Really disappointed with the uptime!
Review Posted by: PL Cartrette
I'm a web designer and developer and I've been with Fatcow for about 8 months now and will never waste my money on this web host ever again! The site is down every other day and after trying to get some sort of help from tech support I have given up on my site and now use my domain name with blogger. The past few days I have decided to give my web host another go by uploading some files to my site but trying to ftp the files to the server doesn't appear to be working any longer (it worked fine before). I am still looking for a web host that has a steady and RELIABLE uptime, oh and one where the ftp can work would also be useful.

Cost effective and quality web hosting service
Review Posted by: Ajay
I hosted my website previously with godaddy.com, and the biggest problem I saw with them is that they try to upsell you on everything. Secondly, I also didn't like their control panel much as it is quite messy and is not at all user-friendly. So I switched to fatcow and have been their happy customer since the last eight years. During this whole time, I have rarely seen any downtime whatsoever. Customer support has been excellent as well. Plus the fact that they are extremely inexpensive (just $66 per year in contrast to the majority of others charging as much as $100) makes me love them even more. Hats off to fatcow for providing a cost effective and quality web hosting service! Keep up the good work fatcow. Highly recommended!

A happy customer of FatCow for the last 7 years
Review Posted by: Amanda
I have been a happy customer of FatCow for the last 7 years. Not only my own website is hosted with them but also a great number of my client's websites. The company has been operating for more than a decade now. When I started using them, I did have a few issues with them but it normalized quickly. I didn't have a lot of problems with them since then. They are not only reliable but also quick enough to respond whether you contact them by phone or by email.

The best thing I've liked about Fatcow is their honesty
Review Posted by: Owen
I have tried a couple of web hosts before this but as a web designer I have never been satisfied with any of them. FatCow, on the other hand appears to be quite different from the bulk of hosting companies. The best thing that I've liked about them is their honesty. Not once did I happen to talk to someone from other than North America during my calls to them. I had a handful of my customers for which I purchased an account with FatCow. However, within less than two weeks a handsome number of these requested that they didn't want those accounts anymore. So I had to request FatCow to cancel the accounts and refund the money, which they did with almost no delay. So their moneyback guarantee is truly "ironclad". Would strongly recommended to anyone seeking an honest hosting company.

Fatcow charges you money in case you cancel
Review Posted by: Anonymous
Fatcow does indeed charge you money should you decide to cancel their service and we would agree in this with the comments of the previous reviewer. We wanted to launch a nonprofit website that needed a template. We found the template with fatcow, so we signed up for their service only to discover later that it was meant only for premium users. We tried to deal with that problem by talking with the customer support but ah... The more we tried to make the support representative understand what our issue was, the more argumentative our whole conversation kept getting. Finally, we were left with no choice but to cancel. However, we were shocked to find that we were to be charged for the service we had used up to that point (we wonder what we had used really!). The bottom line is, beware of fatcow and make sure that the service fits your needs before signing up.
