Long Time Customer, First Time Reviewer

We've been using dreamhost for about 11 years and have been really impressed with how low-maintenance it is to operate our website. In fact, things are so reliable, that I haven't had to open a support case until this week. Suffice it to say, dreamhost support is as great to work with as their main product. Our issue was resolved quite quickly, and our support lead was incredibly kind and helpful!

I've been happy with my Dreamhost…

I've been happy with my Dreamhost hosting for many years, but I'm especially happy with the technical help I receive. They do so much for me and communicate clearly about the issues, and they don't just shrug and leave me on my own when something's wrong. I just had a PHP upgrade go sideways and they helped me figure out what installed plugins were causing the failures. Couldn't be happier.

Almost a decade of satisfaction

Has it been 10 years? Definitely more than 8. Great thing about dreamhost was not the support but rather no need for support all these years. Everything ran as expected, almost 100% uptime, sufficient knowledge base and support.

Been a client for 8 years and never once I had a problem that didn't get sorted out. I've been always assisted in everything by their customer service- Incredibly knowledgeable and friendly people. Recommended!!!

I've been a customer for 15 years +++++

I've been a customer for 15 years. MANY times I've reported a problem that I couldn't solve. ALMOST every time, the staff has fixed the problem and told me how they did it, and what I could do next time. AND they did it with kindness and humor. Often fixing it themselves and documenting later. An amazing company.

Very Satisfied Client with Tech Support

Understanding tech but not being a tech, sometimes understanding the concept from knowing specifically what to do becomes confusing and frustrating. I had a problem, setting up my email, creating inboxes, etc. They came in within a day if that, fixed the issue themselves. Let me know and I was happily on my way!

Still going great at nearly 20 years

I’ve been a customer for going on two decades, and I’m fairly knowledgeable about things so mostly I handle it myself, but there’s always that one time every year or so I run into an unknown and to ask for help, like today. So I opened a ticket. Three hours ago.

Not only is my main problem solved, and it was weird and I could’ve tracked it down eventually, but it’d take a fair few days, but my other little ‘and this is also weird but unimportant’ thing was solved too. BAMMO! DONE.

The DreamHost Team is amazing!

The DreamHost Team is so amazing. Website was down to viewers and admin, and they took care of it with kindness and efficiency, disabled the plugins that interfered with the functionality of the websit, restoring it successfully in no time. Thank you DreamHost Team! You are the best in quality of service and kindness!!

A+ help from tech support

The team went above and beyond after my site was affected my malware. They cleaned it up ahead of schedule, and helped me get back up and running. They answered questions after their work had been completed to make sure I was 100% satisfied. I really appreciated their friendly, helpful approach!

I have been using Dreamhost for more…

I have been using Dreamhost for more than 10 years, and naturally I have encountered various problems during these 10 years and need to seek support from Dreamhost, but almost every issue can be solved within 24 hours, I am impressed by the timeliness and effectiveness of Dreamhost's support.

I'm completely new to site building so…

I'm completely new to site building so I've had quite a few hiccups along the way but the support team at DreamHost have been absolutely amazing. I've had to contact them quite a few times with issues (some hosting-related, and others having to do with Wordpress) and they've always been very responsive and super helpful in their explanations. They've definitely made an otherwise stressful experience a lot smoother.

Amazing Webhosting Company - Very Happy Thus Far

DreamHost is super easy to work with and they are so knowledgeable too. Their communication was impeccable as they kept me updated every step of the way. If I didn't understand a process they were eager to help me to gain insight into what they were doing and why. I recently moved my website to DreamHost and while I am still new to the company, I have really liked what I've seen and experienced. Thank you DreamHost team.

DreamHost Provides Excellent Service 😊

I have been with DreamHost for over ten years. They have excellent customer service. I recently had a problem that I had no idea about and Luis V. from DreamHost Support fixed it for me. I do not know anything about how websites work, so I rely on the professionalism I get from DreamHost. Recommended!

Great help and very patient…

Great help and very patient professionals. Keeping one continuous thread as I worked with multiple people was very helpful, and Abhay and Vishal were friendly and knowledgeable and made the experience very easy. They exemplify the customer service offered and are absolutely why I use DreamHost!

Easy access to a GR8 support team!

As a self taught web designer, I was confused about how to enable SSL certificates & get http to automatically load as https.

After requesting assistance with this, Gary from DreamHost Support set it up 4 me in a timely manner. Now all pages of the site I designed for my friend’s beauty salon have the desired padlocks. I am very grateful 4 Gary & the DreamHost Support Team. Keep up the good work! Nice to know you will help when I need it.

Slow shared hosting

As a 9 year customer, we found that out-sourcing of technical support and services at Dreamhost was a big loss for us. We also experienced slow site hosting for the past few years, which made us look else where for our hosting (we reached out for help many times, but was never solved). We ported our site to another host and experienced a speed increase of more than double out of the box. We really liked working with Dreamhost, but became frustrated in the lack of speed and extended support.

Excellent support

DreamHost support promptly addressed a SSL problem, explained the options, then made the necessary changes. Couldn’t have asked for better support.

Easy to use great hosting service.

Dreamhost always seems to be highly recommended online, so I thought I'd try out their unlimited plan to host a couple of wordpress sites and for testing. So far, I've been really happy with the ease of use and quick responses from the customer service. I was used to cpanel but the simplicity of Dreamhost dashboard means its, very simple to 1 click install WordPress or do more technical tasks also. Setting up email for a domain was also very simple.
