Research Results
Complete data from comprehensive research across 22+ Indonesian hosting providers with a transparent testing methodology, including uptime monitoring, load testing, and support quality evaluation.
Objectivity goal
At Penasihat Hosting, we are committed to providing comprehensive and unbiased analysis. The details on this page are meant to help you make better hosting decisions based on data, not assumptions.
How You Can Trust Our Reviews
We collect and analyze metrics that can be measured and statistically verified when determining the quality of a web hosting service. We are not like other hosting review websites that rely only on subjective opinion without proof.
Hosting Packages Used
We buy the cheapest hosting package from each provider with a minimum of 500MB storage and pricing below Rp 30.000 per month based on a 12-month term. Server location is chosen in Indonesia.
| Provider | Plan | Approx. Monthly Price | Storage | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DomaiNesia | Personal | Rp 14.900 | 500MB | Indonesia |
| IDCloudHost | Value Cloud | Rp 10.000 | 500MB | Indonesia |
| Jagoan Hosting | Bayi | Rp 9.900 | 500MB | Indonesia |
| HostinganID | Starter | Rp 15.000 | 1GB | Indonesia |
| Kenceng Solusindo | KS-01 | Rp 25.000 | 1GB | Indonesia |
| WarnaHost | Starter | Rp 20.000 | 1GB | Indonesia |
Test #1 - Uptime Monitoring
To measure uptime, we use Uptimia.com with monitoring servers in Jakarta for more accurate results. Remember, an average uptime of 99.00% means your website is down for 7 hours and 18 minutes each month. That is bad.
Average 2024 uptime
Test #2 - Load Testing (20VU)
Using Locust.io from a Singapore VPS, we test the server's ability to handle sudden traffic spikes with 20 simultaneous virtual users. This simulates a "busy visitor" condition.
| Provider | Avg Response | Status |
|---|---|---|
| IDCloudHost | 7,730ms | Stable |
| Kenceng Solusindo | 8,910ms | Stable |
| Jagoan Hosting | 9,670ms | Stable |
| HostinganID | 11,000ms | Failed |
| DomaiNesia Intel | 14,405ms | Somewhat Slow |
| WarnaHost | 49,800ms | Very Slow |
| DomaiNesia AMD | - | Complete Failure |
Important note: some providers such as HostinganID and DomaiNesia AMD struggled to handle 20 simultaneous virtual users. This is important if you expect high traffic.
Test #3 - Technical Support
We intentionally break the test website with an artificial error and contact support by ticket or live chat. Time is counted from ticket submission until the problem is resolved by their staff.
Special Hosting Discounts
We successfully negotiated cheaper hosting prices specifically for Penasihat Hosting visitors. It is our way of appreciating loyal readers.
