Tiaan StultingWeb4Africa, a lesser know hosting company in South Africa, has been around since 2002. They offer cheap, reliable hosting that starts at only R40pm and it includes a free SSL and domain and even gives you the option to pay via Bitcoin. I have only had a good experience with them and their server uptime and speed seem to be great and stable. You can manage your site easily via CPanel and they also have a 1 click WordPress install. The one thing I don’t like that much is their support is done via a ticketing system. They are quick to respond but sometimes one needs to rather phone for urgent assistance. Overall I am happy and can recommend them.ADEYINKA DAVID OGUNSEMOYINWhile working on a client from south Africa, we decided to make use of an hosting platform that is relative, a team member suggested Web4africa.com which we all think it's a great one, but we were baffled by the unprofessional set of customer support they have as a team. They are just a thin line from been a scammed hosting platform and it felt as though the payment we made for the hosting services was wasted because of course we have to migrate the website to another platform.Atwan NomaniI am highly satisfied with the hosting and server speed provided by web4africa through their Speedex package. The support is excellent as well. However, there is a minor issue during the migration process to a new site as the upload speed can be slow if done directly without using FTP. Despite that, the I/O Usage could be improved as it is currently at 6 MB/s, although this is not a daily concern. I am grateful for the exceptional service provided by web4africa.Muhammad YousufI had my client's website moved from other host to web4africa.com last year but unfortunately, we had to transfer it to Siteground after experiencing too much downtimes in different regions. Customer support didn't help to solve the issue. They weren't responsive at all. They don't respond over a live chat too. Pricing of the server plans are high as compared to rest of platforms. They don't provide free migration services while they have backups feature available which can be helpfulSean StaHad to cancel my services with web4africa due to inconsistent services and terrible support, they barely responded to my queries and my websites were down for a long period of time even after I had paid for unsuspension of the service, do not use them!Syed Muhammad AliI have been using web4africa for a time now and I have been really happy with the smooth working of websites. The speed and reliability of hosting services are really fine but they need to improve their slow customer support.Natalie Alice RoystonPros Very competitively priced compared to other hosting companies within South Africa.You can register your own personal domain, quickly and easily. There is a great and extensive list of available domain extensions to choose from.Web hosting packages are cheap, and with an annual pay cycle, you can also get a free domain.If you are an end users like me, setting up your website and hosting panel is easy, they offer cPanel and Plesk, which has a great user interface to people like me and for server admins!So it's easy to control and make changes to your site and hosting.It's great that they offer so many different payment options, You can also pay with Bitcoin!Speed and reliability is guaranteed, because, their data centers are situated on the national grid.Servers are monitored 24/7ConsOnline support was either too slow or non-exsistant, when I opened a ticket on the web, but there is an excellent help page should you have the time to read!Helpdesk is only available Monday to Friday during business hours.When I called, at least they answered the phone!!! But I did'nt feel that the person on the other side was that knowledgeable, I felt like I was talking and answering myself, because she was paraphrasing my questions.
