What we are saying:
After reviewing, fatcow’s seems to offer a product called premium service for $14.95 a month. I’m not sure if this is a great thing as all hosting companies should come with great hosting for free. That’s actually one of the major key rating pointers on having great hosting, but then again their service might be good enough so you might not even need support service.

This I think is definitely and option and is not necessary. It’s quite pricey for what it’s offering so if you really need protection for the website your planning to run then this might be an option.

MySQL Database

August 18, 2009 · Filed Under FatCow Database · Comment 

Website says:
“MySQL is a simple relational database tool for easy content management. We offer phpMyAdmin to help manage your tables and data structures from any web browser. Each MySQL database can have an unlimited number of tables, and data is limited only by your disk space quota. Have more than one user managing your database? No problem, you can create additional users for each database. Our handy database management tool let you add, drop, and manage grant privileges from a browser”

What we’re saying:
It’s great that they’re offering unlimited mysql database but they are asking for a $2.50 for an additional user to be added on. If it’s cpanel then you should be able to do multiple database with one user but it might be a security risk.
