I have been with GoDaddy for close to 10 years. In the beginning they were pretty awesome. The tech support, product offerings, and pricing were all excellent. In recent years the tech support has become a disgrace. Like so many of these dumb asses, I have to tell them how to do their job and school them on the basics because they don’t understand the issue most of the time. The hit and miss nature of the level of support is terrible. I have to spend way too much time on the merry go round of tech support to just get a competent support person. Furthermore, being pressured to buy other products at the end of our “support session:"is beyond ad nauseam. Within the last year, they have become more aggressive by contacting me by phone during prime business hours to discuss options offered with their services….What? or rather WTF?

A few years ago I was orphaned by GoDaddy when they decided to dump “Easy Database". Since then, the company they recommended (Zoho) we contact to resume the service has been nothing short of a train wreak. The hand off for this was sold as a seamless and quick migration. Ya, you guessed it, another nightmare! Between the minimal person to person contact and, of course language barrier issues, the pain on this was so intense that after three weeks of trying to get this done, we abandoned the Zoho intiative in favor of a complete restructuring using Word Press. I just don’t get how these companies expect to be meaningful when they pull crap like this. BTW, to add injury to insult the Zoho offering was about three times the cost of the old Easy Database offering. It used to be that GoDaddy was tech savvy and very reasonable in cost, but no more.

Now, they have become the gouge king. So sad! Their marketing program has suspended all discounts for renewals which made them attractive. Perhaps they had to do this to pay for all the wreaked cars Danika was leaving in her wake…..
