A2 Hosting prieš eNOM 2020

er handling and care, regardless of Plan. You are talking to REAL HUMANS who are always polite and reply to your concerns with super personal touch!

unately my income is not big enough to continue use it.
I had no problems with downtime on A2Hosting and thanks to them for this, but there are many cons which makes me nervous.
1.When I add domain, it starts to run AutoSSL and until it does not assign SSL to your domain you can't do nothing with it. but it may take up to 24-72 hours and from their opinion it is normal, fortunately in my cases it did not take more then 6 hours.
Another Problem is if you use gmail address for example for sending mails from your site it will send SPF error message to your mail and will not send email. I had same problem and asked for help via chat and Support guy told me that he fixed it but problem still existed and then after a while ago I again contacted support and now I was told that I need to add spf record for all domains separately by myself.
I am sure that after some time I will find some other stupid things on this hosting, but I need to get used to it until my service ends :(
When I told that it only takes few minutes on other hostings to assign ssl this is what I got as answer: "I cannot comment other hosting, it is like you ask Volkswagen why Mercedes have something different, yet they are both just cars."
But from my oppinion other hostings sell cars which only need keys in it and it will take you anywhere, while A2Hosting sell you just car parts and you need first to build a car and only after you will be able to drive, but nowone tells you this when you pay for it, you only find out it later.
I would understand this on Dedicated servers, but shared servers mostly are purchased by non-tech people for their blogs or small business and they need some ready to go solutions, but they are forced to learn Cpanel features to make everything work and this is terrible.

num reseller in the past you had to pay $1,500 so I had PAID to be a platinum reseller)
Despite there being much cheaper alternatives to Enom for .com domains (EG: NameCheap, Godaddy, ResellerClub), I have alway stuck with Enom throughout the years.
I was then "thanked" for that loyalty by receiving an email on the 1st of May 2018 saying that my prices for .com domains will be increased 35% + on the 30th of May, not even a months notice.
Reference: https://help.enom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002746672?input_string=complaint+from+loyal+client+regarding+the+35+price+increase+coming+in+at+the+end+of+this+month.
The reason for the increase given in the email is that they will be implementing "significant changes" to their pricing model in an effort to establish more transparent pricing and reward resellers for high volume and growth. The irony in that statement is that whilst they consider it an "effort to provide transparence and reward", my impression is that they are trying to squeeze profits but disguise this with marketing jargon. Its literally a scene from Dilbert!
For example, I was paying $9.98 for .com domains and according to the notification, at the end of May this is increased to $13.50.
I have 350 domains so this increase takes over $1,000 a year DIRECTLY from my pocket and gives it, as PURE PROFIT to Enom which would not be absurd but for the fact that Enom is now owned by Tucows who offer their resellers .com domains for $12.
The sad thing is, that the only option I have would be to transfer the domains to someone like Godaddy who offer their .com domains for $8.95 or NameCheap who offer their domains for $9.92 but this of course require a significant amount of works and cost to me so there is not much I can do as you have me over a barrel as the saying goes and Enom knows it.
I appreciate a company has to make money but I think pushing aside those people that helped build that company is not very good form at all. Even google would not do something like that!
At the very least I would have expected my prices to be grandfathered in rather than being told that I need to pay an extra $1,000 a year for my domains starting within 30 days.
Really disgusting company.
!!!!!AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!
