Stefany93 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Howdy, So I have been using my current hosting for 3+ years, however it has PHP 5.2 which was made in 2006 and it has gotten kind of pathetic. It didn't bother me until I tried to upload my Laravel project, and well, after a couple of hours trying to make it run, it turned out that the minimum for Laravel is 5.3.17 PHP so I guess the time has come to change my beloved hosting to another one. I looked over some options, but I am confused and need your help. Any hosting to recommend with the newest PHP version support? Since also that way I could test my PHP 5.5 programs and of course soon, I hope, PHP 7! Also would be great if the hosting supports Perl 5.16 at least, but not too important. Many Thanks!

Stefany93 Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 OVH are lame. They asked me to send them my ID card and paid bills for my house. I mean, WTF?

scootstah Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 OVH is fairly solid but absolutely zero support, except for hardware/network issues. You're completely on your own. I would recommend Heroku or DigitalOcean for a cheap VPS. If you don't have much experience managing a server then Heroku is perfect.

fastsol Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I personally use http://ixwebhosting.com Their support is great and very helpful. I had a shared hosting account for years with them and I think they finally updated to at least php5.4 but I could be wrong cause I only use their dedicated server hosting now and I can set that to what ever I want. Their shared hosting uses I think Centos control panel and is not the greatest. I have clients that use Hostgator, NetworkSolutions and I think BlueHost. All seem totally fine and use cpanel so you can generally get whatever you need setup.
