Great Service for the Price

I’ve been using HostSailor for over a year. I signed up during a promotion, so the price was very affordable, but the service has been excellent.

My server has had almost no downtime. Whenever there was maintenance, they informed me in advance by email, which was very professional.

Recently, I had a small issue and contacted support through a ticket. They responded quickly and resolved the problem fast.

Overall, I’m very satisfied and would recommend HostSailor for its reliability and value.

Top 1 of my favorite

Have been with a Mini Sailor since 2021 summer, I experienced up and down, most of the time steady sailing.
Rarely went down unless the inevitabilities stand in the way, but would eventually go up and back to normal route with even better condition, this feels surprisingly good.
4+ years outstanding experience tells me that my top 1 favorate VPS is found.
I feel your efforts behind, I see the respective progress we both made. Team Hostsailor, I thank you for your trustworthy service, you are the best.

Rent a cheap VPS a long time ago

Rent a cheap VPS a long time ago, company was brought by Host Sailor, contract and machine smoothly goes to new provider Host Sailor, and get a stack upgrade.
Nevertheless, I can do everything needed from the console even if I rent the cheapest contract

My experience with them has been great

My experience with them has been insanely good, I got one of their small VPS , but it has been performing well due to it's strong cpu , and the price to performance ratio has been good too. It has been a few months and I've never needed to contact support , premium provider, much recommended

Excellent and helpful customer service

I have been using HostSailor for a few years now. They offer both shared hosting and VPS. The customer service has always been very helpful and quick to respond, which is rare. There are multiple locations to choose from.

HostSailor is one of the best VPS…

HostSailor is one of the best VPS providers I've worked with. The speed of the servers is excellent, delays are minimal, websites and applications open quickly. I am very pleased with the stability: for several months of operation, there have never been any critical failures or long downtime. The technical support is really responsive — they help promptly, even on issues that I can't always formulate correctly myself. Excellent combination of price and quality.

This ship is steady and safe

One of the better companies in Hosting business, their server are super stable, network is fast and support is great (Opened 2 tickets which were answered pretty fast.). This is my 2nd year with them and i'm planing to continue to use them. Currently have 2 beasts one in Netherlands and one in LA which performs better than expected. Thanks to HostSailor for that.

Good value for money

Since many years, Hostsailor is my hosting provider for my website and multiple services and I'm very happy with it. All my services are Docker based and work well with their KVM Sailor for my low traffic needs.

5‑Star Review for HostSailor

5‑Star Review for HostSailor

I’ve been using HostSailor for production and staging infrastructure for the past year and have been consistently impressed — they deliver excellent performance, transparent pricing, and responsive support.
What I use it for: mixed workload (small e‑commerce sites, CI runners, and staging environments) across VPS and occasional dedicated nodes.
Performance & reliability: NVMe/SSD-backed instances and well‑peered datacenters (EU + US) produced noticeably faster page loads and stable uptime for our traffic profile. Network latency and disk I/O were consistently better than our previous provider.
Value & pricing: their rates are highly competitive with no surprise fees. The billing matched quoted plans exactly, making forecasting simple. Flexible payment options (including crypto) were a plus for our accounting needs.
Security & tooling: 20 Gbps DDoS protection included, free SSL, and modern control panels made deployment and basic hardening straightforward. Backup options and snapshot support fit our recovery goals.
Support & operations: 24/7 support responded quickly and effectively when we needed help (SSL and DNS issues resolved the same day). Technical staff were knowledgeable and provided clear, actionable guidance.
UX & onboarding: account setup and instance provisioning were fast. The control panel is utilitarian but functional; advanced tasks required some CLI work, which suited our devops workflows.
Drawbacks (minor): control panel design feels slightly dated and some paid add‑ons (advanced backups) add cost if you need higher retention — but these are transparent up front.
Outcome: reliable, cost‑effective hosting that scales well for small to medium workloads. For teams that want strong performance, simple pricing, and solid support without enterprise pricing overhead, HostSailor is an excellent choice.
Rating: 5/5 — highly recommended.

So far so good

I have been with HostSailor for a few months hosting a small phpbb forum. I chose the basic Leviathan Shared Hosting in the Netherlands since my site is small. Uptime and customer service is good with responses usually within a day. HostSailor also accepts many forms of payment including Paypal and various Cryptocurrencies. Hosting comes with a cPanel and a free SSL certificate so you get the secure https in your url.

I first learned about HostSailor before…

I first learned about HostSailor before last year's Black Friday. I tentatively purchased a VPS and was surprised to find that its CPU performance was unexpectedly better compared to similarly priced products from most other providers. Since then, I’ve been hosting a website on it, and the stability has been excellent. I’m really looking forward to the upcoming Black Friday! If you're looking for a high-performance and stable VPS, you should definitely check out HostSailor.

Some of HostSailor’s promo VPS are absolute tiny powerhouses. You’re looking at roughly 200 Geekbench 5 points per $1, with an $11 VPS hitting around 2,000 points. The crazy part? The scores barely drop even after a year.

The performance is one of the best vps provider I've ever seen. It is so stable though the price is not high, out of my expectations. I will continue to use and buy new vpses, especially in the comming Black Friday
