I had a problem setting up my new email accounts. I worked with the AI chat "person" for a while and that was pretty good. However, there was one issue that was unresolved so it was turned over to a Technical Support Expert. Wow!
Albert Einstein once said, "If you can't explain it simply you don't understand it well enough."
Well, WHC obviously has people who DO understand it well enough! I'm very grateful and highly impressed with the technical support operation at this company. Best I've ever encountered!

Issue fixed within minutes

Nelly was able to fix my issue within minutes so that I could set up my new email. I'm not fond of the chatbot feature, as it rarely solves my problem, but the human tech support at WHC is stellar. There's something to be said for the human touch!
Thanks, Nelly! You're the best!

A huge thank-you to Stephan

I want to give a huge thank-you to Stephan from WHC Support for his outstanding patience and professionalism. I had to attempt uninstalling and reinstalling my WordPress theme multiple times, which naturally became a long process, but Stephan never once showed frustration or irritation. Instead, he stayed calm, supportive, and genuinely helpful throughout every step.

He guided me clearly, reassured me when things got complicated, and made a stressful situation feel manageable. Support like this is rare, and I truly appreciate the time and care he provided.

Thank you, Stephan, for going above and beyond. Your service made a real difference today.

Excellent technical support

Been with them for 4 or 5 years for website hosting services (cloudserver plan). Never had a technical issue. Since I'm not an expert at webhosting and cpanel, I often need help to setup or upgrade different things (DNS, new domain names, SSL, etc.), and their technical support has always been very proactive and professional. Recommended !

WHC is the best web hoster I've ever dealt with, and I've dealt with several. Servers are rarely if ever down in my memory. Support for technical issues is stellar: authoritative answers in a day or two. No fiddling around wasting time with an AI bot who points you to documentation. And they're friendly and personable. 5 stars.

We have switched our website to a Canadian Host for a number of reasons and chose WHC Canada. This involved a total rebuild of the site and moving to WordPress.

The support from WHC during the switchover process was outstanding and I am pleased to recommend them and their support staff! Thanks!
