Pros and Cons
Here are the pros and cons of using Colohouse as your hosting platform.
Positives
Robust enterprise-grade infrastructure with a massive global footprint following the strategic acquisition of Hivelocity and TurnKey Internet, providing superior network redundancy
Exceptional 24/7 human technical support with a proven track record of handling mission-critical server migrations and middle-of-the-night emergency deployments
Strict vetting process for new clients ensuring a 'clean' data center neighborhood free from scammers and spammers, which is a significant advantage for legitimate businesses
Offers a wide variety of infrastructure-agnostic solutions including bare metal, private cloud, and specialized colocation services under one corporate umbrella
Highly transparent communication from senior support technicians who frequently provide detailed root-cause analysis and educational guidance during troubleshooting
Proven stability for high-availability production workloads with 100 percent power and network uptime SLAs backed by Tier III data center facilities
Negatives
Rigorous manual verification process for all new accounts requiring scans of government IDs and business documentation, which can delay deployment for several days
Reports of unannounced and sudden cancellations of promotional cloud servers where users were refunded and sites taken offline without prior warning or explanation
Strict and non-prorated refund policy where payments are often final after the initial 30-day window regardless of remaining contract length
Complex and non-intuitive management dashboard that lacks basic consumer features like temporary URLs for pre-DNS migration testing
Legacy infrastructure issues in acquired segments where users report slow SSD I/O speeds and outdated RAM configurations on 'Bare Metal' plans
High administrative friction during corporate transitions where users report a lack of communication between the different brand divisions (e.g., TurnKey vs Colohouse)
