Amen Reviews

Amen, originally L'Agence des Médias Numériques, is a web hosting provider and domain registrar founded in France in 1999 by Patrick Chassany and Oleg Tscheltzoff. Initially focusing on the French market, particularly individuals, professionals, and small businesses, Amen offered low-cost domain registration and shared hosting solutions, leveraging cost-rationalization through automation and open-source software. Over the years, Amen expanded its services significantly to include Linux and Windows shared hosting, reseller hosting, WordPress hosting, VPS (Virtual Private Servers), dedicated servers, email hosting, website builders (like Simply Site), e-commerce platforms, and security solutions such as SSL certificates and SiteLock. The company targets a diverse audience, from individuals launching their first blog to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) requiring robust infrastructure. Amen has established a notable presence across Europe, operating localized websites and services in France (amen.fr), Portugal (amen.pt), and formerly the Netherlands (amen.nl, services terminated end of 2024). Its infrastructure includes SSD storage, use of control panels like Plesk and cPanel, and data centers, including a Tier 3+ facility in England. Amen has undergone several ownership changes, being acquired by VIA Net.Works in 2003, Claranet in 2005, and the Italian DADA Group (parent of Register.it) in 2008. Currently, Amen is part of the team.blue group, a major European player in the digital space. Unique selling points include its long history, comprehensive range of digital services, localized support in multiple languages, and focus on providing reliable solutions for European customers.
