Never experienced any problems with their servers and their tech support is great. I especially appreciate that they offer legacy hardware at such good price. Definitely one of the best server hosters... See more

can't be more dissatisfied with the service and support

I have a agile S3 server with ubuntu 26.04 LTS running on it. From the very first day my server started going offline for unknow reason(fresh ubuntu i haven't done anything) i started receiving Monitoring Alerts but the support staff did nothing even after i told them i did not caused this. Next 5 days i went through hell developing an application using live environment on my ubuntu server. my server faces these outages close to 4-5 times a day. Finally after getting fed up run those long test for hardware, cpu, SSD, RAM etc and provided logs to support team they haven't responded to my server issue. I am still waiting for their response wasting my time here while my server is out again and i can't do anything at all.

Hello Jake,
We're sincerely sorry for the repeated connectivity issues you've experienced with your server and for the lack of clear communication throughout this incident.
We understand how disruptive these outages have been to your work, especially after the time you've spent running diagnostics and sharing detailed technical information with our support team.
Our technicians are now carrying out on-site investigations in our datacenter to identify the cause of these interruptions. We will keep you informed of the findings and next steps through your existing support ticket.
We understand that your priority is a reliable, stable server, and we are treating this issue seriously.

Please avoid Ikoula

Please avoid Ikoula, this is the most
incompetent company that exists on the server space.
First of all the website - completely broken, randomly redirects to page full of errors (for example after paying for server/when checking the invoices)
Not only that, half of the Ikoula system is mixed english with french, or randomly the site redirects to french only URL.

Number 2 - the support. I have never seen worse people to deal with. I want to pay the invoices (which make absolutely no sense/dont relate to each other, and it is a problem when you buy more than 1 server from them). They dont even reply to you.

Number 3 - tech service . Prepare to wait a good while for your machine if you purchase it after 5pm cest - because people there leave the site and call it a day.

Number 4 - prices . This is the only good part about this company, although they dont understand they are not the only hoster in the world. If you approach them with a bigger order (such as multiple expensive machines) they are not willing to cooperate with you, rather throw u extra 10% off if u pay for 12months upfront (exactly same like the default discount)

Hello,

We have read your review carefully, and we regret that your experience with our services has been so disappointing.

Regarding our customer portal, we are aware that some parts of the interface can still present inconsistencies, particularly between the French and English versions. We are continuously rolling out improvements to enhance the user experience, and your feedback will be shared with the relevant teams.

Regarding billing, we understand that managing contracts and invoices can become complex when multiple servers and services are associated with the same customer account. If any charges or invoices appear unclear or inconsistent, our customer service team is available to review them with you and provide any necessary explanations.

You also mention a lack of response from our support team. This does not reflect the level of service we strive to provide. If some of your requests have gone unanswered, we would like to understand what happened so that we can investigate the situation.

As for server provisioning, delivery times may vary depending on the type of configuration ordered. Some services require technical checks or manual intervention before deployment, which may explain why an order placed later in the day is not provisioned immediately. Nevertheless, we are continuously working to reduce these delivery times as much as possible.

Finally, regarding our commercial conditions, our pricing is designed to remain competitive while ensuring infrastructure hosted in France, responsive technical support, and a high level of service quality. Requests for additional discounts on larger projects are assessed on a case-by-case basis, taking into account various technical and commercial considerations.

We remain at your disposal to discuss each of these points in detail. Please do not hesitate to contact our team, mentioning the reference to your Trustpilot review. This will allow us to review your case thoroughly and discuss it with you in a constructive manner.

We’re sorry to read your feedback.
Some of the points you mention (particularly regarding overall performance and support delays) do not reflect the experience of the vast majority of our customers, nor the standards we aim to deliver.
That said, issues such as a failed reinstall or control panel instability should not occur under normal conditions and are taken very seriously.
Our teams continuously work on improving performance, reliability and the overall user experience.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Good server but slow delivery.

Good server but slow delivery.
I’m really happy with the server performance now that it’s live, but the delivery process was a letdown. Despite the 2-hour guarantee, it took 3 days to get my server due to technical issues on the installation (ordered on friday 12:40, recieved it on monday 13:20).

Support was responsive but didn't provide much info over the weekend. I had to stay on top of them to finally get the issue resolved on Monday. No compensation or extension on my billing date was offered for the 72-hour delay. Great hardware, but the onboarding experience definitely has room for improvement.

Edit: The team at Ikoula gave a suitable solution. Thank you.

Thanks for your detailed review and for sticking with us.
It’s great to hear that the server performance is exactly what you were looking for. The delayed delivery was due to an uncommon technical issue during provisioning, which took longer than expected to fully resolve.
Once everything was back to normal, we made sure to apply a commercial gesture to your service. Your feedback is well noted and helps us improve the overall onboarding experience.
We appreciate your understanding.

UI needs a bit of simplification.

The interface is a big convoluted, takes too many clicks to get to where you want and can get a bit confusing with too many tabs, on another hand the customer support have been wonderful regarding technical issues.

That’s why we’re constantly improving it, with new evolutions coming soon to make things clearer and easier to use !

We sincerely regret the inconvenience you experienced and understand your frustration.
Following your report, our technical teams immediately initiated a series of thorough investigations. It was confirmed that a hardware issue was the cause of the incident. Although rare, this type of failure can unfortunately occur in any technical environment, despite all the precautions in place.
As soon as the issue was diagnosed, our teams replaced the faulty hardware, reinstalled a clean version of the system, and offered you a commercial gesture as compensation.
At Ikoula, we do everything possible to ensure the availability of your infrastructure, but the management of data and backups remains the responsibility of the server administrator, in accordance with our dedicated server policy. This is why we regularly emphasize the importance of having external backups to prevent any risk of data loss.
We remain at your disposal for any further assistance and thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
