Netports Reviews

Netports Pty Ltd is a 100% Australian-owned and operated web hosting infrastructure provider, founded by Peter Thwaites in 2000. Operating primarily out of Brisbane and Cooloola Cove, with data centers in Sydney and Brisbane (Equinix), Netports positions itself as a premium, small-footprint provider catering to the Australian retail and wholesale sectors. They offer a range of hosting solutions, including shared cPanel web hosting, reseller hosting, Virtual Private Servers (VPS), semi-dedicated (hybrid) servers, and fully managed dedicated servers. A key differentiator is their inclusion of full server management and 24/7 pro-active monitoring with all services, which is often an extra cost elsewhere. They emphasize personalized, Australian-based support (available via phone and email) and reliable infrastructure, specifically noting their use of enterprise-class dedicated servers rather than VPS for their shared and reseller hosting plans. Netports targets Australian businesses, web developers, and individuals seeking high-quality, reliable hosting with strong local support, deliberately maintaining a modest size to ensure service quality and operational advantages.
