I had used 3 past providers before migrated to Asphostportal. I'm .Net developer and I always use Windows hosting. Based on my experience, Godaddy is the worst Internet company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with! Their control panel is painfully awkward to navigate, their support will leave you running around in circles for hours and if you want to renew a domain name, they try and force you to use "domain protection" which should be free anyway but costs $30-40 per year on top of the renewal.

I also had a windows server with A2, I hosted multiple sites when they got hacked and it ended up being down for over a month with no updates at all besides 'we are working on the issues', no estimated times offered or anything. When the servers returned they were months out of date so the 'daily backups' that you pay for don't exist either.

So far, Asphostportal is the most reliable .net hosting providers. My clients also happy with them. I will stay longer with them.
