55 reviews of Netfirms
Netfirms hosting is the worst by far of any web hosts. Netfirms SQL databases crash constantly, Netfirms uptime this year (2010) has been around 95%. Netfirms has cost me thousands in revenue! I'm saying goodbye to Netfirms hosting shortly, it's awful.

I have had Netfirms now for 4 years with multiple domains. Their uptime lately with database and web is the worst I have seen. I am finally dumping them (so glad!) and switching all of my domains to a different host. Nerfirms="worst web host ever".

I have been with netfirms for years. Customer support is now absolutely lousy. They never reply to support emails and will leave you on hold for hours . I have been unable to publish my site for days. Nobody cares. They don't deserve customers

Terrible speed with joomla and wordpress. Costumer support is very bad. I called them to complain about the speed of my website, they told me to change my DNS server, i didn't work, speed is still very slow. Anyway, I will not renew my annual plan.

Re. Advantage plan, great cPanel, superb online manual (answer you everything!) better than their CS, always uptimes!
Grid hosting has less TOS's restriction than those shared host companies. (e.g. file sharing OK).
Loading speed is fair only!!

I'm dumping them. After recently confirming for myself that upwards of 30% of downloads of my software product were incomplete, I came to the conclusion that this is unacceptable from a business standpoint.

I am a professional website designer and recommend all of my new clients that use Netfirms to transfer to another host - GoDaddy. Netfirms has had email problems for at least 2 years and SQL problems for at least 2 years - intermittent 500 errors.

Wishing I hadn't! I considered dreamhost, but Netfirms had a "promo" that gave me their "advantage hosting" for a good price. Since then I've missed countless emails with their unreliable email forwarding. Cant get the MX records to change either!!! BAD!
