Uptime & Reliability

History of Stable Hosting

The hosting with this company has been at or above 99.9% for a long time and it isn't likely to drop. They have only high quality data centers for your servers and they do a great job at keeping everything up and running nicely.  Their hardware is top of the line and they seem to do a great job at configuring it properly to ensure nothing goes wrong. Even their shared hosting solutions are configured well to help avoid slowness or other related issues.

Features

Excellent Choices for Hosting

As you browse through the Scope Hosts website you will see that they have a lot of different options to choose from.  No matter what level of hosting you need, the chances are you can find it here.  Starting off with shared hosting you can get it easily in their Netherlands data center. They have four different packages, all of which run solid state drives for speed and stability.  The amount of disk space and bandwidth you get is quite generous too.

When you move to their VPS section you will see that you can choose from either managed or unmanaged solutions. This is a nice option that most hosting companies don't really offer.  The VPS solutions have options for multiple cores and a generous amount of RAM (plus burstable options).  The prices are surprisingly low and you can get their VPS hosting located in the Netherlands, USA, Germany or Russia.

The dedicated servers can be located in the United States, Netherlands, Germany, Russia or Canada.  They have lots of different options to consider at this level so you can be sure to get exactly what you need without having to over pay.  They use high end servers that will meet all your needs.

Support

Excellent Tech support

The tech support team is very helpful and can get you up and running when you have any type of trouble.  They are available 24/7 and seem to do a great job at diagnosing problems.  Keep in mind that if you choose an unmanaged VPS or dedicated server you won't have access to tech support for anything but hardware or network issues.  The company also offers nice documentation and self-help materials for people who want to learn more about their hosting.

Pricing

Reasonable Prices

The prices with this company are right in line with what you would expect based on the level of service and features you are getting.  They are not the cheapest by any means, nor are they the most expensive. The shared hosting solutions start at just 2.99 Euro per month and go up from there to 8.99 depending on what you need.  They do have add on options like dedicated IP addresses that can make the price go up some.

VPS solutions start at 23.99 Euro per month for managed servers and make their way all the way up to 75.99.  If you choose an unmanaged server it will be somewhat less than this but then you are responsible for your own troubleshooting and things like that.

Prices for dedicated servers range anywhere from around 100 to over 1300 Euro per month depending on the level you choose.  They have dozens of different server options though so you can get one right at the price point you desire.

User Friendly

User Friendly

This company is dedicated to helping customers get a great hosting experience.  Their site is easy to navigate and use.  They have a lot of different hosting packages, which is nice in some ways since it lets you choose exactly what you want.  For some people, however, it may just be overwhelming or confusing.  Also, their dedicated servers can take 1-5 business days to get provisioned depending on the specs you choose, which isn't that great.
