User Testimonials
	Web Hosting on IBM Cloud	Liquid Web
Likelihood to Recommend	IBM No answers on this topic	Liquid Web Inc. Liquid Web is suitable for serious users who have high end web applications or critical business oriented websites. cPanel and WHM comes out of the box with almost every server you buy. And if you don't have time to manage your own server, Liquid Web will suit you well. Their support is awesome. They help beyond the scope of the support. I had to migrate almost 25 big sites to another Liquid Web server, the support guys made it so easy for me. Incentivized Kaushik Somaiya Owner Read full review
Pros	IBM No answers on this topic	Liquid Web Inc. Customer Service — Amazing support, if needed. Site Speed — Our website sped up by 50% just by moving our hosting to Liquid-Web. Knowledge — We've learned a lot as an organization by following the Liquid Web blog. Incentivized Lindsay Halsey Co-Founder Read full review
Cons	IBM No answers on this topic	Liquid Web Inc. The tutorial area is excellent, but perhaps they could add video tutorial. Chat conversations should be added automatically to the client portal. Incentivized Francisco Mosse Director Read full review
Alternatives Considered	IBM No answers on this topic	Liquid Web Inc. We evaluated Kinsta and WPEngine. Both offer great platforms but the lack of solid phone support and the substantial difference in server resource allocation made Liquid Web a clear winner.

Return on Investment	IBM No answers on this topic	Liquid Web Inc. Liquid-Web has made it easier for me to take my focus away from handling constant server issues to being able to focus on my actual job in managing our websites. While there may not be a concrete number for this scenario, being able to perform my tasks more efficiently definitely helps company growth in the long run.
