Sites continually going down. Have had to call in 10+ times in 3 days
Maybe I am on a new box with nobody else - but this site is super fast!
Tech support is horrible in communication. There's delays in chat, I also got roped into products I didn't need. I feel I wasted about $3500 in total. But it is what it is and until I can grow as a company I'm kind of stuck.
Automated chat boxes aren't ready for prime time. They lead to very frustrating interactions. Your ceaseless advertising is annoying. The login page requires 3 clicks to get to cpannel instead of 1. The rest has been great
Hard to add domain to my existing account. Bluehost keeps assigning web hosting to things I don't want to be hosted.
Just log me into the cp and stop with the advertising
Have had an SSL certificate issue for two days with multiple support agents with NO RESOLUTION. Some for as long as 4 hours!
The user interface could be less confusing for non-technical people like me.
Need more tutorials as I am a new user and need to improve my market presence
The new UI and pricing are simply horrible, bluehost use to be good but now everything is downgraded and overprices
A lot of problems lately with bluehost, filezilla connection, site web down...
It is so hard to get into log in and the dashboard I poorly designed,
Downtime, server issues and lack of personalised assistance and attention. Very high renewal prices.
Customer service all but unreachable. I've been dealing with this for days
Two of my websites were down for almost 2 weeks; nobody knew why nor seemed to follow-up with me about status. Bluehost did not respond when I asked for compensation for loss of web time which resulted in lost of business.
Everything was great until my site disappeared. Customer service was able to restore it, but at first I could not edit the pages, and once I could edit them, I realized all my buttons and links had disappeared. Thank goodness it is a small site
Experience is great with very good customer service
Still a little confusing but I am getting the hang of it.
Email seems to be down frequently. Problems with the email server?
I have been in contact many times recently to get website backups working. Last time I was assured the problem was fixed. I still cannot see backups or initiated a backup without an error message. Not happy.
I wish the whole experience was more counter-intuitive.
Getting to grips with it, but not the easiest or most intuitive.
