Verdict : I switched to Hurricane Electric after Viaweb crashed & burned. I wanted a simple Unix-based web host where I could do admin and layout via typical Unix tools, and for that they've been great. The few times I've needed tech support they've been very responsive. I've had zero downtime.

Verdict : I have had Hurricane Electric for a while and have never had a problem. The only thing I don't like is that they don't offer Ruby or Ruby on Rails with there current hosting plan. Over all I highly recommend it.

Verdict : I have had Hurricane Electric (he.net) for many years and in many respects really like them. For one thing, they have rock-solid reliability, and after some experiences with a discount resell host, I am appreciating that more than ever.

But there's only one review of HE and so I think it's important to add to that and flesh out what they're really good at and what they're not really good at.

HE is *really* good, I suspect, at providing rock-solid reliability for their super-subscribers who are technically savvy. But they are *not* as competitive for shared web hosts. HE does not provide, for instance, web management panels like cpanel or auto-installs like fantastico. This is not really a problem for the web-savvy client. But, they also don't provide features like multiple ftp accounts or subdomain names. And, they're not priced competitively for the shared webhosting market. The non-competitive pricing wouldn't be a problem, because they are incredibly reliable, *if* they had competitive services. But the combination of lacking both competitive pricing and competitive services is really deadly for the shared webhosting market.

For other services--colo or dedicated servers -- I suspect HE is fantastic.

Verdict : I've used them for several years not and they have been quite reliable. Reasonably priced with a full linux shell account, database access and web languages such as PHP.

On the rare occasion where I've had a problem with some aspect of service, they have responded promptly and assisted me in resolving it to my satisfaction quite quickly.

I HIGHLY recommend them
