Late 2003 to April 28 2004.

So after finding a nice host previously then turned very soul a few months later down the track. Here is a good impression.

I heard that myacen.com was very good and recommended so I did my own forum search to see if it was the case.

Guess now 12 hours passed my signup, I have received all account information was ready to go. I uploaded phpnuke and got my site up after being down 3 days after a move from a previous host, the speed was very fast even though im in Australia compared to my last host. Support was excellence, reply with 3 hours wasn’t uncommon at all – I signed up when they only had like 2-3 servers and now they have about 7 servers of customers, they expanded into reselling and solidinternet.com which is a leaf of myacen.com, cheaper plans but no helpdesk support and only forum based support.

After such growth you would think they would turn into a company such as my last review about imhosted.com and start to leave their good service in the dark age. To my surprise support has stayed the same and even better is when they upgraded their new ticket support, much better appearance and it came with a interface where you could see invoices due and upcoming ones on nice calendar.

Robert and Carl were the main common support staff (Robert being the owner). Uptime has always been of 55 days+, you could always depend on these guys to help you with things – they installed such feathers to the server on request and work with the customers to ensure everything is working right and every one is happy.

I even signed up for another account because I was starting a hobbyist aquarium related forum site; I wasn’t just a customer number anymore. I was a name, my account was activated 10mins after singing up because I was an existing member that had account before and they didn’t need me to prove so with the extra credit card security checks.

I love these guys but sadly I knew this day was coming (yesterday) that I finally cancel one of my accounts with them to move my site over to a dedicated server. I still have another account with them which won’t be moved over till later or use this as a backup as I can trust the uptime of company.

My cancellation was sent in this afternoon, wow I received a cancellation confirmation 20mins later and a message asking me for feed back, wishing me luck and hope I enjoyed my stay with them. I’m very glad I used them.

I give these guys 110% for Uptime! Customer service! And everything a user could want in a host. Great stuff.
