Noor KhanTheir customer support is outstanding, particularly for new businesses. The level of assistance I received from their representative was exceptional. Due to a recent stroke, I struggle with memory problems, but the customer service agent was incredibly patient, providing additional explanations and reviews when necessary. I gained insight into their extensive service offerings and how I could gradually establish my online presence. I'm highly content with both Imanila's products and their customer service, and I'm pleased to share my positive experience with others.James TagardaIn terms of full package, I recommend iManila.PH for having different services to offer. They have SEO, Web design and development that required for the boosting of your website. I am not yet using this hosting but it was highly recommended with my clients. I want to avail their E-commerce service in the future and hope to have best deal I ever have. Thank you.Hina AhmedImanila.ph has affordability and fast loading time allowing you to upgrade as your website grows, ensuring it can handle increased traffic, especially during peak time and resource demands. Its user-friendly interface appeals to newcomers, although I have loved their advanced traditional cPanel always available 24/7 with responsive customer support.Rehan KhanThe support receives a perfect 5-star rating for being consistently available and helpful.On the downside, the hpanel has a few drawbacks, earning it a 3-star rating. These drawbacks include outdated features and severe limitations on file upload sizes. I had hoped for better support for multisite functionality, especially since the new WordPress installation script allows for multisite installation from the start. Currently, I'm facing challenges transferring my sites from my previous hosting provider. FTP connectivity issues persist, even with assistance from the support team. Additionally, the file size restrictions make it difficult to upload my sites, and although I know I can modify the code to install multisite, I'd prefer a more straightforward process. Once these issues are resolved, I believe I'll have a more positive experience with the service.Asif zahoorI have been using Imanila for the last 1 year I have a very good experience with no lag time and very quick loading time also they have a responsive customer care team but I might say they are a bit non-technical and take much longer than usual to solve queries.The price range is very affordable, overall experience is good I recommend it.Zameer NomaniWhenever we face any problems or need help, their capable representatives promptly attend to our issues. They consistently offer support within an hour for every concern, and they exceed expectations to ensure we are fully content with their services. Unlike other providers, imanila delivers exceptional value for money through their wide range of hosting packages. While some web hosts limit the number of domains allowed, imanila offers ample bandwidth alongside their hosting plans.Kenny AlvisI have been using iManila hosting for a long time and they used to be a good hosting provider. However, things have changed since they moved from cpanel to their new site tools. As a result, I have lost emails for five businesses. Despite several requests for updates, their support team is available 24/7 but has not been helpful and has shown disrespect towards the issue.I would recommend avoiding iManila if you are in search of a new hosting company. I am also planning to find a more reliable business soon if iManila does not improve their services.Lorienz GalarpeiManila.ph hosting services are great and fast even though we just choosed the Shared Plan which is the basic plan, I built a wordpress site for a client of mine with several pages and blog posts in it which I suspect it would require a good amount of RAM and processor to make the website load fast and it did. It has 3000+ blog posts on the website and was continue adding more each week till to date and my client is happy.No viruse/malware attacks, very secured hosting cpanel service and very reliable server speed.Pricing is reasonable, a bit pricey but you'll get quality and reliable service. Also I want to mention that they have a great and responsive tech support which is available always when you have problem/issue with your website or cpanel hosting.Alex HalesThe imanila team provides excellent support and offers hassle-free refunds or upgrades. However, the speed of their servers is not sufficient for my needs, as my websites receive heavy traffic, resulting in slow loading times. For those with small websites and low traffic, imanila is the ideal choice, as they offer prompt assistance at every stage. If they could improve their speed to meet my expectations, I would have no reason to consider switching to another provider.Dycer ParaisoThe security is reliable and the price is not that high, good and responsive customer service. The support that they have is perfectly intact. When it comes to long business this hosting service has a good website performance. In Website Interface seems like too much red but can't affect with reliability. You can't appreciate if you look on reviews, try this, general impression will be amazing!Noel VillaOne of the local companies I tried because of the price. But after getting their service, I realized that every posted rates are just false advertising. I end up paying a lot, plus their billing team are not always online. I just wasted money here.John PardoI would say that Imanila should improve their customer service support. They do have live support/chat but appears to be in an offline status. When we have to contact their support, it takes almost 30 minutes for a support staff to answer.Though, the price of their plan in hosting may be a bit expensive than any other services offered locally but rest assured, that the plans they offer will suit your needs.In terms of their business packages, they do have a variety of option to choose from.One of the good thing about them is that they do have Website Back Up well simply as it recovers what is lost.But despite on their chat support, i would still recommend this hosting.
