General

Globat's pricing structure is very similar to other web hosting companies. Their pricing starts at $4.95 a month and they offer only UNIX web hosting. Even with that, they were still able to offer free setup with a annual purchase of their web hosting accounts. Besides the low price, you get over 5000 MB of storage space and 75 GB of web traffic. Some of the highlights of their hosting plan are unlimited quota size and quantity for MySQL Databases and they are able to accept payment via Paypal.

Reliability & Features

All of Globat's servers are on at least a dual Intel Pentium 3 1 GHZ System. In other words, you will never be on a server slower than a 2 ghz machine. Furthermore, each machine has at least 3 - 4 GB of random access memory. While other web hosting companies may put several thousand users onto one server, Globat puts several hundred users per server. At the moment, they are directly connected to the Level 3 network, which is one of the fastest and most reliable network worldwide.

Control Panel

Globat is using a newer version of Plesk. Plesk is one of the most stable control panel software out there. Even though, it lacks icons for functionality, it offers basically the same features as other control panels such as modification of e-mail forwarding, and modifying and changing password. Plesk control panel also allows you to modify MX records.

Customer Service

Globat offers support not only via telephone, but also live chat through its control panel interface. It seems that the only way of getting a hold of them was through email and trouble tickets. On a positive note, they responded to trouble tickets quickly and activation time for account was less than 5 minutes, which is a big plus. Out of the all the web hosting companies, they provided one of the most comprehensive online help documentations. Their FAQ's, online web tutorials, online ticket system are of top notch quality.

Pitfalls

We think Globat needs to upgrade their outdated control panel and provide users with more comprehensive documentation on their service. Furthermore, it would be nice to have extended phone hours like the top web hosts.

Strengths

Globat provides ample disk storage (3 GB) and plenty of asp installed components. They offer free setup. Their web hosting is also very fast and reliable.

Our Opinion

In general, Globat offers one of the most appealing web hosting packages out there on the web. For only $4.95 a month with free setup, and comprehensive list of features make this host a superior candidate for your hosting needs.
