Advantage2You

Advantage2you hosting is not bad at all.

i have used almost all in india and many in usa - used to host 100 plus sites till 2004

We host with them for years and I think I can safely say that they are fine.

they have a good service staff - a very pro and no nonsense approach to customer support. would not dillay dally...call a spade a spade...but some good engineers/

Very competent - we had this java support for one of our applications and they came out with a solution within a day - not something that I got from any other hoster in india. plus their interavtive server support engrs are good...

i just hope they start their free hosting again, though - that was fun.

but I guess no one offers it now.

ofcourse, they do not give any leeway in case my renewals are overdue...

i can pardon that as they must be in business for money

would recommened any day.

We have used advantage2you web hosting service and our experience has been quite OK.

We have hosted 4-5 sites with them - over the past 2-3 years and we have never faced any issue. In fact their services are among the most cost effective and their support responses, which come in one working day's time, are reasonably professional. Ofcourse if you are looking for faster than one day's response time, you may want to look for it.

They spell out the support in advance - no support on holidays and support via email only...which is not bad as email leads to a good communication.

Would have loved if they offered tele support but for less than 100 rupees hosting, email support is just fine.

Their servers are very fast - on optical backbone or something like that.

One added advantage is that they can always offer a perfect upgrade roadmap. For example for one of our sites, we wanted a Java upgrade with MySQL database management system and they provided that on the same day of order... this was not bad... better than what I have got with a few US web hosting companies.

Hope the review is of some value for people looking for a hosting provided - as we spent a lot of time getting the right choice for our web sites.

http://www.advantage2you.com, in Gurgaon, Hayana, India, have really treated this customer extremely badly. Couple of years back we had purchased our domain, https://draftinganddetailing.com, for the purpose of sending bulk emails. My site was DELETED without any warning or complaint!! I reported the matter several times to Advantage2you, and they made it convenient not to reply (Not once but three emails!!!) My money for booking the domain was totally wasted as I had to quickly, in desperation, transfer my domain to another server so that at least I could receive the emails on the E-id I had advertised.

However, the damage had been done and I never got one reply to the advertisement. As far as Advantage2you is concerned, it did'nt bother them one bit to see their customer so hassled, or his company's reputation sullied. I learnt the hard way that the site had been DELETED, after I telephoned them to open my site for me to at least receive the responses, before I discontinue the use of the POP account. However, Rudhir Sharan (Advantage2you's interface with customer) had taken the extreme action of DELETING the site, without even informing, so there was no bail out mechanism.

I am at the receiving end this time, however, I will not allow my intelligence to be insulted, and will dissuade all in my contact list from using their services, because they have not had the courtesy to even acknowledge damage done to me, let alone compensate me for the blunder. On the contrary one Mr. Rudhir Sharan, who represents their after sales support, and interfaces with customers for the organisation, has threatened prosecuting me if I spread this word. He has even forwarded my complaint to legal@advantage2you.com instead of giving me a decent hearing. Imagine, legal action for airing a grievance!!!
