Apollo Hosting has been in business since 1999. It is a privately owned company with over 30,000 customers worldwide.
One highlight of Apollo Hosting is that it offers an e-commerce package. This includes Miva Merchant software, Bronze Miva Support, free merchant account setup through Ecommerce Exchange, automated secure Certificate Installation and SSL secure server.
Apollo Hosting was one of the first companies to offer 24/7/365 live technical support chat and toll-free phone support, along with Total Solutions Hosting, which gives you all the tools you need to create a powerful presence on the Internet. Apollo Hosting has been shown to be a consistent performer.
Price Value
Apollo Hosting's plan is decent compared to its counterparts in the industry. Besides offering all of the basic features expected from a host, Apollo Hosting also offers several value-added features, including unlimited websites per account, advanced SPAM virus filtering by Postini, SpamGuard, Get Traffic Toolbox, and free sticky web content. Mind you, most good web hosts now offer similar features.
Reliability
Apollo Hosting has high speed connections and reliable servers at discounted prices that are custom built and designed for a 24/7 web serving environment. Apollo Hosting also offers a 30-day money back no risk guarantee and free technical support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Apollo's strong reputation is built on its 99.9% uptime rate, highly maintained equipment and featured-packed plans.
Control Panel
Depending on the plan you choose, Apollo Hosting uses three different but similar control panels: the virtual control panel, HSP control panel, and Plesk Control panel. We have had good feedback in terms of the ease-of-use of these control panels, as well as the support offered for the many features that Apollo Hosting provides.
Customer Support
Apollo Hosting provides very good customer support for web hosting. Support is easy to access through several methods, including live chat. Unlike many web hosting companies today, Apollo Hosting actually provides toll free support, although the customer relations team's performance falls below other top notch web hosting companies and could use some additional training.
