“simple setup”
Pros
Getting started with it has been very simple and on the few occasions I ran into issues, the support team did an excellent job walking me through everything. They also provide several tutorial videos that make setting up a website much easier to follow.
Cons
Didn't come across anything to dislike. They've done a really good job making the platform very user-friendly.

“helpful support every time”
Pros
Whenever an issue comes up, customer support sticks with it until it's fully resolved, no matter how long that takes. The technicians are friendly and usually get things fixed pretty quickly.
Cons
I don't have any complaints at this point since they've consistently been helpful.

“patient support is good”
Pros
After not using my reseller account for quite a while, I needed some help getting back into things and the assistant I worked with was incredibly patient the whole time. They walked me through everything and I was able to accomplish what I needed to do.
Cons
Really don't have any complaints. I've found the company to be very satisfying to work with overall.

“Saved my site!”
Pros
So when I moved my website over to WordPress, it unfortunately kept getting hacked over and over. Richard and JD from their tech support team were amazing,they restored access to my site each time and also took the time to guide me through installing plugins that would help protect it from future attacks. Huge thanks to both of them!
Cons
No negatives to mention so I am only filling this in because the field is required.

“constant downtime and no fix”
Pros
There's very little here to appreciate. Once they changed or upgraded the server, the website started going offline 3 to 4 times a day. Their explanation was "excessive CPU" even though this same site had run for 5 years without ever having that issue.
Cons
They convinced me to pay for Managed Hosting at $40 per month and I went ahead with it. Now the site has been down for 24 hours and even after 3 phone calls asking them to restore it, I'm still waiting and the website is still not working.

“good uptime”
Pros
Taking help from the VPS technician, RV, went well beyond what I expected. He really knew his stuff, helped me pinpoint the issue, answered every question I had and even showed me how to make the changes myself if I ever needed to. He took a creative approach to figuring out the disk problem and got it resolved quickly. That's been my usual experience with their support,you get connected with a knowledgeable US-based technician who takes the time to help and stays with the issue until it's fixed.
Cons
Don't have anything negative to say.. I'm still extremely happy with the service. My VPS is basically at 100% uptime month after month, they keep a close eye on the server and send notices when necessary and the tech line is always there when I need it. Very happy overall.

“Loved using it”
Pros
So if I ran into any issues, Eric from the tech support team was incredibly knowledgeable, upbeat and genuinely committed to helping me get everything resolved.
Cons
At times, the issue I'm dealing with feels like something that could have been flagged much earlier. The support itself is excellent but it tends to be more reactive than proactive.

“Helpful support”
Pros
One thing that really stands out is how courteous and knowledgeable the phone support team is. If the first person can't fix the issue, they're willing to escalate it instead of leaving you stuck. I've dealt with plenty of hosting companies that either refused to help or tried to blame the problem on me but when I brought those same kinds of issues to LP, they actually worked through them and got them resolved.
Cons
Every now and then, I run into a missing program or an outdated upgrade. At one point, they didn't offer a specific Python library I needed which forced me to move that program off LP and onto my own private server. That was definitely frustrating although I also understand they can't realistically provide absolutely everything for everyone.

“It's actually great”

The personal customer service really stands out and it makes the whole experience feel much more connected and human.

Dashboards could use a more modern update and it would be better to have additional security options available.

“Brilliant working”
Pros
Twice in under a week, James JD came through for me and honestly he's the best tech support I've ever dealt with. He was incredibly patient, kind, honest and clearly very smart which made the whole experience so much better.
Cons
Only downside was not being able to solve the issue on my own and having to wait until business hours to get help.

“Great platform”
Pros
Even as they has expanded, they've stayed committed to personal support and direct communication whenever I need customer service.
Cons
From time to time, I run into issues with my email servers but they usually get resolved quickly especially when I call for assistance. Submitting a help ticket though, has been a pretty inefficient way to handle the problem.
