So I am moving my website from DiscountASP over to their Everleap solution that is cloud based. I am a little nervous since it's been nothing short of excellent service from DiscountASP for almost 13 years now. But, technology has changed and this is a definite upgrade. And besides that it's so much cheaper than the old method of charging per database and such. I have 10 databases so at $10/month per each I was already starting out at $1200. The new Everleap has it all rolled into their single site with 10 databases maximum at $20/month. And it has double the disk space along with free SSRS. Anyway - I just wanted to put this out there that theirs is a very reliable and responsive service. When I post a ticket I'm pretty spoiled. At times I'll just hang around staring at my inbox since I expect an answer in a few minutes. Mostly I'm not disappointed. If you're looking for a viable alternative to AWS and such then this is it.

Run the other way
Run the other way. No support, virtually no communication. DiscountASP.net sent a payment reminder to my IT tech, not to me, in November. Without warning, DiscountASP.net stopped hosting my domain 5 days ago so I can't receive any e-mails or faxes. I have sent 2 emails offering to pay and my IT tech has opened 2 tickets. After IT guy provided the information requested by DIscountASP.net, they closed the ticket without resolving anything. He opened a second ticket and can't get a response at all. Given that I'm an attorney and not having email or fax is paralyzing my firm, I would appreciate a call from their legal team sooner rather than later. There is absolutely no support from this company.
Response from DiscountASP.NETFeb 18, 2020
We can understand the reviewer's frustration, but the claim of no communication from us is not right. We send renewal notifications to the account owner, which in this case, was the reviewer's IT tech provider. Our records on the account owner did not contain the reviewer's contact information - so we would not be communicating with the reviewer. When payment was not received, we contacted the account owner several times and we received no replies. Prior to cancelling the account, we suspend accounts wherein the website is not accessible. Even with the website being down, we received no replies or tickets. Therefore, for this type of situation of abandoned site, we will cancel the account. The other unfortunate situation here is that the Domain Name was also not paid for - thus we did not renew the domain. From my review of the tickets, the reviewer emailed us twice and we responded twice but the emails bounced since the email was using a domain name that had expired. No other contact information was provided in the ticket so our team could not contact the reviewer. Please contact us using a different email address and also provide a phone number and we can get in contact with you to see what can be done to resolve the situation.

I created a .NET Core web application in Azure. But after my free credits ran out it was costing me over $80 a month. So I switched to DiscountASP.NET. I was able to deploy the web application without any changes and my exiting domain name was very easy to change over. I could not be happier.

Great choice for aspnet hosting but lack of support for recent versions of aspnet core. It is also a little bit pricey.
Response from DiscountASP.NETDec 30, 2019
When a new version of .NET Core comes out, we don't blindly install it on our servers. We do some testing and also review what the .NET Community people are reporting back about new versions. Therefore, there will be some time lag before new versions are installed on the server - that is if you want to use Framework-Dependent Deployment (FDD). However, we also support Self-Contained Deployment (SCD) so you can use any version of .NET you want by packaging the required libraries and runtimes for your code. If you have any questions about SCD, just reach out to our technical support team.

Guaranteed speed and stability
I started using the hosting services of DiscountASP.NET in December 2010 and was pleasantly surprised at the stability and speed in comparison with other hosts that I used in the past. Based on this experience, I also moved a Joomla website to DiscountASP.NET earlier this year and was delighted to witness the increase in speed and stability even on mobile devices. Over the past 9 years, I have also received excellent customer service from the DiscountASP.NET support team.
