Summary
Max Ostryzhko Senior Web Developer, HostAdvice CTO While InMotion Hosting and GoDaddy offer many of the same types of hosting solutions, they really aren’t in the same league. InMotion consistently out ranks GoDaddy in every measurable category by both the team of HostAdvice experts, and actual customers who have reviewed the companies. While GoDaddy is a very well-known company, they seem to have forgotten that they need to put the quality of their hosting above the quality of their marketing campaign. For all of these reasons, and many others, declaring InMotion the winner in this comparison is a very easy decision. Winner! See plans and pricing www.inmotionhosting.com

More ey´ll keep you waiting around one hour just to start the chat with your, then they´ll waste another hour of your time until someone realises they don´t know how to handle the failure and they´ll tell you that they´ve done something, if that doesn´t work call in a few days time When you´ve done that a couple of times, of course you don´t buy it anymore and you want to talk to someone also, someone that knows something or can provide a solution, that´ll cost you another hour of waiting at least, once I could talk to another operator, he couldn´t do anything but he knew what he was talking about. He escalated to the team that really knows and they will send me an email, when the issue was fixed. I received the email, customer support also contacted me apologising and all that but the issue hasn´t been resolved even though the technical team said all was working fine. So I contacted them again, of course the first two hours wasted again (one waiting, one with the no clue guy) and I got the usual solution, call another day, I said I am not leaving until get a solution, supervisor, another operator... something but I´m tired of wasting my time. They hang up on me, just like that I am changing hosts Less
