Review Summary
Generated using AI from real user reviews
Apps4Rent earns strong marks for responsive support and reasonable pricing but faces serious credibility damage from major service outages.
The overwhelming majority of reviewers praise the company's technical knowledge, quick response times, and 24/7 availability. Customers consistently highlight helpful individual support staff members and note that issues often get resolved on the first contact. QuickBooks, SharePoint, and Exchange hosting are frequently mentioned as well-executed services. Several reviewers explicitly contrast Apps4Rent's low prices with premium quality—a rare combination they appreciate. The onboarding experience and migration assistance also draw consistent positive comment.
However, a cluster of recent 1- and 2-star reviews describe a ransomware attack that left customers without communication or service access for extended periods. Reviewers report being kept in the dark for hours or days, sitting on hold for hours, and facing abandoned chat sessions. The complaints centre on poor crisis communication rather than the attack itself; competitors are cited as sending multiple daily updates. One customer also reported unexpected billing ($1,000 charged against a supposedly capped $2/hour plan), though this appears isolated.
The contrast is stark: 42 five-star reviews versus four severe one-star reviews tied to the same incident. For most workloads and timeframes, the service appears reliable and well-supported. However, prospective customers should weigh whether the company's crisis response procedures meet their risk tolerance.

“While they brag about their security, they were attacked by…”
While they brag about their security, they were attacked by ransomware. Clients like us have been in the dark for 24 hours. Their business is supposed to be hosting securely. Obviously they don't. This is unforgivable.

These guys are scammers. Paid for a capped plan, supposedly 2USD/hour of usage and ended up paying $1000USD. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

I had technical questions regarding your service. I am looking to use your shared (multi-tenant) Sharepoint 2016 hosting service. Emma was absolutely wonderful, answered all of my questions thoroughly and gave me the confidence to try out your services. I hope your tech support is as good going forward! Thank you.

“I want to make sure I get the message across…”
I want to make sure I get the message across that the support we've been receiving is outstanding. Nash was really great helping us figure out a solution that was right for us and getting us onboarded - I particularly appreciate his time and patience given how modest our requirements are at the present time. When we broke some stuff on our side, Jim and Emma were right on top of it and resolved the issue much, much faster than I expected. You guys have earned yourself a superfan. Please don't change - you absolutely go beyond any expectations I had.
