What’s Great About FM Enterprises?
- 10% discount coupons via their web site
FM Enterprises give out discount coupons worth 10% from their main web site. While the 10% discount may not seem big, if applied to a yearly subscription, the amount can be quite substantial. Be on the look out for other coupons as well, such as from web hosting directory pages.
- VPS and dedicated server hosting packages also available
Another good thing about FM Enterprises is that they offer you other types of hosting solutions, as well. If you want to try out VPS hosting or dedicated hosting for a more powerful and reliable service, you can easily upgrade your package to avail of those.
- Affordable packages
FM Enterprises’ packages are more affordable compared to their competitors. A closer look at the inclusions will make you realize that there are much more features packed into their hosting plans compared to other companies.
- Free transfer of data
If you are coming from another hosting solutions provider and need to transfer all of your data to FM Enterprises, they will assist you in the transfer for free. This is very encouraging since it will help you get to a fast start with their hosting services and at the same time, help you troubleshoot transferring issues that may arise.
What’s Disappointing About FM Enterprises?
✖ Linux-only support
Being a Linux-only solution is just about the only disappointing thing about FM Enterprises. This does not severely limit their customer base but there are still quite a number of Windows developers out there that want to have platform and OS consistency when they develop.
✖ Better customer support
Customer support in the hosting industry is either excellent or needs a lot of improvemet and unfortunately, for FM Enterprises, they need to beef up their staff. Not just in terms of speed in handling issues but in terms of their knowledge especially for the more advanced users. It is definitely easier to maintain existing customers and an efficient support team should be able to do that. There are a number of reports that trouble tickets are not being addressed at all.
The Bottom Line
If you are looking for a hosting company that is based in Pakistan to partner with, then there are very few that can beat what FM Enterprises offers. But if you are looking for a more flexible, internationally-used partner then you should go and canvass for other providers out there.

The main reason why I’ve…
The main reason why I’ve used FM Enterprises was because my friend from Pakistan recommended it. Well, he told me that he was having a great time with it so I decided to give it a try. I guess there’s always a difference when it comes to location since I was experiencing some problems with it. Well, I gotta give some credits for their affordable packages. But with their connection speed, it was just really slow. Just last month, I’ve decided to switch to another one that’s based here already in Singapore.
