Their services are excellent and easy to set up
Cost wise went with another provider but still have them keep my domain
I've had their services for almost 20 years! They are very good.
Fast and easy to use webmail service. Great alternative to outlook or other similar email providers.
Unable to adjust mail subject/title preview panel. Everything else works as expected.
Easy to use for communications, emails, attachments and all web mail needs. Great alternative to outlook or other similar email providers.
its nice to be able to kind of set it and forget it as far as paying (you can pay literally up to 100 years). and its fairly easy to set up but there are definitely a number of dislikes.
the website itself is very cluttered and busy. its dificult to navigate especially if you are not a "techy" person. i actually have a web tech help me with all of this and if it wasnt for her i probably wouldn't use it. i was a go daddy user for a little but there websites are cheap looking ( i guess you get what you pay for) and thats no exeption for network solutions. its a little on the expensive side but if you can afford it its well worth it as long as you know how to use it and how it works.
able to serve people worldwide so they can find us, contact us and hopefully give us the satisfaction of there business and gain a client
What I like best about Network Solutions is that it's easy to access the user profile on-line.
What I dislike about Network Solutions is that they don't have better discount renewal deals.

I use Network Solutions because of the price. I also use for my hosting and domain registration. They have good coupons and lots of bundle deals..
The website is time out at times and it’s not friendly. It was an absolutely mess transferring my hosting to them. It took me a while to get it working properly.
I really like that I can host my SQL database, as well my website information and my email all in one location..
Network Solutions is a great online Host for website and domain services. They provide adequate service and cheap domain prices! They offer bundle deals and the use of features is awesome.
No problems or features to be of a problem.
The cure for business is here! Network solutions provides are your website and hosting needs. They tackle are domain .com features .org, .net and many more with website builder tools and assets. The beneifts are tremendous.
I love the new way it looks and how it works. I like dropping the attachments if I don't feel like looking for it. The Portal is great, I like being able to customize it! I use the calendar a lot more now with the upgrade.
Where are notes from the last version? When i updated, they disappeared. I lost a lot of stuff. I wish the mail quota was in a better place, it took me forever to find it.
We use them for everything and I haven't had a problem getting things solved yet. The calendar is a huge benefit for me, and the notification bell as well.
it is as easy as a step by step process
They offer more things than you really need

Easy to use (in the correct browser). Payment methods are simple and easy to align. Customer service is quick and reliable. It is afforadable solution for our needs.
Website does do not work well in Safari. Anytime you make a change in profile or service, you will get constant emails asking to verify or purchase additional "protections."
Network Solutions does offer all-in-one for web hosting, forwarding, etc. They help/sell web hosting for all versions of your internet domains (.org, .biz, etc.)
Ease of use! I had never purchased a domain or a web hosting package prior to using Network Solutions and found that I figured out everything I needed to do without confusion. And reasonably priced!
Sales pitchy. I am a smart consumer. If I wanted the renewal protection, I would have purchased it one of the first times you emailed me about it. I certainly don't want it now on principle of your persistence. On the plus side, they do email frequently regarding renewal, so that protection is a bit redundant - thanks for letting me know that Network Solutions!

I like the ability to manage site SSL and remote accessibly in one place. The site layout is also easy to navigate the sections.
The downside is, the site is not as easy with self service. Although they have tips and help along the way, you would need a dedicated IT person to follow through the required materials.
We solve our website hosting and web security SSL settings for remote access through Network Solutions. The fact that they offer many hosting and security features all in one site is beneficial.
Fairly easy to navigate through the site. I don't get lost in there like i do with GoDaddy. Easy to manage multiple domains as an technical contact - not necessarily registrant.
They don't have the attractive prices like GoDaddy

Easy enough interface, though it's not CPanel.
Great products, poor pricing. You pay a premium for everything even though their products and services are just industry standard. They send a ton of marketing emails. As bad as GoDaddy.

The account area/admin area is a lot easier to use than my godaddy account. Their customer support was also a bit more responsive. Price-wise they weren't great. I just bought a domain through them a few years back to try them out and so far I really like it.
These seem to charge quite a bit for extras and addons.

I like their partner program, which allows us to buy domains at cheaper prices to manage for our clients. They've also been very reliable. We've not had any instances of not being able to access our partner portal or slowness.
The UI in their partner portal. It's very cumbersome. As an example, to request a transfer authorization code, you can't just bring up a domain and request it. No -- that option is nowhere to be found when you bring up a domain. Instead, you have to go to Search > Advanced Search, search for the domain, and from the search results page select "Advanced DNS" from a drop down and click on "GO!" under "Manage Multiple Domains", then check the box next to the domain, select "Request Auth Code" under another drop-down, and click "Go". It makes no sense. But that's even how they say to do it in their documentation. It also has not changed a single bit that I can tell in the many years we've been using it. It's not at all mobile friendly, and even on desktop it doesn't take full advantage of the screen space. Registering a domain for a new customer is also a hassle, and all search forms are over-complicated. You have to select a radio button next to what you're searching by rather than just entering a value, and you can't search by more than one thing at once without using multiple forms.
We manage domains for a lot of our clients. Network Solutions allows us to get reasonable prices on those domains and manage DNS for them if desired.
We host a lot of domains with Network Solutions--they have never gone down & their DNS "just works". The admin panel is well designed. We also use them for all of our SSL certificates.
Their support, even at the platinum level isn't great. They are also way too expensive for domain name registration compared to GoDaddy etc.

I like that Network Solutions is easy to use.
Often times my emails to clients go to their SPAM folder.
Network Solutions helps my business stay in contact with our clients.
the one on one time with a developer when we were designing our new site
trying to schedule time to schedule a call to review changes
we updated our out of date website with their help and have received multiple calls from it
Getting domain and website up were both easy and cheap
Configuring and checking e-mail is next to near impossible they continuously charge you and are not upfront about it
My website is finally up with my own domain at an affordable price
Easy to set up your website with a new domain and supposedly inexpensive
They arent upfront about what they are going to charge you so I suggest read the fine print
I now have my website up and running with my own domain but can't access the included email account
