Pricing and Support
Affordability does not always have to mean poor quality. Few hosting solutions demonstrate this better than Snel. While practically all three packages are pocket-friendly, they are also some of the most powerful and effective in the Netherlands. Snel.com does not have free web hosting, but given their reasonable pricing, it makes sense to consider trying their hosting solutions. The lowest priced package is the Cloud VPS solution while the highest priced option is Dedicated Servers.
Snel takes support very seriously. The company’s commitment to ensuring that every one of their customers receives uninterrupted, stress-free hosting experience is steadfast. However, they don’t have 24/7 support. Instead, any query you send will be responded to during the working hours. That said, the support team is polite, well-informed, and extremely patient and helpful. However, while the process of upgrading your hosting package is quite straightforward, the process of downgrading is somewhat unclear, sometimes requiring users to call support for help.
But given how helpful their support team is, calling them will most definitely be a delight. When we called them (during business hours) via the phone number they provided, it took us less than a minute to get in touch with someone from their support team. However, perhaps because we had sent an email in the wee hours of the night, it was not until the next morning that the vendor responded to our email. Nevertheless, the email response was a comprehensive, almost a step-by-step guide to help us resolve the situation.
