SHIFT HOSTING LLCReviews of shifthosting.com

Fair pricing and solid service so far. Aaron and his team have been wonderful to work with and more than accommodating. They have made it as simple as possible for me to migrate away from my "big box" cloud provider and regain control of my costs and infrastructure. I'm using a combination of services from budget VPS to bare metal depending on what my needs are. It's great to have the flexibility to choose the right solution.

Shift runs an exceptionally well thought out network, particularly from a peering perspective. Lots of extremely useful BGP communities and a great mix of connectivity. As an example: they connect to Cogent, but don't use them for transit (unless you want them to). If you know, you know! Super reasonable pricing and responsive support that feels like talking to a trusted colleague. Checks all my boxes for a trusted vendor.

Shift has been great to work with. We originally signed up for IP transit to supplement our ingress blend with their transit, primarily for DDoS mitigation, since Shift makes GSL available. However, we now push around 90% of our egress traffic across their network as well. The number of Tier 1 carriers available makes them hard to beat for the price. Their team is extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with, and we look forward to working with them for years to come.

Aaron and his team went above and beyond to help us out on a Saturday afternoon/evening to troubleshoot a new install. They didn't hesitate to pull in extra engineers, were highly knowledgeable and patient in walking us through full remediation. They have creative answers to each problem and were kind enough to really work with us on what is probably a very small account to them. 5 Stars all the way.

Been using their VM and IP Transit for 2 years now, and everything has been reliable. Although I've been a small volume customer, their team treated every tickets and incidents of mine seriously. I would recommend Shift to anyone looking for hosting/transit services in Chicago. If you don't believe me, just give them a try.

Good service, great support 10/10 would recommend

I was colocating a server with another provider in Chicago for years. When that company closed down someone from the data center recommended Shift Hosting. They've been great. Aaron drove all the way from Texas to Chicago to personally supervise the transfer and reconfigration of the equipment. Shift's pricing is very competitive as well. I strongly recommend them.

A+++ Company. Have known and worked with Aaron for over a decade. Always knowledgeable and helpful when needed. Always prompt to respond and resolve any issue. We are a 24x7x365 operation so a good network and reliable support are a must.
