Their premiere hosting plan is the Guru plan, which at $14.99 per month offers 400GB web space, and 99 cent domain names. When the services of both companies are compared, IX Web Hosting Appears to offer more variety, and the unlimited nature of their plans is not seen in any of the WebFusion (US) plans.
Web Hosting Features
As mentioned above, the features of the IX Web Hosting plans are practically unlimited, with the only difference between plans being the amount of features that are unlimited. Even the cheapest plan (Expert Plan) comes with a free domain name registration, unlimited disk storage, unlimited data transfer, and two dedicated IP addresses at only $3.95 per month. All of IX Web Hosting’s plans include free support and free ad coupons, as well as a comprehensive simplified control panel. Unfortunately WebFusion (US) does not carry a single plan that has unlimited features, as even their most expensive plan (Guru Plan) has a disk space limit of 400 GB, and a data transfer limit of 5000 GB. Since their plans lack unlimited features, it appears IX Web Hosting has them beat in this department.
Customer Service

Web Hosting IX has more employees than WebFusion (US), which may contribute to faster and more reliable support. Other than this, both companies appear to have similar support features.
Recommendations
After reviewing both web hosting companies, our recommendation goes to IX Web Hosting. When considering price, WebFusion (US) may have a lower price for their cheapest plan, but the features offered leave much to be desired. IX Web Hosting offers unlimited features on all of their plans, and even the cheapest plan offers more unlimited features than WebFusion’s most expensive plan. For this reason there is no doubt that IX Web Hosting is a better option when compared to WebFusion in terms of overall quality and affordability.
