We have hosted with IP projects for many…
Update- 24.09.25
We would like to update our highly critical previous review. Over the past few months IP Projects have stepped up their game. They have always been super fast and responsive, as are their servers.
----
We have hosted a number of sites with IP projects and for many years.
Earlier this year we wre sent a number of alarmist emails stating our server is going to be cancelled unless we migrate all our websites (dedicated server and fully managed) by a certain date at our own cost, which is not in our hosting contract and not possible for us to do technically. within that time frame and certainly not at our own cost. When we had the time to dedicate to this, we were then told it was too late. I agree; despite their very good level of English support,, the communication and support could have been better, and as such, for long-standing customers, a formal letter and follow up phone call is standard business practice.
We have had and still have minor issues with server-side support, which, despite being a dedicated and fully managed server by IP Projects, including backups, server configurations, optimisations, etc. our developers say they get little technical support. We are often told they are a host, and if the server is correctly configured, it is then our problem to solve.
Yes as we have full root access we could fix all issues ourselves, but hosts who charge for fully dedicated and managed servers should be more collaborative. We are a number of small companies that does not have an IT department, and although we have operated in Germany for 20+ years, it does feel like our issues are a nuisance to them.
Professionalism and politeness have improved, and we hope this continues.
