CaveCreek Reputation Check

03-16-2009, 08:09 AM

Hey... Are there any patterns of problems with CaveCreek? I've got a dedicated box and am watching my monthly cost spiral up. In particular, have gotten dinged for support costs that I wasn't aware were coming. I'm pretty irked at the moment but thought I should check here before deciding they are sneaky opportunists that I have to plan on keeping an eye on. It might be that they are great and my expectations are out of line. So, let me know. If they are solid than I just need to work on my understanding of their process and how to know what is billable support and what is normal.

Appreciate any feedback...

It sounds like you have an unmanaged server with them?

Have a Dedicated Hosting Plan

I guess I don't have a managed plan with a built-in number of hours of support time. They didn't even warn me about the charges at the time. Just showed up on the invoice!

I got a pretty strong quote from TechieMedia that claims they don't charge separately for support at all. It looks like Techie has a good reputation here on the boards but it is hard to tell who is a company shill and who is a legit poster sometimes.

FYI Techiemedia is by far one of the best in the biz and their support is by far the very best. I have been with them for several years and they don't play any tricks, your package deal is it, no other hiden charges ever. Talk to jim he is the man and his word is as good as gold.

Sounds like you asked for some support and got it, but the support you asked for
was something you really needed to do on your own.

Yeah, get a managed server someplace. You shouldn't pay for support.

Cave Creek is owned by CCBill. So they are solid.
You received the support you asked for, just at increased cost you were unaware of.
I would shop around if I were you for other hosting.

PHAT, MOJO, Techie, etc..

If your server is unmanaged you have to pay extra for the support. It's not their fault.

Like many people already said you should move hosting and why not upgrade it at the same time. Talk to Jimbo over at Techiemedia and I guarantee you he can put an end to all your hosting problems forever.

I would just go to cavecreek and have them take a look at your plan. I am sure they will work something out to get you the right plan.
