Intro
"A bit about A Small Orange"
A company that proudly proclaims that it is "not your average web hosting company", A Small Orange is a smaller, almost boutique, web hosting service. Our review team were very happy to find that they don't offer unlimited plans that end up billing clients more than what they bargain for in upgrade fees and bandwidth add-ons, and instead they strongly believe in elastic pricing and flexible plans so that users pay only for the resources that they actually use.
We found A Small Orange pretty easy to use to create websites tailored for personal use or for small businesses, and it is significantly cheaper than a lot of competitors. If you have hosting needs that are somewhat basic, and you want to save money however and wherever you can, check out our review of A Small Orange because we think this could be a good place for you to start.

Plans
"Choosing the right plan"
Because there are just a handful of options from which to choose, A Small Orange is an easy and straightforward hosting provider to work with. If you want to become a reseller, you have the option, and if you have business needs, you have an option for that as well.
Depending on your budget, you may or may not want shared hosting, and depending on your need for control, you may or may not want dedicated hosting with root access.
The bottom line, however, is that if you want to run things in a somewhat offhanded way and want to focus on your business, and want to save money and not spend it where it isn't needed, A Small Orange's shared hosting plan or cloud VPS would be perfect for you.

Reliability
A Small Orange does not support Windows servers, meaning that the company does not even cater to a considerable chunk of the hosting market. WordPress is supported, but there is no managed feature for it. In terms of uptime, you can lock in a 99.9% uptime plan, but if you want truly high-end features and services – you may find them lacking in comparison to other choices.
A Small Orange is a good and reliable host if your needs are modest, but it does not offer quite a few important functionalities and options that other hosts do.

Security
"What security measures does ASO have in place for its users?"
A Small Orange has a number of security measures in place to ensure that its users and their websites are safe and secure. They have Advanced Policy Firewall (APF) and Brute Force Detection (BFD), antivirus software for your hosting account, the option to block a region or country from viewing your site, as well as many others. With ASO you won’t need to worry about the security of your website. However, if you do have any worries or questions, the customer support team are on hand to help.

Customer Support
A Small Orange has ongoing and comprehensive training for all its employees, and they are consistently encouraged and challenged to find new ways to improve customer experiences. In fact, people are the core of everything that A Small Orange does, and the company has built an extensive network that consists not just of employees but customers and online communities.
Customer service, integrity, trust, and relationships are key focus areas of the company, and they really show a lot of customer love and care.
Despite the great live chat and email support – tech help is not available by phone, which is disappointing. We also found that when it comes to technically complicated issues involving advanced servers, A Small Orange is somewhat behind what the competition. However, if you're after personal, customer oriented service at a reasonable price point, you'll do well to consider ASO.

Features
"What does ASO offer?"
Our review of A Small Orange found some basic features that they bring to users which are pretty much the standard when it comes to hosting plans. There is shared hosting, which enables users to take baby steps in growing their online presence, as well as business hosting that has business-specific customizations and is in the high-end tier when it comes to professional hosting. Reseller hosting is also available for anyone wanting to rent out resources for a quick profit, and a great cloud VPS option that allows seamless scaling of resources for when you need them. Finally, a dedicated server option is more powerful and features a high level of customization is on offer for users who want nothing but the best web hosting service.
Depending on your level of comfort with building and launching your own website, our ASO review team found there is also an easy-to-use website builder with drag and drop functionality, web designing services that allow custom building of WordPress sites, and managed server hosting in which ASO will manage everything for you so that you can stay focused on your business.
