which do i choose? valcato, enhancedhost, or rcthost?

[funkyemodude]

i've looked around, and have narrowed my possibilities to valcato.net, enhancedhost.com, and rct host. they all offer what i want & need, but i really don't know anything about the backgrounds of the companies, or who is the best in support, reliablility, and so forth.

i figure someone out there has used their services... so who is the best of those 3?

thanks. :)

Note: purely speculation, never used any of them...
I'd ditch enhancedhost, merely on the basis that I don't like their face(s), and they're not hosting assured like valcato and rcthost are. I have contacted RCTHost with a small question and it was responded to in about 4-5 hours (guesstimate). I'm inclined towards rcthost because of their current special (1GB space, 10GB bw for $40/year) along with their standard stuff (unlim subdomains, mysql db's, etc). I don't know much about valcato, I wasn't very impressed by them...I dunno, a CMS as a hosting company's front page? =-/
FYI, generally RCTHost will put 400 accounts on a server, but it depends on the size of the sites, etc. When a server gets full, they get another one :) That's what I contacted them about :)

I'd go with Enhancedhost simply for the fact that they are the most reputable company in that list.

Why are you looking for another host when you are so happy with SBYweb :confused:

i have been with SBYweb for a little over 2 months now, and i am completely happy & satisfied. i love the IM support they offer, and they respond to support emails lickety split! i've only had at the most 20 minutes of downtime, but that was one day at around 1am or something; and it was due to a server switch, so i really don't count it against them. they've raised their prices since i've joined, but i see now that they aren't allowing new signups until sbyweb2 is unveiled.

i don't care what anyone else says.. i'm completely happy. i've been screwed before, and i really doubt i will be here. there is just too much committment and support for the company.

yeah, i thought someone might notice that. well, since then, i have registered a new domain for a youth group that needs to be up ASAP & if you look at sbyweb.net's hosting page or even their main page, you'll notice that their signups are down until december 26- which is when sbyweb2 is unveiled -- and i simply can't wait that long :)

hope that clears up any confusion, and yes, i decided to go with enhanced host.
