What users say..
We're rocking some excellent 
TrustPilot Reviews, and here's what some of our usersfriends say..
Excellent service, along with an even better customer service. 100% would recommend.
Products work as advertised. Priced what I would consider reasonably for what you get. Had one outage in a month but took them about ten minutes to resolve it so that's fine.
I've not had to use support personally but it seems to be responsive from what I've seen when other people ask for help.
You'd normally get worse service, and a worse product for the amount you're paying, so I can recommend.
I am absolutely stoked with my experience with ElfHosted! I paid for their Elf Wizard VIP Setup Experience, and it was worth every single penny.
My elf wizard, Waansin, was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was incredibly kind, caring, and clearly knows these products inside and out. He took the time to ensure everything was configured perfectly and got a totally awesome service up and running for me without any hassle.
The range of services ElfHosted offers is fantastic. The platform itself is fast, rock-solid stable, and delivers exactly what I want. What really gives me peace of mind is knowing how stellar their support is—I feel completely confident that if anything ever goes wrong, they will be right there to help me fix it.
If you are on the fence, definitely go for it. Huge thanks to Waansin and the team for the top-tier service!
Amazing service. So simple, I just works. Great way to support the broader community.
