Applause for CiviHosting
July 04, 2014, 09:48:40 am
We hired a Drupal developer to do some work on our site, which they insisted they do on their Amazon hosting. 

As we were setting up Git for their work, that developer had no idea we were on shared hosting and that I did not install Git and Drush myself.  For that, they commented that I had made a wise hosting choice, whereas prior to that, they kept trying to convince me to host with one of the well-known Drupal-specific hosting companies or manage my own space on Amazon (which I have no interest in dragging my organization through).  Working with CiviHosting is EASY.

The kicker is that when they delivered everything back, I ran into an array of issues trying to get everything back into our CiviHosting account.

The CiviHosting support has been OUTSTANDING.  There was a myriad of issues caused by the developer that CiviHosting untangled.  I believe CiviHosting went above and beyond in fixing the issues encountered.

I'm dealing with a somewhat unresponsive developer heading into a holiday weekend with a go-live date of Monday, and it's our hosting company that is bailing us out. 

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I would love to try Civihosting, but unfortunately their shared plans don't allow more than one web site, and the cost of a VPS ($250/mo) is way too high for us.  I wish they had some in-between plans.  I'd be willing to pay up to about $50/month for a web host that supports Drupal and Civi well and allows a handful of web sites on one account.

so from the civihosting website for $45/month (or $60/month) you can get 3 sites which seems to meet your criteria

p.s> no financial or any other interest in civihosting, other than wanting to see them succeed in a big way :)

We have a Drupal multi-site install with 5 or 6 sites.
