Without doubt the most professional and friendly support team i have ever experienced. These guys are really way above any other company i have worked with in the past.
Hi Guys and Gals, I'll just say you all are top notch and go above and behind with support. I've tested many other companies none compare to the expertise you all. Previously I would just get a ticked bumped up to a higher level of tier support etc. with AYK everyone is knowledgeable and prompt. Thank you for offering a premium hosting solution. Warm Regards, Johnny
Best customer service I've encountered anywhere. Great product at a great price.
