   They Are Simply The Best

   So i signedup with Hostiso in 10/2014 (Almost 10 Years now) and it has been pretty smooth and hassle free for the most of the times during these 10 years.

   Prior to getting my 1st dedicated with them, i was with wiredtree for a long time followed by dediserve and had real good service standards from both of them and Hostiso for most of the part in these 9 years has not disappointed me. Their staff is polite, prompt and proactive for most of the parts and the good part is their CEO Evan who is a very reasonable guy. In 2021 I got covid and was in ICU for over 45 days. I had limited internet and my card was'nt saved on my phone . When i got a reminder for the payment, i told them my situation and Evan ensured that the server was kept running for another 2 months when i finally paid (I pay them 6 months in a go).

   They have staff in USA and in India but none of them are any less than each other . This is important to mention For those who have a red flag for outsourced staff as their staff from India is very professional and happy to help & is able to solve all your issues even at odd hours (Guess the old saying , you get what you pay for is true here for i'm sure they're spending good on quality staff).

   Their Dedicated servers are stable, professionally managed by their staff and apart from a DC Fire issue where they went offline in 2021 for a few hours, I did'nt had any considerable downtime during my time with them. All in all, you get a good night sleep while they manage your servers.

   I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a good provider who is here to stay and serve professionally , timely and proactively. Plus they have multiple locations now on offer.

   If you're hunting with 1 Bullet, wait for a clean shot !

• Looking for better service

  Maybe check cloudns.net if they offer what you need, you can also use them as secondary DNS provider if you run your own primary server. Source: over 1 year ago

• [q]uestion? What is the most secure way to remote access to home lab?

  I don't have a static IP, but my clients are still setup to use the DNS name of my routers public facing IP. I use free DNS hosting from cloudns.net, and use another OpenWRT package to that keeps my dynamic dns up-to-date. Source: over 1 year ago

• Who hosts your MX records?

  CF API is definitely easy, but we also use cloudns.net and their API for some of our LE wildcard cert stuff. Source: over 1 year ago

• I bought a custom domain with GoDaddy and originally linked it with WordPress but recently switched to GitHub Pages but my custom domain still directs to WordPress?

  One way to avoid longer propagation period is to use https://cloudns.net (you can try their free plan before committing further). 1m TTL 💪. Source: almost 2 years ago

• DDNs set-up help

  I got a DDNS at cloudns.net and then created an A-Record pointing to the public IP of our fritz.box. Then I set up DynDNS in the Fritz Box, and it says that it is logged on and working. Next, I enabled port forwarding of Port 80 and 443 to my machine. But I still get a ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error on Brave and on Firefox the Website just load indefinitely. Source: over 2 years ago
