FDC Servers focuses on providing high quality hosting for medium to large sized websites. They don’t have shared hosting options, but they do have some lower end VPS packages that will actually meet the needs of most entry level sites. Priced at just $9 per month, it may be worth it to get the added power of a VPS while still within the range most would expect for a high end shared hosting option.
The company has ten data centers around the world, with five of them being in the US. This helps to ensure you are able to have your sites hosted near your target audience, which is good for speed and reliability. In addition, you aren’t limited to just their pre-configured server builds. If you would like, they allow you to have a custom built solution that will meet your exact needs.
From what I can tell, the company is privately owned and has been doing business for a long time. They have a strong reputation for customer service, even if you just go with their entry level VPS plans. Overall, this seems to be a good company for those who are looking for just about any type of hosting.
When you look at the specs of the hosting packages that are provided by this company it seems that the reliability should be very stable. They don’t offer any obvious uptime guarantee, but the fact that they have so many data centers and other quality services should indicate that they don’t have much downtime.
Surprisingly, however, there were quite a few reports from current and former customers that they did experience unusually high amounts of downtime. It is hard to say for sure if these were valid complaints or customers who were just unhappy with the service, but it is never good to see these types of reports.
No matter which of their hosting packages you select, you will have access to a wide range of different features. Most of them are included in the general package, but you can opt to have others added as you need them. For example, you will have access to their powerful backbone connections, which are rated at 390 GBPS.
You also have unlimited data available at all levels. Even with custom servers, there is no set-up fee, which is nice.
In addition to these services, they also offer collocation options for companies that are looking for higher end solutions with virtually no downtime.
The support that is provided by FDC Servers is quite good, but unfortunately they don’t have any live chat or phone support available. Using their ticketing system, you will be able to get fairly rapid responses to most types of issues. There are also a variety of self-help options to choose from including forums and how-to documents.
For the most part, the services that are provided are right in line with the industry average. There are, however, some packages that are more affordable than you would expect. For example, most companies don’t have VPS systems that come in under $9 per month, which is quite impressive. The stats of the hosting aren’t as powerful as one might expect, but there are some significant advantages over shared hosting at a similar price, so it may make sense for some customers.
If you need higher end hosting services, but you are still on a budget, this is a great company to consider. They have all the great dedicated and VPS hosting services that you will want, but the prices are typically going to be lower than you would pay with other hosting companies.
