Canhost Reviews

Canhost Inc. is a Canadian-owned and operated Internet Service Provider (ISP) and data center operator headquartered in Kelowna, British Columbia. Founded over 25 years ago (sources mention 16, 19, and 25 years, suggesting establishment between approximately 1999 and 2009, with 1999 being explicitly stated for domain registration expertise), Canhost prides itself on providing all services from its own Canadian facilities, staffed entirely by in-house personnel, ensuring compliance with Canadian privacy laws. They were among the first registrars to offer .ca domain names. Canhost caters to both individuals and businesses, offering a comprehensive suite of hosting solutions including Linux (cPanel) and Windows (Plesk) shared hosting, reseller hosting, email hosting, Virtual Private Servers (VPS) for Linux and Windows, dedicated servers, managed hosting, and colocation services. Additionally, they provide domain registration, SSL certificates, cloud backups (including Veeam), remote system monitoring, and support for various CMS platforms like WordPress. Their infrastructure, located in Kelowna, benefits from geological stability and utilizes eco-friendly hydroelectric power. Unique selling points include their strong Canadian focus, over two decades of experience, operating their own data centers, 24/7 customer support by Canadian staff, and offering both cPanel and Plesk control panels.
