The Kinsta Truth
When Customers Share Their Experiences
Kinsta has a new website design and claim many things, but what you say isn’t always what you do; they may promise the world, but be prepared for constant calls to upsell more expensive hosting and products when sales needs to hit their quota.
We've got you covered
Customer Service That Never Sleeps
While Kinsta has made damaging claims about our support and CEO helping customers, at Rocket.net we’re available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and always do whatever it takes for our customers.
In 2024, Rocket.net served over 45,000 chats with an average response time of 41 seconds all while maintaining an industry leading 97% customer satisfaction rate.
Bold Claims
20% Faster Than *insert company here*
In almost every competitive analysis Kinsta publishes, they claim to be either 20%, 13%, 26%, or 29% faster than the competitor. It seems very farfetched that so many competitors would have such a common slowness compared to Kinsta.
In fact, in our testing we found quite the opposite. We actually found Rocket.net to be over 6x faster at 86ms TTFB compared to a 569ms TTFB according to SpeedVitals.
Don't just take our word for it
