Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 348 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the exceptional customer service, highlighting the staff's helpfulness, professionalism, and quick response times. Many appreciate the personalized approach and the ability to speak with real people who are patient, listen, and resolve problems efficiently. The service itself is frequently described as excellent, reliable, and offering great choices to suit various user needs, with many noting the smooth onboarding and migration processes. However, some customers also noted issues with the initial handling of calls, with one reviewer experiencing a dismissive and unhelpful advisor. Additionally, a few people were dissatisfied with the verification process for purchasing hosting, finding it overly intrusive and comparable to a mortgage application. A small number of reviewers also reported experiencing daily outages and unreliable service, which contradicted the company's advertised uptime.

Utterly reliable and professional, with excellent support

I have been using Krystal for nearly ten years now, and I don't want my 10th anniversary to pass without thanking them for their outstanding support over that time. I spent weeks carefully selecting the right supplier, and couldn't be more happy with my decision. The Managed VPS has excellent uptime and the support team are remarkably quick and helpful. Easy 5 * review.

I am thoroughly impressed with Krystal

I am thoroughly impressed with Krystal. I have several websites and domains hosted with them, for several years now. Their customer service is excellent, they have actual humans available to assist. I specifically chose Krystal for their high standard of service, as well as their ethical stances like using 100% renewable electricity, being a living wage employer, B-Corp certified, and signing up to the Menopause Workplace Pledge. I’m genuinely impressed by this company and happy to know I’m supporting a company that is doing business responsibly and thoughtfully. I will be a customer for life!

Been with this hosting company for over…

Been with this hosting company for over 10 years. Before used another big name from the states. The difference is undeniable. These guys are ace. Never any issues or concerns. Very helpful and caring team and the company itself sustainability responsible.

Krystal customer support is top-rate

I've been a client of Krystal's for about 13 years, and their services and offerings just get better and better. They supported me through a client launch earlier this week (with issues on the client side, out of my control) and my main business domain transfer today - always with clarity, solid support and friendliness. Their customer service is 5*, their prices are competitive and no query is too small.

First class migration

Signed up to their service, contacted the migration team and everything was taken care of. Even the little problems that came with a new host were solved quickly with no fuss. Fantastic service.

Krystal Support is the reason why I choose Krystal.

Krystal Support is the reason why I recommend Krystal to all of my new clients.

Srsly. I started with a few clients on Purplecloud, which Krystal eventually took over. There were some glitches during the changeover (client accounts getting mixed up etc) which involved Simon Blackler spending time on the phone with me until we got it sorted.
All problems which are entirely to be expected within such a task, but handled so well by Krystal.

Eventually we got it sorted, and I've continued to recommend Krystal to all my new clients ever since.

Today was no different. I registered a domain and spelled my own email address wrong :)
So thank you Daniel.
As always, excellent service.

Best company ever

Best company ever, technical support is always professional prompt and fantastic beyond any other company I’ve ever dealt with in my 50 odd years. Why isn’t everyone using Krystal?

Reliable service, real savings

Precise, competent, and reliable service. The hosting migration and ongoing management were handled with real attention to detail, with nothing left to chance. Fast turnaround, clear communication, and effective problem-solving. Solid technical infrastructure and responsive support. Concrete outcome: improved performance and reduced costs.
