Hosting Provider Information

The goal of this page is to provide a complete listing of hosting providers that are known to have environments that are either compatible or incompatible with CiviCRM. This will hopefully aid in troubleshooting.

godaddy.com (VPS)
Economy Plan
$29.99/month (monthly)

Drupal 5.7
5.2.4 5.0.45
2.0 John Daharsh
Installs easily on Fedora Core 7. Centos 5 should work just as well. Install Webmin (free web-based server admin tool)  for easier server setup and kill Tomcat to free up memory (auto starts for the Godaddy Simple Control Panel). You'll need to set some file permissions (very easy in Webmin - based on error messages from civi installer) and should up the memory in .htaccess to 64M. I have yet to fully test but so far everything works well.
 
godaddy.com (shared)

        phalseid don't even bother! lousy control panel for database creation
 
hostgator.com 9.99 Any 4.4.4/5.1.6 4.1.22
phalseid still working on it
uses exim for the mailer, so CiviMail won't work&nbsp - Accoring to HG support Jan 17, 2008: At this time we do not support innodb on any of our shared or reseller servers. For this you will need to upgrade to a dedicated server. (nearly $200/mo) Please see: http://www.hostgator.com/dedicated.shtml For details on those packages. ;



strappedhost.com 5.99 + database
Any 4.4.4/5.1.6 4.1.11

Chris Mott 
CiviCRM works well except that CiviMail is limited by outbound mail throttle of 100/hr from Dreamhost anti-spam policy. (200/hr for shell accounts.) DH may be willing to lift the throttle under compliance with strict rules. Shared hosting environment also causes variable response times (less politely, the page load times are crap for some accounts, mainly due to slow MySQL query times)

site5.com multisite plan $8.25/mo with 12 mo commitment
Drupal 4.7 CVS
5.2 .0
  1.6 beta
Dave Hansen-Lange
CiviCRM works well.  If you need more PHP memory, simply adjust your site's php.ini.  Site5 has great support and their plans include everything that you'd ever need (except no Tomcat or Java servlets). 
 
Mediatemple.net (GS grid server plan) $20 / month
30 day free trial 
Drupal 4.7  choice of 4.44 or 5.16 (using 4.44)
4.1.11
CiviCRM 1.6, CiviMail, CiviContribute, CiviMember
Jochen Hartmann
Shared web hosting environment, running on this 'grid-server' thing that mediatemple invented, which is a cluster of apache installations. Seems pretty stable, you have control over your own php.ini settings and fairly good ssh options (debian3.1). Tech support is usually very quick and friendly though there are limits to what they can help with. Looking to upgrade to a DV (dedicated virtual) plan soon.
