Any comments on www.northtrex.com

Hi,

Does any body have any idea about URL

Their offer is pretty cheap, but I am not sure about the company... no contact address given on site.

By the way, looks like it is not hosting oriented company and it was started at 2004, just try something more older at least.

Hi folks,

This is Jean-Francois from Northtrex Hosting. I just visited this site making a few rounds where we placed our banners and advertisements and was surprised to see a thread devoted to us.

To clear up some confusion, we are pretty new company - officially having opened our doors in April 2004. We are a hosting oriented company. We are growing faster than ever as a result of our dedication to customer satisfaction. Most of our new clients are from word-of mouth.

Actually we have more than 70 clients and we're supporting them pretty well.

I am a Canadian, born and raised in Quebec. Our servers are located at ThePlanet datacenter and we have 3 technicians in Canada and one in Australia.

There are a lot of companies offering web hosting services - we believe we're the first to do it right. Even if we are brand new. We give our clients a 30-day money back guarantee. If they are not happy with our services we refund them immediately without any question.

If any of you would like to email me personally, you can reach me at contact@northtrex.com.

Jean-Francois Viau
Co-President
Northtrex

Jean-Francois,

Welcome to the Forums and we hope you will stick around to get to know the others here. As a fellow Canadian I'm always glad to see new people in the game keeping the industry fresh and new.

As a fellow Canadian I have to say this is quite the statement.

Cool HerculesHoster.com Flashback

I don't know about anyone else, but I've been told (on this forum to be exact) that when a company starts advertising "unlimited" on anything, to be leary. NorthTrex.com is advertising "unlimited" on just about EVERYTHING.

I kinda remember HerculesHoster.com offering unlimited on everything as well. All I got out of that was I lost over $100 when they closed up and disappeard off the face of the Earth!

They're not listed on the BBB, but I'd wait to see how they do down the road a couple of years (as their clients grow and their networks get worked harder) before I'd commit any money to them. They're too new and they offer "too much".

They are not offering unlimited on bandwidth or space. Its just on other things and to my knowledge every host does so.
