Hosting providers for Sugarcrm

[albertvn]

Hi,

I have been using Godaddy share hosting for many years and recently I installed the SugarCrm on this hosting. However, SugarCrm will not work properly because this hosting does not support IMAP. They suggested me to use Virtual dedicated or dedicated servers. But I have to migrate to all information stored on the share hosting to the new server myself. This is truly a hassle for web novice like me. So I am looking for your advice about hosting providers which can do better than Godaddy.
Do you know where I can have a comparision chart of all hosting providers? I saw the website sometimes in the past but I forgot the address now.
Is there any hosting provider which specializes in installing the SugarCrm?


I would like to thank you in advance for your kind help and hope to hear from you soon.

Try http://www.hostgator.com/. Works good with SugarCRM.

I would second the comments on HostGator.

Thank you very much for your advice. Is there anyone used Hatchling plan offered on their website (http://www.hostgator.com/shared.shtml) for SugarCRM? What plan do you recommend?

I talked to one of their sales representatives and he made sure that I can install and use SugarCRM with all plans there including the Hatchling. However, I was wondering why other providers such as Godaddy or Inmotion do not support SugarCRM on their shared hosting while the Hostgator supports this? Are they lying?

I am looking forward to hear your advice soon.

I use the Hatchling one for 3 different installs I interact with. A client I've worked with before also uses Hostgator (not sure if hatchling) and is quite happy with it.

We have been using SiteGround (https://www.siteground.com/) for over three years and are very happy with them. They host our website (Joomla 1.5.x), Media Wiki (internal documentation), and now Sugar CRM. They are Linux/Apache based and use CPanel. They also offer shell access.

They currently have an extended special offer running - I think it's US $10.00 for a year - unlimited everything.

Thanks for your help!
I decided to use Hostgator (www.hostgator.com) and after using one month, I am quite satisfied. They support SugarCRM for any hosting plan and the thing that I like most is that they support 24 hours by chat online. All of their plans offer unlimited space and they also offer many beautiful templates so I can customize them.
