 DreamHost is a budget host who have designed their hosting control panel. They have been running since 1997 and are one of the larger hosts out there. They also now offer managed dedicated hosting. It's hard to believe that they've already grown to over 300 servers (each with over 40 times the processing power of Destro), a state of the art data center, and a full time staff of 25. Even though they now average more new customers per day than signed up total in they first three months of business, they've always made it their number one priority to deal with every client as a human being and as a friend. They like to think that that, more than anything else, is the real reason for our current success.

Positive Experience
Written by Carlos, on 09-03-2007 16:30
My host quest began by compiling a list of features i deemed important to my needs. This boiled down to: reliability (uptime), storage space, cost, and customer service quality/options. By process of elimination i narrowed the qualifiers down to three: hostmonster, servage, and dreamhost. 
 
 
The next step i took was to email each and ask fairly mundane questions to guage their knowledge and response time. Results were as follows: 
1. Servage – Never responded. 
2. Hostmonster – Responded in 3 days with one wrong answer. 
3. Dreamhost – Responded in 10 minutes with all questions answered correctly. 
As you can see, it was pretty much a no-brainer. 
 
 
So, as of 10-10-06 i became a dreamhost client with a 1 year plan. 
 
 
Up to this point, i have no complaints. Had to contact customer service once for a minor glitch which was solved promptly. Other than that, performance has been quite good. According to host-tracker, my uptime is 99.12% on their fanta server. All in all, a positive experience for me.
