“Superb, as always! We have used Dogsbody Technology for over 7 years to support the webservers we use in our business. This most recent engagement was a project to build four updated servers across two clouds, create all of the configurations in Saltstack and support us in migrating services.
The transition went seamlessly with minimal downtime, and a high degree of effective collaboration between their engineers and ours.
I’ve worked with a lot of IT providers in my career, none of them come close to the ethos and skill you get from Dogsbody.”– Trustpilot Review (12 May 2023)

Dogsbody have provided us with excellent service over the couple of years we’ve been with them. Their customer service has been superb, they always respond quickly and with good suggestions.

“An absolutely sterling company to work with. Dogsbody truly understand the concept of B2B support, and expertly assist at whatever level of support is required.
They have a deep understanding of all things Linux, and anything that is outside of their comfort zone they will be honest about, meaning you can rest assured that they will absolutely get the job done, and get it done right.
They approach your problems with a tenacity that can only be described as dog-with-a-bone tenacity, pun absolutely intended as this is exactly how they operate. Never once have I felt I have been sidelined or put on the back burner.
Further, they very quickly and very professionally adapt to support you and your level of experience and knowledge. They won’t undermine you, treat you like an idiot, expect you to understand what they are talking about and absolutely will not try to throw techno-babble at you. They are experts in explaining complex topics and scenarios at any level required, and will never hide, obfuscate or withhold anything. They can be as hands on or hands off as you require and are perfectly happy to do the job if you ask them to, if you aren’t comfortable doing something yourself, but at the same time aren’t even remotely precious about it, and will happily provide advice and guidance if that’s your preferred method.
I can’t commend them enough! They have never once disappointed with their response times, their efforts or professionalism. They are an absolute pleasure to work with and their support costs, also tailored to your requirements, are absolutely reasonable.
Dogsbody have, time and again and without any hesitation, proven themselves to be a B2B support business by which other businesses should be measured by.” – Trustpilot Review (05 Feb 2021)

Great company to deal with and excellent customer support.” – Trustpilot Review (31 Jan 2021)
“Dogsbody improved the reliability, security and monitoring of our many services, while also improving and documenting how we manage our deployments using SaltStack. It is a relief to entrust these critical functions to such a capable, proactive team!”
“When we decided we needed to upgrade our Hosting Services for our clients we reach out to Dogsbody. Patrick Kelly our Founder & Managing Director had met Dan the owner of Dogsbody at networking events previously and he was always so passionate about his company. We arranged to meet and discuss our needs in detail and Dan emailed over a couple of pricing options that would meet our requirements.
We decided on a route and Dogsbody took care of arranging the purchase and completing the set up of our server and scripts very quickly. Their communication is excellent and the team is very professional and friendly. Since working with them none of our clients’ websites have experienced any downtime and should there be an issue they advise us very quickly and will recommend the best course of action. We look forward to a long relationship with Dogsbody and would recommend them at every opportunity.”
“We’ve been dealing with Dogsbody Technology for over 10 years. We have a number of customers with in-house Linux systems but no in-house expertise – we rely on Dogsbody to sort out some pretty hairy configuration problems. These guys really know their business.”
“On behalf of the Committee I would like to say a big thank you to you all for making what seemed to me an enormous task take place so seamlessly.
Also you all managed to do this during one of the strangest times when nearly everything else came to a standstill. The new website is a joy and has removed a weight from my shoulders at least. Websites are wonderful things but only if they are kept alive and fresh and this I think we are now able to do”.
“I am a small business and they meet my needs and always endeavour to address any technology queries I may have which I really appreciate, as someone who is in business, and strives with the ongoing struggles of ever-changing technology. Thanks again for the professional support with a personal approach”.
Very efficient ,always willing to help, great advice, service is 10/10

“I have used Dogsbody hosting for my website since I started my website. I didn’t consider any other companies as Dan is friend of mine and I knew he and his company would look after mine and help me through the jargon. We have been through changes both my website design and server switches since then and always Dan and the team are happy to talk me through my end in words of one syllable! They have time for me and my no tech knowledge whenever needed. I would not reccomend [sic] any other company!!”
“Dogsbody Technology have managed my website for a number of years now, and I have received a very quick, friendly and reliable service from them. I would highly recommend them.”
“The staff at Dogsbody have been very helpful. Everything runs smoothly but if I have a query or a problem they are right on it. They don’t even mind that I am not technical at all though they do try to inform me on the “hows”! I know I can rely on them and that helps me to focus on my own work as a counsellor.”
“I’ve known Dan for years, he used to work for me and he was a great asset back then. I’m really impressed how he’s identified a gap in the market, filled it, and continues to look at new and innovative ways to build the business. I still use their services and continue to be impressed by their technical offerings, their corporate and social responsibility as well as pushing apprenticeship schemes.”
“Growing a business has been compared to swapping all the parts of a car while driving it. Dogsbody Technology have helped us get the best from our infrastructure as the goal posts have moved, adapting to new technologies and the issues that they can bring.”

We value their commitment and professionalism.”

Gary helped out with some tricky InfoSec questions from Friday and Rob just sent over the Pen testing which is great stuff … Loved it.
Thanks to you and the guys, great business support there!”
Sent with a mixed case of beers 🙂
“To the Dogsbody Team, Thanks for all your help over the last year or so, with so much change happening here it’s been complicated to say the least. Looking forward to working with you again when I get back”.
“We came to Dogsbody with a setup that just didn’t work for us and a poor service from our previous supplier. They built us something that matched our requirements perfectly with a solution that far exceeded all our expectations and has been a complete success. Their vast knowledge and professional approach sets them apart. Well Done Gary and the team.”
The service is great and support is so quick to respond.
Really happy to do business with you guys, I recommend your service to my friends.
“You are so efficient!!! It looks amazing, exactly what I had in mind!!!
I’m really grateful for your help and advice earlier and I appreciate the ideas”
“I would like to commend you on such fantastic work keeping everything secure. It’s not very often we see such well managed networks. Well done on the implementation of such an effective information security strategy.”
“Dogsbody Technology and namely Dan, have provided an excellent service, really helpful and knowledgable. Additionally our site’s availability has been exceptional. We would highly recommend them.”
“We couldn’t run our business without Dan and his team. We rely on them 100%. They’ve always delivered.”
“We know you internally as our crack team of Linux commandos, keep doing what you’re doing.”
“I just wanted to thank you again for your work. My server has been running really smoothly since you made your changes with no downtime which is excellent.”
“I just wanted to say thanks to you both for all your work since January. We definitely could not of done it without you.”
“We brought Dan onboard a few months ago to host our site and look after our web security. The transfer to the new server was a tricky brief, but Dan handled it with the minimum of fuss and the minimum of stress for us.
Now that Dan is at the controls, I am free to concentrate on writing content for my site and delivering to my clients. I no longer have to worry about any technological issues. Dan is always at the end of the phone and e-mails are answered promptly and thoroughly.
I have no hesitation in recommending Dan for any SME looking to outsource its hosting, web administration and web security. Having been through a number of cowboys ourselves, it’s been a pleasure to find a guy who knows his stuff backwards and whom we can trust.”
“I employed Dan to deliver a new Amazon EC2 Linux server for the migration of a Symfony / PHP based e-commerce platform. He delivered the platform quickly, helped with supporting UAT testing and resolving issues, and has provided prompt out of hours tech support when Amazon pushed a PHP patch which disabled the site on the busiest trading day of the year.
He has great knowledge of the sys admin aspects of Linux, PHP, Symfony and MySQL. I commend him without hesitation.”
Dan worked with us for 3 months to improve our DNS and Domain management areas and delivered a first class solution to give us full visibility and control of business critical IT components (as promised) and handed over an ongoing process to manage it effectively. He also provided valuable insight into virtualisation architecture based on his previous deployment experience.
Dan’s professionalism, knowledge, determination and attention to detail are excellent and I would have no hesitation recruiting him again if the opportunity arose.
Dan was employed to help simplify and outsource our DNS and Domain registration services.
This project has delivered great improvements; cost savings, ease of administration, extensive documentation, and reduced risk to the business.
He took great ownership of the project, led it through a difficult phase with ease, and the migrations of our key domains were seamless.
Dan’s excellent technical knowledge, worldly understanding, and thoroughness have made this change a great success. I would highly recommend Dan, as he is a joy to work with, and would be only too pleased to work with him again.
“The service we found at Dogsbody Hosting was extremely impressive. They were quick and responsive to our numerous amendments and managed to explain the process and technical information to us very clearly. We are completely satisfied with the end result and really appreciate how straightforward they made it to get our website up and running”
“I’ve used many hosting companies – but never one that provides such good value, and great service as Dan’s. Dan’s attention to detail, and personal customer service has saved me from problems on many occasions & I would wholeheartedly recommend Dogsbody Hosting to anyone seeking a stable, secure and well supported web host.”
