Although Newsys was established as a web development company in 2013, it didn’t enter the hosting arena until 2016. This Indian host offers high-quality hosting solutions to small and mid-sized customers, and (according to its website) it has accumulated more than 500 customers to date.
The English-language Newsys website advertises shared hosting, domain registration services, and SSL certificates.
Features and Ease of Use
Newsys offers seven Linux shared hosting packages (SSD Budget and SSD Shared), including a seven-day trial package. According to its website, this company will soon start offering reseller hosting solutions, and meanwhile, the SSD Budget Linux shared hosting packages provide you with:
- 99.9% uptime guarantee
- 1 GB to 2 GB disk space
- Unlimited bandwidth
- cPanel control panel
- CloudLinux OS
- 2 to 5 MySQL databases
- Support for multiple PHP versions
- 5 to 10 email accounts
- Daily malware scans
- Weekly backups
The Softaculous one-click installer lets you install many popular applications, including e-commerce apps (e.g., Magento) and CMS systems (such as WordPress). Once your website is up-and-running, you can secure it with a free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate.
Hosted websites sit on the LiteSpeed web server, which is far faster than the Apache alternative. The RAID 1 storage replicates stored data to help guard against potential disk data disasters.
Pricing and Support
You can purchase the SSD Budget Linux shared hosting packages at very affordable rates on an annual or biennial basis. Additionally, the SSD Shared hosting packages are available for purchase on a quarterly or semi-annual basis.
You can pay in Indian rupees or U.S. dollars via various methods (e.g., bank transfer, Razorpay, and Instamojo). At the time of this review, 20% discounts were available for first-time customers.
A seven-day trial package allows you to try before you buy, and the 30-day money-back guarantee should get you out within the first month for a full refund if anything goes wrong.
You can try contacting the 24/7 support team via telephone, ticket, email, contact form, or live chat, but I have to tell you that my contact form submission went unanswered. I was pleased to see a surprisingly comprehensive knowledge base linked from the vendor’s main website (not from its WHMCompleteSolution client site):
