I could not disagree more with the praise of Enterhost above. I have three accounts with them and I have received horrible support. One quick example:

Their mail servers have been blacklisted on SORBS since 2.13.04. When I asked their technical team on 2.16.04 why my mail seemed to not be getting to the people I was sending it to, they said they had no idea. I sent several emails to them about it.

After a month of investigating another ISP finally found that Enterhost mail servers were listed on SORBS. I told Enterhost about this and they responded, with – oh yeah, we have known that all along. They did not even admit it until AFTER I pointed it out to them.

When I complained about this, they said, if you don’t like it, go someplace else. It is hard for me to believe how much they do not care about customer service. I am currently looking for a better ColdFusion web hosting provider. I will check out the two mentioned above. But I would not recommend Enterhost to anyone.

I was like you guys a few months ago, and I stumbled upon enterhost.com. These guys have been great and they have given me better support than both crystalTech and MediaTemple. Plus their hosting packages with SQL Server were very reasonably priced. Check the out.

This blog is on a server that is co-located at datapipe.net. I’m not sure how pricey they are for shared coldfusion hosting, but their network and service has been excellent for the past 2 years.

I’ve been using CrystalTech for a few years – they’re great!

I recently moved us over to Crystal Tech and I’m very happy with the service and support. Great company and well worth the few extra bucks.

Hmm… not good… I also use MT as my hosting company, but am now considering to drop ‘em. Just stumpled upon http://www.netkeepers.ca (they host gmodeler, for example), anybody familiar with their service? Seems almost too cheap.
