HostGator for email, domain and website hosting--delightful, 100% satisfied! Have always had ample capacity for company email needs, features work well. I have used it off and on for several organizations since 2011. HostGator website building is fairly straightforward, although I wouldn't recommend it for first-time web designing. The pluses on the HostGator website builder: great-looking themes, adequate webpage capacity, really cool scrolling capabilities, which trends well now. Easier than building a WordPress website from scratch, which can also be done for free in HostGator. I'd say it's limited compared to feature-rich WP, but it designs as nicely as Wix.

Actually, from a software engineer's point of view, JDK is nothing fancy to think of / talk about. It's just there & it works. Until he/she has to set up a project from scratch, together with the build tool, a JDK has to be chosen. Also, when doing deployment work, having a reliable, readily available JDK to install to target systems is a blessing. Still, Oracle could have done a better job supporting OpenJDK, especially for commercial usage.

The pricing is a big feature for this hosting company
Every three years when the hosting contract is coming to an end, they offer a reduced fee to upgrade your server plan, which is more cost effective than renewing at the regular rate for whatever plan you're currently using.
The customer service workers are professional and friendly.

Because we have in house technical support to compensate the lack of quality HostGator tech support, and because the price continues to be affordable the business is likely to continue using HostGator. They provide what the business needs and we have in house support to maintain it.
While you will get support from HostGator, it seems to be a different level from 8-10 years ago. It may take 15-20 minutes to get someone on chat, and unless you follow up, I've found followup email support to take a couple of days. If you stick with it, though, you will get support, and I've never had a problem they couldn't help with.

I prefer HostGator over GoDaddy. HostGator does have better and more reliable customer support, and the user interface and user experience are overall much more friendly and easier to use. GoDaddy does have downtime associated with their hosting in my experience, but I have not experienced that with HostGator.

OpenJDK is comparable to Oracle Java SE in most cases and you get away with significantly lower costs. Oracle Java SE have some advantages in performance on some native platforms but in most cases the OpenJDK performance is similar or at least good enough.
