A2 Hosting vs. Namecheap 2020

sues that I experienced. Very happy with the speed and service.

it's fast and one of the best.
our site www.superlabs.co and many others are hosted on namecheap and they are a kick ass service and we love the support they provide and always much better than godaddy or anything else.
And it's like the name says its cheap.

unately my income is not big enough to continue use it.
I had no problems with downtime on A2Hosting and thanks to them for this, but there are many cons which makes me nervous.
1.When I add domain, it starts to run AutoSSL and until it does not assign SSL to your domain you can't do nothing with it. but it may take up to 24-72 hours and from their opinion it is normal, fortunately in my cases it did not take more then 6 hours.
Another Problem is if you use gmail address for example for sending mails from your site it will send SPF error message to your mail and will not send email. I had same problem and asked for help via chat and Support guy told me that he fixed it but problem still existed and then after a while ago I again contacted support and now I was told that I need to add spf record for all domains separately by myself.
I am sure that after some time I will find some other stupid things on this hosting, but I need to get used to it until my service ends :(
When I told that it only takes few minutes on other hostings to assign ssl this is what I got as answer: "I cannot comment other hosting, it is like you ask Volkswagen why Mercedes have something different, yet they are both just cars."
But from my oppinion other hostings sell cars which only need keys in it and it will take you anywhere, while A2Hosting sell you just car parts and you need first to build a car and only after you will be able to drive, but nowone tells you this when you pay for it, you only find out it later.
I would understand this on Dedicated servers, but shared servers mostly are purchased by non-tech people for their blogs or small business and they need some ready to go solutions, but they are forced to learn Cpanel features to make everything work and this is terrible.

ong term rates and they prevented me from doing that. I am told they triple their prices after one year.
Worse I was blocked from logging onto my website and they did not have my email on file. So my simple email did not work, and my email was not working either. I was dumbfounded. I checked my receipt and my email was spelled correctly and LISTED ON THE RECEIPT.
THen some douche wanted all my private information, way more than needed to reset my account. There is no way I'm giving out my phone number from some Indian to scam me. These customer service agents, don't even understand how the proces work It was quite clearly on their own website that my issue was related to unlocking the IP on their end. The person I talked to who could not solve my problem was Prabaharan A. I hope they fire him.
I do not recommend ever considering this company. It is bizarre that they can't make this work. I read on their own website that in the case of my situation they needed to reset the IP. They refused to do that.
If you want to have stroke talking to a wall with long long delays before getting a response, and people asking questions you already answered, sign up with this worthless company.
They won't cancel my account now, so I will have to dispute this with my credit card company.
