#13For a cloud hosting company, there are few basic essentials:
* Support - live, tickets, email, phone etc.

#15There's a lot of information missing from your page that I'd want to know before even considering becoming a customer... Where is/are your datacenter(s)? What virtualization technologies are in use? What type of hardware is in the physical hosts? What operating systems are supported? Minor complaint: clicking "Enterprise" or "Education" in the footer opens up a new mail message. That's not what I wanted nor what I ex…
To add to your suspicions, the website layout is exactly the same as one of the new bootstrap v4.0 themes, and is just as vague about it's product. (http://themes.getbootstrap.com/products/marketing)

#16You are loading two HTTP assets on your landing page, resulting in security warnings for mixed content.

Show HNers - If I've hit the bottom of the page and I click on a "Features" link, or heck, any link in the footer I do not want to jump back up the page. I already scrolled past it. It doesn't give enough information. Either have a separate page that goes into more detail or don't link in the footer! I'm at the bottom of the page, you're safe to assume I already went past the part you're linking to!

#20Marketing page copy: "Unlimited 1GB servers" FAQ when signed in: "Each plan has a maximum capacity for the amount of servers its allowed to create.
