Our southeast Asia clients love us
Great performance and best technical support! Moved from WiredTree at which I experienced a lot of downtime since the acquisition. I'm amazed how my website's performance drastically improved and is loading fast now. They do have the best support too. Specifically, the technical knowledge compared to other hosting providers. Really glad I switched to Kinsta!
As a busy entrepreneur, working with Kinsta is takes my web hosting experience to whole new heights. Powerful servers, excellent customer support, and an intuitive backend allow me to sleep well at night knowing that my websites are always up and running perfectly.
