I've had a lot of problems, but the support people have been diligent in trying to help. Problems have seem to have settled down.
Took 2 weeks and 4 different follow up calls/messaging sessions to get it fixed.
Every time I go to my account and then click on edit site, I am constantly getting an error and it won't load up my site. We have to contact support every time we go to edit the site just to get on.
I expected more guidance, paying as much money as I did to have you guys do the migration for me...
Even after a year, I still receive 1-2 calls a day from companies trying to sell me domain services, after you gave my email address out.
I find Bluehost mail to be clunky and the interface to be "old fashioned" compared to most other mail services I use. I am in software development and I don't find the website easy to set up at all. The email has too many steps to get to it.
El único inconveniente es que aun no me han solucionado los certificados de seguidad para que mi pagina quede https de resto todo esta perfecto
They need to work on payment thins, when i pay manually i dont expect them to do it again by auto renewal, i dont like the platform because they miss use the credit card info.
Seems like you can navigate to dead ends pretty easy
After learning how use the systems I find it very easy and quick to update things on the website and blog.
The person I just spoke with today was obviously ONLY interested in sales and pushing sales. As soon as I said, nicely I might add, that I would call back to manually renew a service, he promptly hung up. He obviously didn't want to waste another minute with me. Seemed ONLY interested in making sales. Not interested in Customer Service.
Wordpress has gotten extremely unwieldy to use. I just want to change my home page - and how to do so is not intuitive.
This has been the most disappointing process I've ever added to a business in my life.
The Wordpress integration never works and I can never update my website easily.
We have multiple accounts with Bluehost. We have problem with our main accounts since the last 2 years. And it got worse. Our webpage sites do not respond for 1 to multiple minutes. We have contacted your tech support many times over many hours and they were not willing to work on the problems, just dancing around the bushes.
Love Bluehost, but the new interface is challenging. The UX takes some getting used to. Also, I'm a bit confused as to why we have to sign in with our User ID now.
On numerous occasions i have logged on and the security has gone from my website, changed to 'not secure'. Then the whole rigmarole of contacting customer services which is time consuming.
I spend most of my time when logged in with PhPAdmin, FileManager, or some other application from CPanel. The new start-up screen makes this a pain in the $#*!.
I'm new to Bluehost and self-taught with Bluehost and Wordpress. Interface is easy and self-explanatory and the chat feature is nice and VERY helpful.
I'm on the fence about my experience basically because there are times I am able to access my websites panel and there are times when they are nowhere to be found.
