Support was fabulous for many years and worth the extra cost, but over the last year it turned mediocre while prices stayed high, so they have begun moving to another host.

A score out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews, so a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product many people like.

Has been migrating sites off their Liquid Web hosting for the last few months and plans to cut ties as soon as possible.
Picked for being reassuringly expensive, but the host will rip you off, and the managed side is either one-size-fits-all or needs someone who knows how the machine is configured.
A really disappointing experience; IP reputation was the only top-notch thing and not worth it, so they went on to Vultr and then settled on Hetzner.
Left Liquid Web over poor service and saved $100/month with a DigitalOcean droplet and RunCloud.
Looking to move off Liquid Web because the cost is too high for their institutional WHM/cPanel use case, on top of other reasons raised in the thread.

It's how well reviewed Liquid Web is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a service needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed services here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
