Cons
Con Renewal is expensive, especially multi-year which should be discounted
Hover is reliable. But their days of being price competitive are past. There are better options out there. They've lost their customer focus in this regard. Taking advantage of existing customers with high renewals is poor practice in any business.
Con Email forwarding costs extra
Email forwarding costs an extra $5 a year per address per domain, and they do not support catch all forwarding to all addresses.
