Who do you like for hosting services in Canada?
Looking to migrate my domains, email and webhosting homward.
I love opalstack but they arent Canadian.
Also looking to replace Onedrive with Nextcloud. Need 1TB to start.
Who all do you like?
Web Hosting Canada is pretty good...have a few sites there:
...their support is a little slack these days.
OVH, they're French but they have a datacenter in Beauharnois on the south shore of Montreal literally meters from a hydro dam.
I use CanSpace for my domain registration and DNS. They also offer hosting but I haven't used it.
EasyDNS is Canadian based out of Ontario. I only use them for email and dns personally but they do web hosting also.
For dedicated servers, GTHost has been excellent. At work, we deal with more than a dozen similar vendors globally and GTHost is near the top. I would put them ahead of OVH.
What you're asking for is like 3 different questions:
A small business might use the same company for all 3 of these, but if you work in tech or are at a larger company, you may be interested in 3 different answers for these because they're all different specializations.
You are correct. My current hosting provider does email, web hosting, and dns, but is not a registrar. I have my domains elsewhere and am inclined to keep them separate. Dont keep all your eggs in one basket type of thing.
Occasionally I will lab something in html, php, python and whatever database. But my actual web hosting needs are pretty minimal. So email and I'd like to try out Nextcloud again if I can find something with economical storage.
All the options are kinda mid, I used to like OVH but they started price gouging for support since 2019 ish.
WHC is okay but I wouldn’t trust it with a serious setup. When a support response is needed it takes days not hours for any knowledgeable response.
