If you're the world's fifth largest web hosting company, it must be for some reason. From what we've seen, the explanation might be as simple as quality web hosting, at very reasonable prices.
At Ipower.com, you'll find most web hosting services available, as the basic shared hosting, the virtual and the dedicated servers, a website building tool and search marketing features. Ipower turns to both the private customer and the medium-sized business owners, and all the clients in between, and offers a large choice of different website hosting and server plans. This is very convenient, as it means that you can remain with the same host as your website grows.
Ipower offers three shared hosting plans, which compare very well with their competitors' deals. The most basic plan is priced as low as $3.95/month, and includes 5 GB of storage and 250 GB of bandwidth. With the top hosting plan, at $12.95, you get 400 GB of storage and unlimited bandwidth, which ranks Ipower very close to the top when it comes to value for your money.
Ipower somewhat focuses on their dedicated servers, with 12 different plans of all sizes. The heaviest plan offers a massive 3.5 TB of bandwidth! The plans are all available with either Windows or Linux, include free server reboots, and an uptime of 99.9% is guaranteed.
According to our testing, the support is very reliable, and can be reached at 24/7 through live chat or a toll-free phone number. At the site, you'll also find some clever flash tutorials, to help you along.
Ipower provides their web hosting services to over 700 000 customers from 150 countries, which makes them the fifth largest web hosting company worldwide. The company employs more than 250 people, and operates from Los Angeles, CA and Phoenix, AZ.

Rob S recommends Ipower
I have been using Netfirms and ipower VPS hosting for some
years now and I have referred many clients to them over this
period. My main issue with the service is after hours
support. It is virtually non existent. Their management
needs to take a hard look at whomever they are contracting
this service to. I started a Live Chat session at 7 pm and
by 9:30 am the next morning it was still waiting. This is
not the first time this has happened. The live phone support
is no better. After waiting for about 1 hour, I will be
disconnected.
The quality of the staff as of late seems to be very junior.
I was having an issue with... Read more

My company uses Ipower for website and email hosting. We
have used their services since 2005. Over the past year the
services has been declining.
Ipower is an inexpensive website host. It is a very basic
web host with little to no advanced capabilities. Up-time is
as promised on the website and this is a huge benefit.
It is a benefit because their customer support is abysmal.
As is typical when you call you will get a tier 1 support.
However, if you need to get support that can't be handled at
tier 1, you have to use their support console. The tier 1
will escalate the ticket to tier 2 and you will receive a
written response to your... Read more

I never face technical issues but sometimes a little 404
error page issue which happens rarely.
Pros & Cons in my experience with them:
Pros:
- Best hosting at cheapest price
- Nice customer service
Cons:
- Customer chat executive sometimes convert your issue to
support ticket, So we have to wait for an hour sometimes.
BTW, I am satisfied with them.

David recommends Ipower
I have used iPower since 2006 and can remember only one brief period of downtime. Support has always been good (helpful and, importantly, willing to help). I have found it easy to add websites and features. Plenty of flexiibility. Good virus protection for email and intuitive control panels make iPower work for me.

David Cooley does not recommend Ipower
After using ipower since 2008, we have finally become fed up to the point of no return in 2011. When we purchased our service with ipower in 2008 we were offered every feature in the world it felt like. And over the last couple years, about every other month another feature is removed from their list of features.
Ipower does not support cURL as well as alot of other basic needs such as Cron Jobs. The uptime of our server was rarely over 20%. And Customer Support was nearly non existent. I am happy to say though that transfering our site from their servers to our new host was a breeze.... Read more

I've been with Ipower.com since 2007. I've had no issues with them I would say out of 365 days my site has been offline for about 0.9 days. Some of these were planned and others where a problem on iPower's Provider for Internet. I felt frightened when I read a review after purchasing hosting. Not to worry i've never experienced any of what some people say about iPower.

I've been with iPower for 3 years and in the first 6 months thought I'd made a big mistake. However, this company has gone from strength to strength and it is now difficult to find a negative point about them.

They are incredibly bad. 2 VPS e-com sites were lost by them. They said the clients did not pay their bill, when they had, and iPower just deleted them! No emails or warning. Many problems with shared hosting. Moved 19 clients off them forever. Support? They lie to you.

IPower was very easy to set up and get things going. And the site was up nearly all the time. Our site did get hit with a virus and all of the team lost their email a couple of times. (NOT COOL) The worst is that I've been trying to close my account for over 6 months and finally had to bring the Credit Card company into the situation.
