DiscountASP has more than 20 years of experience in the Windows related business.
This company is based in the sprawling metropolis of Los Angeles and is trying to bring the glitter of Los Angeles in the world of web hosting.
But is the glamour of this provider’s services as well as its location?
DiscountASP Review: First Glance
DiscountASP offers Windows hosting that is designed to run NET, ASP, MSSQL, Microsoft Access, and other Windows frameworks or technologies.
DiscountASP.net even borrowed a color scheme for its website from Windows.
In terms of its services, DiscountASP makes everything easy with its packages, while providing a wide range of IT functions. I do think that it might not be easy for IT professionals to understand everything that DiscountASP.net offers.
Fortunately, the customer support is robust, and the company is always there to help you understand the many options. Even though there are no ‘live chat’ options, you get quick answers to email messages.
There is also an active community connected to DiscountASP, which I found to be a nice aspect of this provider.
DiscountASP Pricing
Prices for web hosting with DiscountASP are quite simple. They offer a base hosting plan, with users charged for other services that can be added on.
| Base Web Hosting Plan | |
| Price per month | $10 |
| Disk space | 1000MB |
| Bandwidth | 0 |
| No. of domains allowed | 1 |
| SSL included | No |
| Email Accounts | 500 |
| Website Builder | Not included |
| Money Back Guarantee | 30 Days |
| Customer Support | Ticket system, 24/7 |
That makes DiscountASP prices more customizable than other providers. However, it can be argued that it also excludes small businesses and home users due to high costs.
As for the add-on services (which can be added for $10 per month fee) – see some of them in the table below:
| Feature | Price Per Month |
| 500 MB additional disk space | $5 |
| 5GB additional bandwidth | $5 |
| 100 MB additional email storage | $1 |
| Exchange ActiveSync | $2.50 per user |
| Domain Privacy Protection | $0.75 |
| Unlimited Subdomains | $5 |
| SSL | $10 |
| MS SQL Server 2016 | $10 |
| Cloud Backup 5 GB | $1.75 |
That’s a good approach to web hosting as it allows you to create a unique package and buy just what you need.
However, I should also say that there are more affordable window hosting providers than DiscountASP.
Performance
To make full DiscountASP, I ran a speed test to see how well my sites work under their hosting:
It was quite an average result. As usual, the response time in the US is good, not enough in Asia, and a bit behind other providers in Europe.
To sum it up on DiscountASP Review
Feedback from DiscountASP.net was brilliant; the site has an incredible reputation on Trustpilot.
DiscountASP gained much of this reputation from the convenience of web hosting and the stable system it provides.
Despite its name, DiscountASP is not a provider for the lower end of the market – they offer high-quality Windows services at a high price.
Based on these facts, I would be more than happy to recommend this provider to corporate customers.
