared hosting, starting at $6.95 per month. For this, you get 250 gigs of web space, 2500 gigs per month of transfer, room for 10 hosted domain names (upgradeable to 20 for $3 more a month), a free domain registration, database access, a range of guarantees and much more. While the webspace and transfer provided may not exceed what their competitors are offering at comparable prices, it is worth noting that the features included with the plan are superb and in our opinion, more than compensate for the high but ordinary amount of web space and transfer included and in all fairness, none if any websites require more resources than this.

Control Panel
The control panel provided by AN Hosting is clean and straightforward. Like many hosts, they employ the popular Cpanel system, which should make most customers who have used previous hosts feel right at home. The performance and reliability of the control panel were fair, never dipping into the unacceptable. This is a good indicator of the stability of their infrastructure, as it is rare, even amongst the highest quality hosts, to encounter such a consistently reliable control panel.

Customer Support
AN Hosting offers 24/7 phone support and a convenient support system taking advantage of email support and a ticketing system. Their support staff is top notch, and always helpful when contacted.
