User experience
Our Web Hosting Pad test site showed good response and uptimes.
...
WebHostingPad is a standard cPanel 11 host. There is a little bit of wasted white space in the panel skin, but that is definitely not any major issue.
Only a single concurrent FTP connection is possible. This is annoying if you want to update your site often with large amounts of files. You will not be able to parallelize uploads.
Customer satisfaction
WebHostingPad is a fairly recent hosting company growing very fast due to word of mouth by their satisfied customers.
Technical specs
WebHostingPad custom build their own servers. Each web server is a dual Xeon server with 8GB of system RAM. Furthermore, the shared web hosting service is delivered from a load-balanced cluster of servers and files are served from a Netapp network attached storage device. This ensures high availability and consistent performance for all user accounts.
- MySQL 5.0.45 - Up to date
- PHP 5.2.45 - Up to date
- UTF-8 and mbstring: supported
Overall, the platform is state of the art.
