Hostpoint Reviews

Hostpoint AG, founded in 2001 by Sandro Bertschinger, Markus Gebert, and Claudius Röllin in Rapperswil-Jona, Switzerland, has grown to become the country's largest web hosting provider and leading domain registrar. Initially focused on making website storage affordable and accessible, the company pioneered user-friendly server management software, developing its own Hostpoint Control Panel in 2007. Hostpoint offers a comprehensive suite of services including shared web hosting (with Apache and Nginx options), WordPress hosting, managed flex servers (supporting Node.js, Java, Ruby, Python, Redis, Memcached), domain registration (ICANN-accredited, managing over 1 million domains), e-mail hosting with cloud office features, website builder ('Sites'), and e-commerce solutions ('Webshop'). Their infrastructure is entirely based in Switzerland, featuring state-of-the-art, bank-certified data centers ensuring high security and stability for over 300,000 websites and 750,000 email accounts. Hostpoint primarily targets SMEs and private individuals in Switzerland, emphasizing ease of use, high-quality Swiss infrastructure, and exceptional customer support. A key unique selling point is their industry-leading, free customer support, available 7 days a week in four languages (German, French, Italian, English). The company remains 100% owner-operated.
