Reliability

InMotion's network is based on the fast and reliable Linux operating system. Their data center is powered with high end Dell PowerEdge servers and huge RAID arrays. All of their servers are monitored 24/7/365 for any unusual activity and benchmarked continuously for performance. This allows them to immediately respond to short term issues and grow their systems optimally, keeping it fast and economical at all times. InMotion Hosting boasts a 99.9% uptime.

Price Value

InMotion Hosting is primarily a business host and they are slightly more expensive than some of the other hosting companies out there. We have found that their availability of technical support (they have very low hold times,) along with their reliability and an industry leading 90 day money back guarantee make the price difference well worth it. Their business class plans also include a free domain name, free privacy, a very large amount of disk space and high monthly transfer allowance. InMotion has also released an easy to use website builder which includes a large variety of templates, blogging software and ecommerce options.

Control Panel

InMotion Hosting offers the famous CPanel control panel interface, which is a very popular control panel. It's included for free not only on their shared web hosting, but also on their VPS and dedicated hosting as well. Some of its features are website statistics, search engine submissions, various forums / bulletin-boards, script implementation, database administration, easy access to email - including creating and managing all email accounts, and file & domain management. They also offer Fantastico for free on shared plans and at a nominal charge for VPS and dedicated hosting customers.

Customer Support

InMotion Hosting has a reputation for excellent customer service and technical support. One of the first things that you will notice about them is their very low hold time and the person on the other end of the phone is friendly and based in the United States (they do not outsource any part of their operations.) In addition to their 24/7 Toll-Free phone support, they also offer live chat support, online trouble ticket system and an extensive helpdesk which includes getting started guides, insightful flash tutorials and a knowledge base.

Summary

InMotion Hosting is rated as the # 4 web host, however, their excellent customer service ranks them as a top choice for Business Web Hosting customers. That, along with their high performance Dell PowerEdge servers, on-staff web design team and several scalable hosting solutions make them a uniquely high pick.
