Chose IONOS Hosting
iPage is terrible. They don't even really have a proper cPanel and GoDaddy is kind of hard to navigate once you log in. The DNS settings are not obvious and the interface is clunky and old looking. By comparison, 1&1 provides all the features you'd need to manage your domains …

Godaddy users seem to have more challenges with connecting their websites to their domain and customer service.

Rackspace I find to be too pricey for the service they offer. Pagely is very much WordPress oriented. I've had downtime with both that I haven't experienced with 1&1.

Likelihood to Recommend
Reasonable pricing (SSL certificate for only $30! vs the usual $99), ease of use on the backend and/or dashboard, and reliable customer service, all make this a win in my book. And, of course, you can't beat the free private registration that comes with each domain purchase. I've been recommending 1&1 to all my clients for domain purchases for years.

Excellent customer service and support.Good self-service tools and modern security support. Overall highly satisfied with NameSilo as a domain registrar and would recommend them to anyone looking for a good domain registrar or hosting company. In a competitive space, they are one of the few leaders at the top.

Scalability
The scalability of the email solution far exceeds our needs and would be suitable for organizations not looking for an enterprise sized multipurpose solution (O365, Google Workspace, etc).
