Folks,
This is s a review of the webhost www.cybrhost.com for sugarcrm. By way of background, after a set of terrible experiences with three other web hosts, I settled on cybrhost for my miva merchant site. Over the last five years with cybrhost I've received timely and expert support from the same two people at cybrhost. So it was natural when we decided to establish a website and sugarcrm for our financial services consulting startup to turn to cybrhost.
This has been my experience with cybrhost and sugarcrm:
- we have been running one of the country's top 10 (in volume) retail wine websites on cybrhost for the last 5 years. Performance, availability and support have been stellar.
- cybrhost looked at the installation requirements for sugarcrm and felt we would be able to run the app on their hosted platform.
- I requested they install the neccessary php modules and provision a mysql database. Both were done in a blink of an eye.
- Install went smoothly though I did have to set file permissions as per the sugarcrm wiki.
- Performance of the platform on cybrhost is very, very fast.
- I installed a couple of after-market modules. Again, I had to change file permissions but both are up and running.
- I setup a qa environment with a seperate database. Worked perfectly.
My monthly hosting cost is $18/month. While I realize the cost is higher than other webhosts, think about the cost of downtime, slow performance and sitting on the phone with support people that don't really understand what they're doing. IMO, the speed, availability and support provided by cybrhost make it a great bargain.
regards,
jd
