Launched in 2013, Waxspace India is a full-fledged web hosting service with its Indian headquarters in Pune. It makes use of its Waxspace sister company’s data center at Delaware, U.S.A., plus several additional server locations around the world.
Known for its affordable prices, this provider has more than 50,000 customers worldwide.
The well-designed Waxspace website is English, and (as is common with hosting companies) its client support pages are available in about 25 additional languages.
Features and Ease of Use
Waxspace India has an impressively long list of web hosting services including (but not limited to) shared hosting, reseller hosting, cloud hosting, VPS hosting, dedicated servers, and CMS hosting. Waxspace’s shared hosting plans come with:
- 99.9% uptime guarantee
- Unlimited disk space
- Unmetered bandwidth
- Free CDN
- Free SSL certificates
- Website builder
- 1 to 10 add-on domains
I like the fact that Waxspace India targets both beginners and established businesses. Like many hosting providers, it provides the Softaculous one-click installer within cPanel as a simple and flexible platform for installing multiple applications with a single click.
Waxspace can also register over two hundred top-level domains, and it offers a selection of SSL certificates including Domain Validation, Organization Validation, and Wildcard Certificates.
You can choose from several different server locations worldwide, and you can take advantage of the Cloudflare CDN to provide geographically dispersed website visitors with improved page loading speeds. Waxspace India’s sister company also has its start-of-the-art data center that uses Cisco routers and switches, auto switchover, top-level security, and dedicated UPS.
Pricing and Support
Waxspace India offers a range of Linux and Windows hosting plans. Its Linux shared hosting packages come at a relatively low cost with plenty of personal and enterprise-level features including unlimited disk space, unlimited bandwidth, and unlimited email accounts.
You can pay for your hosting subscription using PayPal or a major credit card, and you can start using the services relatively risk-free thanks to a 30-day money-back guarantee. This potential “get out” is a good thing because you might want to take advantage of the substantial discounts for committing to up to three years.
Accessing support with Waxspace is a breeze. The company provides 24/7 live chat and ticket support channels, as well as remote assistance through AnyDesk. However, I encountered a live chat agent who seemed less knowledgeable about the offered services. To ensure accuracy, it’s advisable to verify the provided information with the ticket-based support team.
For self-support, Waxspace offers a reasonably extensive knowledge base plus a set of posts on the company’s blog.
