    • Some people may find that having a team located in Melbourne who are available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week via emails, eTickets, and phone support is worth the extra 9 cents per month.

      If you haven't spoken to our team recently, we recommend giving them a call to see how we can help you! :)

      • nah ill use someone else, you guys ruined DnD Studios did so ill avoid

        • Hi Tuzii, it's been quite a while since we dealt with DnD studios' customers and can honestly say that we've spent a number of years improving our customer support and quality of service since then!

          Maybe it's time you gave us another try? We're currently running a nifty promotion on web hosting that will see you save 75% on your first invoice! Give us a call any hour of the day, any day of the week and one of our lovely Melbourne-based support staff will help you out. :)

        • If you're talking about the way they handled that from a customer service perspective, fair call. I'm sure they learnt plenty from a crisis management perspective. But from an operational point of view? DnD's plans were not sustainable, and indeed they came to VIP asking to be bailed out. (Apologies to Dean Walsh if this isn't correct). I know it's not enjoyable as a customer to experience that, but you can't expect a business to maintain that which isn't sustainable.

      • "We are adjusting your pricing to more accurately reflect the value of the support service now included in your plan, but given our ability to leverage our economies of scale we will only need to ADD $1.00 PER MONTH to your existing plan price from your next renewal date."

        9 cents eh? I assume you mean 9 cents… times 11, then add another cent. $1 might not seem like much but considering I use you as an email server it meant a 20% increase in price per month for an option I don't want, don't use and can't opt out of.

        You could at least be honest about it.

    • looks sus

  • I hope the dinosaurs are only in plush form and not the basis for your servers :)

    How bout a prize plushy for Ozbargainers?

    • Our servers have some bite to them but are definitely sturdier than our Ventrasaurus plushies. ;)

      We may have something special for OzBargain sometime soon!

  • So sad. Was really looking forward to completing my set. I don't need a domain or another hosting. Could have renewed though for the free plush.

    • +1

      We promise there will be plenty of opportunities for existing customers to pick up a Ventrasaurus Rex! :)

      • Thank you. I will keep my eyes peeled. My girls love their dinos.

    • +2

      I just completed my set by buying them… I support VentraIP by using their awesome services, and with an opportunity to promote them more, I didn't even hesitate to buy more plush. I'll now have a full set.

      Thanks to VentraIP, who I've watched grow large, but still stay humble and awesome.

      • Thank you for the kind words and years of loyalty, ExtremeDavo. We're glad to hear that you've had such a great time with us!

        We sincerely appreciate each and every customer and will continue to better ourselves in any way possible. :)

  • I missed out on the Triceratops, going to try and win the Ventrasaurus on Facebook this year :D still have over a year left on my hosting so no need for a refresh yet :(

    • +1

      If you miss out please don't hesitate to contact our sales team who may be able to help you out. :)

      • Haha will do, my girlfriend loved the original one :D

        • They're extremely adorable and are quite a hit with the ladies (and men!). It's hard to choose which one is our favourite!:D

  • +5

    I can definitely backup VentraIP when they say they've got good support. When I used them they were great solving issues at the early hours of the morning.

    I'd almost order this just for the plushie :)

    • +2

      Thank you for the kind words, Clear. We appreciate all customers, whether they be past, present, or future!

      If it's been a while since you were with VentraIP Australia, you'll find our support has gotten even better now that we're 100% Australian and are available 24/7 on eTickets, emails, and phones!

        I actually went to Zuver during a promotion for personal use.

        • +1

          I use zuver for low traffic weather management site
          it does the job, good value too

  • Is the Ventrasaurus Plushie sent out automatically or should I have added it to my cart during sign up?

    • Hi Wish, the Ventrasaurus plushie will be sent out automatically and requires no further action from you once payment has been made for your new purchase. :)

  • Damn I only just paid for my domain for the next 9 years yesterday on Zuver, if only I knew then.

    Does anyone know if this special applies if you transfer back from Zuver? Was a previous 9web buyer then went to Zuver for the price but now Ventra is cheaper lol.

  • Whilst OzBargain is all about bargains, purchasing web hosting based on price alone is a huge mistake. I highly recommend VentraIP in terms of reasonable pricing for a highly reliable service with high standards of customer support.

    75% off WHM Multi hosting is a huge deal, $119.85 for a year instead of $479.40. I am tempted.

    • It is a shame they don't look after their existing customers with decent discounts. I have been with them for the last 2.5 years and although their cust service is good at full price it is too much to pay for what is basically a hobby.

      I'm currently on the lookout for another company to transfer toward the end of my 3rd year.

      • Why don't you register for a new hosting account using a different email address and the usual 50% off coupon code?

      • they look after you by keeping your site online and by keeping the servers going
        I am not sure what you expect out of a hosting company, sure its a good feeling having a small discount applied for renewal but have you actually spoken to the team and asked them to help you out, I am sure they could come to some arrangement

        Complaining here really doesn't do you any favours, they do offer Zuver which is their budget line of hosting and its fine for the hobbiest sites I run, good pricing too, you just can't expect them to slash 50% off because you feel the right to it being an existing customer

        I am sure the service has been reliable for you and whilst there are other cheaper options I keep coming back to ventraIP based on their overall service, uptime, bandwidth amounts and pricing, you do get what you pay for and I am sure they (VentraIP) would love to offer you something as an existing customer if you are polite about it and simply raise your concern via a ticket.

      • Which costs too much, the domain hosting or the web hosting? Everybody pays the same for domain hosting, bar a little discount here and there and if it's a .com.au domain, it's a business expense.

        For web hosting for sure there are cheaper alternatives, including Zuver, but you get what you pay for. If it's a personal site you could wait until CAW and register a new site.

        • I register my domains through another company but my hosting stays with Zuver aka VentraIP
          prices are cheaper overseas for domains but do remember you get what you pay for and I have had some horrible experiences and usually just go through VentraIP directly

          It all depends on your business, anyone seriously running a website for their business would probably go through a bigger company with more swing on pricing but in no way is VentraIP a bad choice, I have had nothing but good experiences with every step of my hosting journey, any issues I did have they have always offered a fix or credit etc

          domain prices vary based on a few factors though, most companies register their domain 10 years in advance to benefit from the best pricing and assurance their domain won't be taken if it lapsed for a certain period

  • Been with them for over 8 years, never had a drama, always prompt and fast service
