I recently dumped my dedicated server I had with Layeredtech. One of the reason was that we weren’t using it all that much and it was just eating our money, plus the recent slowdowns they been through. Still had 42 cpanel accounts there that needed to be moved. As I already had an account with Hostican I thought I should just put them there cause they fit. I asked if it’s possible to move so many accounts and they said it was ok and I should just submit a ticket about it. Said and done, I submitted a ticket with the login data on the server and gave them the “Go”. A few minutes later I received a reply that they will get on it in a few minutes. It was late for me (about 11 PM) and decided not to stay until they finish so I just pointed the nameservers to the new reseller account and went to bed.

In the morning I had a mail in my inbox saying that my accounts were successfully transferred. Looking by the time of the message, I think it took them a little more than 2 and a half hours. I went to modify the cpanel space quotas so I wouldn’t be off after the move and checked some of the domains. I saw some domains wouldn’t resolve after the move, but this is the problem with cpanel, sometimes it forgets stuff during a move, still it was nothing a 6 minute support ticket couldn’t resolve

It’s been a week+ since the move and didn’t noticed any dowtime or other problems. This is another A+ from me to Hostican for fast support and great service.

Later Edit: I thought that their setup fee is a killer for those who want to use their service and don’t have enought money to pay yearly to escape it so I worked with them for two discount coupons that take the setup fee out of shared plans for 3 and 6 months.

So, it’s justreviews-3 for the setup fee taken out of a 3 months subscription and justreviews-6 for the 6 months one on both shared plans.
