Features
NoMonthlyFees.com provides a fairly basic feature set. It includes all the tools necessary to effectively host a website, but does not provide some of the features that the higher ranked hosting providers offer. The data transfer and webspace is also below the average of hosting companies. The following are some of the features that are included in all No Monthly Fee's hosting packages:
- 600megs of Webspace
- Free Domain Name
- 25 GB of Data Transfer
- Unlimited Sub-Domains
- Unlimited MySQL DB's
- Unlimited FTP Accounts
- Unlimited Email Accounts
- FrontPage Extensions
- Personal CGI-BIN
- Server-Side Includes
- Hit Counter Site
- Search Engine
- Super Fast Servers
- UNIX Based JAVA, Perl, PHP, ...
- RealAudio/Video
- URL Redirection
- Anonymous FTP
- FTP Access
Control Panel
NoMonthlyFees.com uses Contol Panel X as their administration interface. With Control Panel X you can administer your webspace, email accounts, directories, cgi-bin, and other special features such as site statistics and shopping cart software.
Support
No Monthly Fees has 2 different types of support. You can either create a ticket, or send in an email to their support team. We have received notification from people that were unhappy with their overall response time and lack of other resources such as tutorials & other documentation.
Reliability
To insure uptime, NoMonthlyFees.com's web servers are custom-built industrial grade machines designed for a 24/7 web serving environment. All servers are equipped with hot swappable drives, dual redundant power supplies and force-filtered cooling systems. As with most other hosting companies, their uptime has proven to be relatively good.
In Summary
NoMonthlyFees.com provides decent hosting packages, but they lack in a majority hosting components. Their feature set is basic, their customer support is not as responsive as it could be, and the reliability is not exceptional. Another downfall to No Monthly Fee's is the fact that their lower end plans ($70 month) do not provide a unique IP address to your site. In our opinion, there are better plans available for your money. NoMonthlyFees.com receives an overall rating of 3/5.
